Editorial report

Hotwav Note 13 Max 6 GB / 256 GB / Global technical sheet

The Hotwav Note 13 Max may suit buyers who want a large display and prioritize pixel density. Its 6.8″ screen has 409 ppi, higher than that of most phones launched around the same time. The trade-off lies in other screen specifications: brightness is 500 nits, refresh rate is 90 Hz, and usable front surface is 70%. Brightness and refresh rate are below most phones of its time, while its screen-to-body ratio is among the weakest.

Performance is worse than most phones launched around the same time. This version pairs 6 GB of RAM with the Unisoc Tiger T606 and records 256,000 points in AnTuTu v10. It has 256 GB of expandable storage and runs Android 14. The 48 MP rear camera uses a 1/2″ sensor; both its resolution and sensor size are below most phones of its time, although the camera overall is typical. The 5,160 mAh battery has typical capacity, but 10 W fast charging is among the weakest.

At 223 g, the phone is heavier than most phones of its time. It also includes NFC, dual Nano-SIM and Bluetooth 5.0. Its overall NeoScore is 4.7, and its overall standing is worse than most phones launched in the same period. This is a choice for buyers who value pixel density and expandable storage and can accept compromises in the display, performance and charging.
