Editorial report

Hotwav T7S 4 GB / 128 GB / Global technical sheet

The Hotwav T7S may suit people looking for water and dust protection and a high-capacity battery; the trade-offs are its 310 g weight and a camera among the weakest of its time. Its 6280 mAh battery has more capacity than most phones launched around the same time, while 15 W fast charging is slower than on most. Reverse charging is also supported.

The 6.52″ IPS LCD display has 407 ppi, a higher pixel density than most phones of its time. Its 71 % screen-to-body ratio is among the lowest, however, and at 310 g it is heavier than most. IP68 and IP69 protection covers water and dust, while MIL-STD-810H covers impacts and drops. The phone runs Android 13 and has 4 GB RAM and expandable 128 GB storage. The MediaTek MT8788V and an AnTuTu result of 241,300 points place its performance among the weakest of its time. The 21 MP rear camera has lower resolution than most, and there is no optical image stabilization. Connectivity is also worse than most, although the phone includes NFC, dual SIM and USB Type-C.

Overall, the Hotwav T7S is among the weakest phones of its time, with a NeoScore of 4.1. It may suit people who prioritize battery capacity and protection from water, dust and impacts, and can accept its substantial weight, slower charging and modest performance and camera.
