Editorial report
Huawei Hi nova 9 SE technical sheet
The Hi nova 9 SE suits buyers who want a large, smooth display and a high-resolution camera; its trade-off is a battery with less capacity than most phones launched around the same time. The 6.78-inch IPS LCD runs at 120 Hz, and its screen-to-body ratio is better than on most phones of its time. At 7.9 mm thick, the phone is thinner than most of those contemporaries.
The camera’s 108 MP resolution is among the highest for phones launched around the same time, while its 1/1.52-inch sensor is larger than most. Its f/1.9 aperture is less favorable than on most phones of its time, and it lacks optical image stabilization. The 4,000 mAh battery has less capacity than most, but 66 W charging is more powerful than on most phones launched around the same time.
This configuration pairs 8 GB of RAM with 128 GB of storage; the phone is also sold with 256 GB. Storage is not expandable. HarmonyOS 2.0, Dual Nano-SIM and Wi-Fi 6 round out the listed features, alongside an AnTuTu score of 395,000 (v9). Overall, the phone is typical of phones launched around the same time and has a NeoScore of 5.7. It makes most sense for buyers who prioritize display size and camera resolution over battery capacity.
