Editorial report
Huawei nova 14 12 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet
Huawei nova 14 suits buyers looking for a slim phone with a large OLED display and a versatile camera setup. Its main trade-off is software: it has no Google Services, which matters to anyone who relies on Google apps and services.
The 7.2 mm body is among the thinnest of its time. Its 6.7-inch OLED display adds 120Hz, Always-On Display and HDR Vivid. The 5500 mAh battery is typical for its time, but 100W charging is among the fastest available then. Reverse charging is also included.
The main camera combines 50MP resolution, a 1/1.56-inch sensor and optical image stabilization. Its 3x optical zoom is among the best of its time, while the main camera’s f/1.9 aperture is worse than most phones of that era. The 12GB RAM capacity is better than most phones of its time, although overall hardware performance is typical. HarmonyOS 5, the lack of Google Services and the absence of direct OS updates shape the software experience.
With an overall NeoScore of 7.0, Huawei nova 14 is typical among phones of its time. It is best suited to buyers who prioritize optical zoom, fast charging and a slim design, and who can accept the limits of Huawei’s software ecosystem.
