Editorial report
Huawei nova 5i Pro technical sheet
The Huawei nova 5i Pro may suit buyers after a mid-range phone with several cameras, ample storage, and a broad set of connections. Its main trade-off is software support: it does not support direct operating system updates, a point to weigh for anyone who prioritizes keeping Android up to date.
The 6.26-inch IPS LCD display has a pixel density of 412 ppi, among the highest of phones from its time. The display overall is above average. Its 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage exceed what most phones launched around then offer. The AnTuTu result of 234,437 is also above average, and its performance hardware stands better than most.
The camera is better than that of most phones of its time. Its 48 MP resolution is higher than most, and optical image stabilization is included; there is also an 8 MP ultrawide camera and a 2 MP macro camera. It has no optical zoom. The 4,000 mAh battery capacity is average, while 20 W charging is above average. Connectivity is also above average, with dual SIM, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, and a 3.5 mm audio jack.
With a NeoScore of 5.1, the Huawei nova 5i Pro stands out most for its cameras, storage, and connectivity. It is worth considering for buyers who value those strengths and can do without direct operating system updates.
