Editorial report
Huawei nova 5z technical sheet
The Huawei nova 5z suits buyers looking for a balanced everyday phone with a relatively light body and a sharp display. Its main camera trade-off is the lack of optical image stabilization, so the phone emphasizes a well-rounded specification rather than an especially advanced camera system.
The 6.26-inch IPS LCD display has 1080 × 2340 px resolution and 412 ppi, a pixel density among the best of its time. At 178 g and 8.3 mm thick, the phone is lighter and thinner than most phones launched around the same time. Its 83.4% screen-to-body ratio is typical.
The Kirin 810 works with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of UFS 2.1 storage. Both capacities are typical, while storage expansion is supported. The rear camera setup combines a 48 MP camera with an 8 MP ultrawide and a 2 MP macro camera. Connectivity includes Dual Nano-SIM, USB Type-C, Bluetooth 5.0, and GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS, and BeiDou navigation. A 4000 mAh battery and 20 W charging are also typical figures for phones of its time. Overall, the Huawei nova 5z sits among the typical phones of its time and receives a NeoScore of 4.8.
