Editorial report

Huawei nova 8 SE Vitality Edition 8 GB / 128 GB / China / AL60 technical sheet

The Huawei nova 8 SE Vitality Edition suits buyers looking for a large display in a relatively light phone, with a smaller-than-most battery as its main compromise. Its 6.6-inch screen has a 1080 × 2400 px resolution and 399 ppi density. The 89% screen-to-body ratio is among the highest of phones launched around the same time; its 179 g weight and 8.4 mm thickness are also better than most on those measures.

The Kirin 710A comes with 8 GB RAM and 128 GB of expandable storage, a straightforward configuration with room to add storage. Its AnTuTu v8 result of 130,000 is lower than that of most phones launched around the same time. The 48 MP, f/1.8 main camera is typical for its time and lacks optical image stabilization. The 4,000 mAh battery has less capacity than most, while 40 W charging is faster than that of most contemporaries. The phone also has dual Nano-SIM, a 3.5 mm audio jack and Bluetooth 5.1, but no Google Services. Connectivity and the phone overall are typical among phones of its time. With a NeoScore of 4.6, it is best suited to buyers who prioritize a spacious screen and light build over a large battery or standout performance.
