Huawei nova Y90 technical sheet
The Huawei nova Y90 suits buyers looking for a large display with a high screen-to-body ratio; the trade-off is its 90 Hz refresh rate, which is lower than that of most phones of its time. Its 6.7-inch IPS LCD display has 1080 × 2388 resolution and 391 ppi, both typical specifications. The 89.1% screen-to-body ratio is better than that of most phones launched around the same time.
This version pairs 8 GB of RAM with 128 GB of storage. The phone is also sold in 4 GB / 128 GB and 6 GB / 128 GB configurations. Its Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 processor and eMMC 5.1 storage are part of the setup, while the display refresh rate falls short of what most phones of its time offer. The camera has a typical-for-its-time 50 MP resolution and records video at 1080p at 30 fps. The 5000 mAh battery capacity is also typical; fast charging is rated at 40 W.
The nova Y90 has no Google Services, a notable limitation for anyone who relies on them. Overall, its specifications are typical among phones launched around the same time. With a NeoScore of 5.1, it is an option for buyers who prioritize a large display and a better-than-most screen-to-body ratio over a higher refresh rate or Google Services.
