The Pova 7 Ultra’s display offers 4,500 nits, 1,260 × 2,800 px and 460 ppi, versus 1,300 nits, 1,080 × 2,436 px and 393 ppi on the Curve. The Curve answers with 2,160 Hz touch sampling versus 240 Hz. For performance, the Ultra combines a MediaTek Dimensity 8350, 12 GB of RAM, UFS 4.0 and 1,717,416 in AnTuTu, while the Curve has a Dimensity 7300 Ultimate, 8 GB, UFS 2.2 and 710,000.

The Ultra also leads on battery: 6,000 mAh and 70W charging versus 5,500 mAh and 45W; it adds wireless charging, reverse wireless charging and bypass charging. Its 108MP main camera, 1/1.67″ sensor, f/1.7 aperture and ultrawide camera give it the photography edge over the Curve’s 64MP, 1/1.73″ sensor and f/1.8 aperture. The Curve retains NFC, infrared and 5G, while the Ultra adds a 3.5mm audio jack.
