huawei nova 7i huawei nova 5T

Huawei's latest Nova device, the Nova 7i, has made its way to the Philippines. As a member of the brand's Nova lineup, we compared the 7i to another smartphone in the Nova series, the Nova 5T, launched last year. Powering the Nova 7i is a midrange Kirin 810 chipset, while equipped in the Nova 5T is a flagship-grade Kirin 980 processor. The Nova 7i and Nova 5T only offer one configuration, which is 8GB RAM and 128GB storage. The Nova 7i gets a point with wired headphones users as it comes with a 3.5mm audio jack, while the Nova 5T has none. The two devices support Huawei's SuperCharge technology but the 7i trumps with its 40W fast charge, compared to the 5T's 22.5W. Since the Nova 5T was released last year, it's understandable that it runs on EMUI 9.1, based on Android 9 Pie. One thing that the 5T greatly trumps over the 7i is that it's one of the last few Huawei smartphones that comes with Google Mobile Services (GMS).
