Introduction
What are the necessities for a brand new mannequin to represent an improve over the earlier one within the collection? Usually, a chipset improve is on that checklist, maybe some enhancements within the digicam division, some tweaks within the show, an even bigger battery or quicker charging – one thing alongside these traces. Effectively, the Huawei nova 11 Professional would not seem to carry any of these – so is there one thing that makes it higher than the nova 10 Professional?
Effectively, the rear design is completely different, for one. Huawei has toned down the beautiful cheesy digicam island styling of the earlier technology and launched two colorways with fake leather-based rear panels and a debossed ‘nova’ sample.
And, as a result of we all know a number of issues concerning the handset already, we’ll spill some tea. Simply because the charging specs are the identical, would not essentially imply the outcomes are the identical – we received some correctly spectacular numbers there.
The nova 11 Professional could solely be doing the naked minimal to earn the proper of incrementing on the mannequin identify, however the 10 Professional already had some strong specs, so perhaps it is not honest to dismiss the 11 fairly so simply. For instance, the relatively distinctive entrance digicam system that features a 60MP ultrawide unit and a 50-ish-mm-equivalent zoom digicam has been carried over and will be simply the proper promoting level for a selfie-crazed crowd.
On the again, the 2MP depth sensor that is been scrapped now’s unlikely to be missed, however the now launched laser AF ought to assist at the hours of darkness and with closeups. And closeups is the place the in any other case modest in decision ultrawide (8MP) can do higher than most, due to its AF functionality. The 50MP primary digicam proved a succesful performer on the previous mannequin too, so we’re not complaining it returns, principally unchanged.
It is sort of an identical story in different areas. The flowery dual-curved 6.78-inch show had each the pixels and the hertz to not be in speedy want of improve. The Snapdragon 778G chip is probably not cutting-edge, nevertheless it stays a strong contender within the midrange house, too. And with a beneficiant 256BG base storage model (128GB on the nova 10 Professional) and a 512GB possibility, you will not be starved for reminiscence both.
