The name Huawei as a smartphone manufacturer may still feel foreign to some Indonesians. Huawei’s name is still inferior to other manufacturers from China, such as Oppo, Vivo, and Xiaomi, whose advertisements always appear on television screens every day. Yes, even though it is somewhat inferior, in fact globally, Huawei has succeeded in becoming a smartphone vendor with the second largest market share in the world. Huawei is in second place behind Samsung and above Apple in third position.
Like most smartphone vendors from China, Huawei has priced its smart phones at a price that is quite affordable so that it can attract the interest of many people. Although the price is affordable and tends to target the middle class, the features it brings are features that are commonly found on premium class smartphones.
After being introduced to the public in August 2022, Huawei officially brought the Nova 5T series smartphone at the end of September 2022. The Huawei Nova 5T comes with five embedded cameras. On the front there is a selfie camera with a resolution of 32 MP which is located in the punch hole on the top left of the screen. While on the back there is a 48 MP main camera which is paired vertically with a 16 MP ultrawide lens, a 2 MP macro lens and a 2 MP depth lens.
For the kitchen sector, the Huawei Nova 5T is powered by the Kirin 980 chipset with 7nm fabrication which, apart from being famous for its tough performance, also promises optimal power usage efficiency. The existence of the Kirin 980 chipset is supported by 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage space. Meanwhile, the Huawei Nova 5T graphics processor uses the Mali-G76 MP10.
The Huawei Nova 5T smartphone is available in two color options, namely Crush Blue and Midsummer Purple. In addition to presenting toughness in the kitchen runway and photography sectors, the Huawei Nova 5T is also equipped with various additional features that can be an added value for this phone. These features include fast battery charging 22.5W, fingerprint, and NFC to support convenience in digital transactions.

The following are some of the advantages of the Huawei Nova 5T:
1. Complete Camera
Huawei Nova 5T is equipped with five cameras as its flagship. There are four rear cameras and a front camera. The rear camera has a configuration of 48 MP + 16 MP + 2 MP + 2 MP which is equipped with a gyro-EIS sensor to maintain stability when shooting video. The front camera has a resolution of 32 MP which is located in the punch hole in the upper left corner of the screen. Both sides of the camera have also supported artificial intelligence features such as AI Beauty and Super Night Mode.
2. Kitchen Runway Tough Performance
With the combination of the HiSilicon Kirin 980 chipset and 8 GB of RAM, 128 GB of internal storage, and the Mali-G76 MP10 GPU, the Huawei Nova 5T is very comfortable to carry out various multi-tasking activities and also play various heavy games. Mobile phones like this are suitable for office workers with high mobile activity.
3. Fast Charging Features
Even though it is only equipped with a Li-Po battery with a capacity of 3750 mAh, the Huawei Nova 5T supports the 22.5W fast battery charging feature. This feature is claimed to be able to charge from 0 to 50% in just 24 minutes.
4. NFC Availability
In this era of digital transactions, practically the NFC feature is clearly needed for security when sending files or for using e-money. And this seems to be understood by Huawei by embedding this feature in the Huawei Nova 5T series.
Disadvantages of Huawei Nova 5T
Besides the excellent features embedded in the Huawei Nova 5T, there are also drawbacks to this phone, including the following.
1. No Anti-Scratch Protection
The Huawei Nova 5T screen which is quite wide is still not equipped with a scratch-resistant screen protector. For users who want to use this phone as a gaming phone, of course, they must prepare additional funds to provide scratch-resistant protection on the screen so that it remains smooth even though it is often used to play games.
2. No External Storage Slot
For users who often store large files on their cellphones or also users who often do video recording via cellphones, they need to be considered again when choosing this cellphone. This is because Huawei does not provide additional slots for external storage from the Huawei Nova 5T series.
3. No FM Radio

Conclusion

For users with busy mobile activities or for users who often exist on social media, the Huawei Nova 5T is the right choice. The performance of a capable kitchen runway with various supporting features makes this phone very worth it to have.
