Nova 8 Pro 5G is a good year for Huawei
Whatever analysts say in their reports on the Huawei smartphone market. But reality suggests otherwise. Mobile equipment of a Chinese brand, on the street, in a store and cafe, is more common than Apple, Samsung, Xiaomi and other manufacturers. Huawei has shot very well with the NOVA series of smartphones and continues to “skim the cream” on the wave of its fame. Huawei Nova 8 Pro 5G has incorporated all the shortcomings of previous models. And it became much more interesting to the buyer. If things go on like this, then soon we will see a new redistribution of the IT market.

General impressions of the smartphone Huawei Nova 8 Pro 5G
The nicest thing about technologically advanced devices is the price. Huawei Nova 8 Pro 5G, in the performance of 128 GB of ROM, costs 800 US dollars. And even if it does not have a top-end chipset (985 and not 990). But in terms of price-performance ratio, the phone will give a head start to all its Asian competitors.
Even fans of the Sony brand have distinguished themselves on the forums. Judging by the reviews, after the Nova 8 Pro 5G entered the market, Sony Xperia 5 II and Xperia 1 II everyone lost interest. And in general, on the same forums, users are sure that Huawei has unleashed a new battle on the smartphone market in 2021. After all, not every brand will dare to release such a powerful innovative solution and set the price below the psychological mark of $ 1000.
