The last Huawei handset I reviewed for ZDNet was the £899 P30 Pro , a stunning high-end quad-camera phone. But Huawei also plays in the middle of the smartphone market, which is where the Nova 5T sits.

Very good camera and screen quality. not very good battery but it charge so fast.

With good looks, quad camera prowess and solid performance, the Nova 5T represents great value for a smartphone in 2019. It packs in a lot of high-end features for its modest price tag, but Huawei has cut corners to make that happen.

Great quad-camera; Large display in a small form factor; Great value for money

No wireless charging; No headphone jack; Screen is only LCD

The Nova 5T is a must-consider in your list of mid-range smartphones, we say ignore the Google Issue as the Nova 5T is surely in the list of Huawei surely to get updates in the future.

Kirin 980 Processor – No jokes about the processor, fitting the 5T with a flagship processor is ridiculously crazy but makes everyone especially techies love the Nova 5T; Dual Glass + Metal Body – Sorry OPPO, Vivo, Samsung, only Huawei was able to be the metal body smartphone at this price point.

No Gorilla Glass – Huawei didn’t disclose the glass they are using for the 5T, upon check checking its not Corning Gorilla Glass; IPS Display – Visual wise, the IPS panel is simply no match with an AMOLED display.

Unlike a number of other HuaweiSmartPhones this arrived with little fanfare. It is that little bit smaller than some and for a lot of people this may seem a good feature, so what exactly has this latest offering to offer the user.

The Huawei Nova 5T will likely be the last Huawei phone to launch with Google's services in Europe, at least until the US trade ban is lifted. Irrespective, with Huawei guaranteeing sustained security updates, it's still a great camera phone given its price.

Premium design; Excellent night mode; Powerful for the price

No telephoto camera; No OIS; No SD card slot; Not available in USA

Pros:; – Beautiful design; – Large display in a small form factor; – Great performance; – Good battery life; – Great cameras all-around

Cons:; – Slippery on all surfaces; – Side-mounted fingerprint scanner takes a little bit of getting used to; – No 3.5mm headphone jack; – No Wireless Charging

The Huawei Nova 5T is a powerful smartphone with a lot of storage and a very elegant case. The fact that the camera is surpassed by the current elite of the cameras can be tolerated, considering the suggested retail price of 429 Euros (~$478).
