Personal impressions
Huawei nova 2 Plus - a great modern smartphone with a good camera, faster processor, capacious battery.
- It is so great that the smartphone can work for a long time and are guaranteed not to be discharged before the end of the day!
- Conveniently, when the smartphone is quickly charged. Even if at the last moment realized that he had forgotten to charge it, you put on a charge, and while he was going to have time to recharge to third.
- Once I was sure that a smartphone is a 4 "comfortable size and everything in that the screen is larger, inconvenient to use. Then somehow gradually became comfortable size 5 "and chetyrohdyuymovy smartphone began to appear small and uncomfortable. And now, and a five-inch screen is too small, and 5.5 "at the time.
- More than once I was faced with the fact that the rather expensive smarftonov was bad sound (and sound like a conversation, and the sound in the headphones). In nova 2 Plus with sound everything is fine: there are high-quality sound with deep bass and good treble of the headphones (and there good volume margin), and great sound in conversation - the interlocutor is heard well and comfortable with the tone (by the way, the stock volume there here).
- Availability Jack 3.5mm headphone jack, too, can not but rejoice.
- fingerprint sensor works perfectly - very quickly recognizes the finger at any angle (even sideways, even upside down), and allows you to instantly unlock the smartphone.
- The camera of the smartphone allows you to take pictures that are not ashamed to publish. Of course, not all the pictures are perfect, but the overall quality is very pleased.
- In the smartphone has a very convenient split-screen mode that allows you to use two applications at the same time.
- Of course there is no way that the smartphone had only one advantage. For me personally, the greatest disadvantage is the lack of NFC. More it is not very convenient, in the list of calls and SMS not pokazyavayutsya avatars and the desired contact in these lists because it is more difficult to find.
In the corporate online store Huawei nova 2 Plus costs 23990 rubles and a gift to give him pauerbank.
