The OPPO Reno6 5G is truly incredible
I have been using it for a while, can't imagine that this quality comes from the phone without using filters or other apps to edit the picture
The games review experience is really unmatched

    Huawei Nova 9 is good but for me, it is still not viable due to the limited applications installed for the device usually for playing online casino like in casinodays.com

        Phil, 28 Oct 2021Guys guys guys. Do you know why all of the brands put ois i... more*Second of all no screen protection in 2021?*

        Screen protection doesn't garantue ur phone isn't getting damaged.

        *Let alone unsupported OS,headphones jack and other essential stuff phone lacks*

        The OS isnt unsopported, hp jack I agree but alot of phones these days don't have em, and what other essential stuff does the phone lack?

        *500$ phone can't have that omissions*

        Yes, but no. Cuz it doesn't have the ommisions ur talkin about

          Don Hrle, 28 Oct 2021No it doesn't and no it doesn't. No EIS can match... moreI guess u need glasses and stop watching phone cuz u can't read I never said anything about eis. And if u can tread that I was talking about an RYYB sensor

            Nova 9,much like Honor 50 uses fake 10bit screen. 8bit +2 FRC(frame rate control). Thus it's far far away from true 10bit screens like in some OPPO and Xiaomi phones. Just FYI

              Guys guys guys. Do you know why all of the brands put ois into their flagship? Because that a flagship feature. While I know there's been bad implementations of it in the past,Samsung aint one of them. In tech tablets review u can see Nova 9 has huge issues with judder on their EIS in almost all lighting conditions.

              Second of all no screen protection in 2021.? Let alone unsupported OS,headphones jack and other essential stuff phone lacks. 500$ phone can't have that omissions.

                EricDVP, 28 Oct 2021Lol All of the Nova features are inferior or all of the f... moreI'd personally take OIS for night photos anytime my friend. And no Nova doesn't have better night photos from what we see up to this point. Waiting for full review.

                Curved screen eh ye,polls on android authority shown most of people like flat ones.

                  Don Hrle, 28 Oct 2021Curved screen inferior. Night photos especially inferior. ... moreLol
                  All of the Nova features are inferior or all of the flagships features are inferior

                  And excuse me how did you know a52s has better battery??
                  15w fast charge vs 66w fast charge is not important….yes yes you r right
                  We all agree

                    Night photos especially inferior.
                    Eis inferior of ois.
                    Screen more bright more. PPI. 10 bit color depth useful in apps Huawei can't support.
                    Looks are subjective. Someone likes Skoda someone Likes Mercedes.
                    Better battery in Samsung so it negates slightly faster charging.

                    Samsung almost 200€ cheaper in EU.

                    TOTAL DOMINATION

                      Dudenoway, 28 Oct 2021The ryyb sensor makes up for the ois on a52s and it is even... moreNo it doesn't and no it doesn't. No EIS can match OIS period.

The display is better on nova 9(10 bit screen) charging speed is better and on ui vs emui is personal preferance

                          And it doesn’t support 66w fast charge
                          Nova 9 has lighter weight And thinner
                          Nova 9 has better design and it is similar to flagship phones but a52s…..?
                          Nova 9 has 10bit screen
                          And all we know huawei is better in night photos and selfie than other companies…

                                The photos from the main photo camera are mostly terrible, blurred fused details. Especially at this price. I don't understand that the comments here say about a great photo. Can only I see it?

                                    chooyaochuen, 23 Oct 2021Without Google on boards, it's gonna be a tough sell. A sell is always tough but the thing is, there is no use selling Google host machines and Google gets all the data and make money out of what you sell.

                                        rizki1, 22 Oct 2021ahh man the best SD 778G phones belongs to Mi 11 lite 5g ne... moreThe mi 11 lite ne doesn't have as good main cam doesn't have 120 hz (90 hz is okay tho) slower charging huawei is mostly suporior battery wise etc etc. The a52s has slow charging and the nova 9 main cam is arguably better. Tho the uw cam of a52s undouptly wins.
