The potential of the camera has, but to disclose it can be only in the manual mode.
Video can be shot in 4K resolution. The quality is excellent, jerks and no slowdown. Stabilization helps greatly. But here's the problem with sound recording: the first moment everything is fine, then the sound is as if through cotton wool.

Instead of firm Huawei processor in the smartphone chip from Qualcomm. The unit works very quickly, and it's even a bit surprising.
Hauwei Nova Plus supports LTE with two SIM-cards. On the outskirts of Moscow, speed reached 40 Mbit / s. Location on the satellites is determined by a couple of seconds. With the quality of communication is no problem, but the earpiece volume may not be enough in the street or in the subway.

The display is bright and clear

Artificial sound system failed

Built-in amplifier in Nova Plus, but there DTS Headphone technology: X, which simulates surround sound. And it is not just a marketing ploy - a noticeable effect.
With Headphone: X soundstage expands, it becomes bigger and bass. Music like surrounds you on all sides. You can complain about except that the volume on the stock: enough. In normal mode, the sound is flat and featureless - as in the budget smartphone.
With the software "uluchshayzer» Headphone: X audio gets better and more volume. But to feel the need decent headphones, complete no good.
The external speaker is also impressed. Though he is one, but gives surprisingly loud, deep and clear sound. Watch movies on your smartphone and play - a real pleasure.

Opinion Hi-Tech Center

Huawei Nova Plus - beautiful and nice smartphone, but the price he has weird. In Europe it is 430 euros - more than 32 000 rubles in terms of our money. Obviously, the lower the cost is lower in Russian 30,000 Chinese fail.
For the money emerges weight than alternatives. Get at least the most powerful smartphone in the world One Plus 3 or 8 Honor - Huawei flagship sub-brand with a cool dual camera like P9, and P9 Plus.

Few? Then let us remember about the flagships of the Meizu and Xiaomi MX6 Mi5, svezheanonsirovanny LeEco Le Max 2, cheapened up to 30 000 last year Samsung Galaxy S6 and informal price for Samsung Galaxy S7, which has dropped below 35 000.
It turns out that not a single reason to recommend Huawei Nova Plus to buy at us yet. In our opinion, the smartphone has turned out interesting, but greater than 25 000 rubles worth it just should not.
