Thinness, design and imaging are the consistent genes of Huawei's nova series. On this basis, the recently released Huawei nova 9 Pro adds more short video and Vlog elements, which is more in line with the current online video trend.
At the same time, the color matching of Huawei nova 9 Pro is also more out of the ordinary, using the new "No. 9 color" and star shine, dual-mirror design, and the main camera has been replaced with 50 million pixels The RYYB sensor significantly improves the imaging effect during night photography.
Next, let’s start with “Color No. 9” to experience this Huawei nova 9 Pro.
Compared with the "No. 8 color" of Huawei's nova 8 series, the "No. 9 color" of nova 9 is more restrained. It is based on blue and purple, and will show some pink under the light. It can be said that it satisfies the aesthetics of young men and women at the same time.
The new "Starlight" process gives the back cover of Huawei nova 9 Pro a unique matte texture. Not only does it look better, but it’s also harder to pick up fingerprints. Of course, this is one of the reasons why Huawei nova 9 Pro can show a more realistic pink color in the sun.
The rear camera of Huawei nova 9 Pro adopts a double-ring design, with the main camera being 50 million pixels, RYYB arrangement, and aperture f/1.9. It is also surrounded by edges, which has a buffering effect on the overall bulge. The lower ring includes an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, an independent depth-of-field lens, and a macro lens.
The nova LOGO on the bottom of the fuselage is different from the matte material of the entire machine. It adopts a relatively shiny design, making the overall look and feel richer.
Generally speaking, the back of Huawei nova 9 Pro is similar to the “big brother” P50 Pro, which also uses HarmonyOS. However, compared with the latter, the color matching of Huawei nova 9 Pro is more in line with the style of young people and can better highlight the positioning of vlogs and selfies.
Coming to the front, Huawei nova 9 Pro uses a 6.72-inch FHD+ (resolution 2676x1236) hyperboloid screen, which supports 10bit color depth, P3 wide color gamut and 120Hz high refresh rate.
The double punch hole in the upper left corner of the screen contains two 32-megapixel cameras, an ultra-wide-angle camera with an aperture of f/2.4, and a portrait camera with an aperture of f/2.0. Paired with full-link P3 color management, Huawei nova 9 Pro can comply with the updated color range from image pickup to presentation, helping users create better pictures and video content.
Built-in Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G mobile platform, Huawei nova 9 Pro controls the body to 186g, which is considered a relatively thin and light large-screen mobile phone. One of the costs is that the built-in battery power is only 4000mAh, but it supports 100W fast charging, and the whole machine is relatively power-saving, which alleviates the battery life pressure to a certain extent.
Images and short videos
With a rear 50-megapixel RYYB main camera and a front-facing dual 32-megapixel portrait lens, Huawei nova 9 Pro not only has the strongest image among nova , and also a better selfie/Vlog device.
Let’s look at the front camera first. With its dual 32-megapixel combination, Huawei nova 9 Pro performs admirably in daily selfies, ultra-wide-angle selfies with scenery, and Vlogs. Can be ordered.
In addition, the two front cameras of Huawei nova 9 Pro support 4K video recording, so whether it is recording scenery or taking selfies, it can be seamlessly connected in the later stage to avoid switching between different resolutions. Switch repeatedly.
Huawei nova 9 Pro also supports automatic switching of the front dual lenses. For example, when taking a vertical selfie, the 32-megapixel portrait camera is allowed to work, and the resulting film is more suitable for Douyin, posting on Moments, etc. After switching to landscape orientation, the phone will automatically switch to an ultra-wide-angle lens to capture more scenery, which is more suitable for selfies with scenery and group photos.
Next is the rear camera. The main camera and ultra-wide angle of Huawei nova 9 Pro have very good imaging effects during the day. The sample is as follows.

At night, the main camera of Huawei nova 9 Pro relies on the RYYB sensor to comprehensively The improvement is obvious, and it can better cope with insufficient light and significantly different environments, but the performance of ultra-wide angle is relatively average.

In addition, Huawei nova 9 Pro is turning on After the AI ??function, the performance in daily night shooting scenes is already very good, so you do not need to deliberately turn on the night scene mode during actual use.
Huawei nova 9 Pro can take good photos even in very low light and in an environment I deliberately created where other phones are already full of noise and lost details.

Samples of other models
However, Huawei nova 9 Pro does not have optical image stabilization, so you should try your best especially when taking photos at night. Be careful, otherwise there will still be a chance of some scraps.
In terms of video, in addition to supporting 4K resolution (supporting 60fps at 1080P), Huawei nova 9 Pro can also support Hongmeng dual-camera shooting, front and rear dual-view 4K recording, and has many built-in Vlog templates, which can Allow users to create movies with one click.

So whether you are a video veteran or have never been exposed to mobile video recording, you should be able to get started quickly using Huawei nova 9 Pro.
Other experiences
As a mid-to-high-end processor, Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G uses TSMC’s 6nm process technology and has four 2.4GHz A78 large cores and four A55 small cores. nuclear.
Paired with the HarmonyOS operating system, Huawei nova 9 Pro performs well in daily applications and daily games. For example, in "Honor of Kings", which I usually play, Huawei nova 9 Pro can maintain a stable 90 frames at the highest image quality.
In addition, relying on HarmonyOS’s soft bus and excellent distribution capabilities, Huawei nova 9 Pro can efficiently collaborate with other Huawei mobile phones, tablets, and computers. For example, screen content is placed on tablets and computers, and the latter's touch screen, camera, speakers and microphones can be called. You can use Huawei's smart watches and Bluetooth headsets to control the shutter for taking photos and videos, and interconnect with other routers and third-party products equipped with the HarmonyOS operating system.
However, the 4000mAh battery capacity has an impact on the battery life of Huawei nova 9 Pro. One hour of 1080P 60fps video consumes 11% of the power, and half an hour of "Honor of Kings" consumes 14% of the power. Overall, the battery life is The electricity is relatively fast.
Fortunately, Huawei nova 9 Pro supports 100W fast charging, which can quickly replenish blood in about 20 minutes. If you don’t play many games on a daily basis, it will still be no problem for a day.
Huawei nova 9 Pro and Huawei nova 9 both use Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G processor and are shipped with HarmonyOS 2.0.1 operating system. Huawei nova 9 not only has a smaller screen of 6.57 inches, but also has a larger battery of 4300mAh.
So in daily use, in addition to the faster charging speed of Huawei nova 9 Pro, reaching 100W, Huawei nova 9 should be close to nova 9 Pro in terms of system experience and other aspects, and the battery life will theoretically be better .
An expert in imaging, it is also a good choice for Hongmeng priced at 3,000 yuan
Based on the usage experience in recent days, we must first admit that Huawei nova 9 Pro has dual 32-megapixel front cameras, and The rear four-camera combination with the 50-megapixel RYYB main camera as the core can not only achieve good imaging effects in most environments, especially suitable for dark light environments, but is also an excellent choice for Vlog and short video enthusiasts.
"Color No. 9", which incorporates new technology, not only has better visual effects and tactile feel, but is more in line with young people's aesthetics. It is also less susceptible to fingerprints and is very suitable for bare metal use.
Finally, here is a brief summary of Huawei’s nova 9 series. As a product priced from 2,699 yuan, this series has pretty good performance and an excellent experience brought by HarmonyOS. It can be regarded as a relatively affordable new choice for Hongmeng. On this basis, the high-end version achieves better image effects and faster 100W fast charging, and is more suitable for users with higher needs for low-light photography.
