Design: The design of both the Nova 3 and 3i is as same as the Huawei P20 and P20 lite. There is glass on both front and back.

The HiSilicon Kirin 970 (10 nm) inside Nova 3 is a hyper-fast new generation processor which comes along with a Neural Processing Unit (NPU). So, you can do the AI things more fluidly. Besides the phone comes with a 6 GB RAM. So, the performance of the Nova 3 is expected to be great.

Nova 3i:

The HiSilicon Kirin 710 inside Nova 3i is a 12 nm processor which comes along with a image signal processor and a discrete signal processor for video processing. Along with 4/6 GB RAM, the phone is also good in performance as well.

Cameras:

Both the phones are specially camera oriented phone.

Nova 3:

The phone packs dual 16 MP (f/1.8, PDAF) and 24 MP (B/W, f/1.8, PDAF) rear cameras which will be able to capture pictures with high clarity and bokeh effect. The dual 24 MP and 2 MP (depth sensor) front cameras are good as well. They can beautify you with advanced algorithms to make you look more natural and appealing. There is a HDR Pro mode as well. Besides both the cameras are powered by AI. The rear camera can recognize 22 categories of 500+ scenes by learning over 100 million images. You will be pleased by the camera performance of the phone.

Nova 3i:

As the Nova 3, Nova 3i also sports HDR Pro Mode and AI powered lenses. So, the images are seemed to be come good. Although the resolution of the secondary camera is low in the rear camera set up. So, the images will be a bit less clear. Overall you won't be disappointed with the results.

Battery: The battery will last one day in both the devices. As the Nova 3 is powered by Kirin 970, naturally it needs some extra battery cells.


So, the phones are expected to be really good in terms of performance and cameras.
