performance

Kirin 9000, Mali-G78, 12GB RAMThe 8-core processor and GPU handle demanding Android apps and games smoothly, though this 2020 chipset no longer runs the latest cutting-edge mobile games at peak settings without throttle.

display

6.76-inch OLED, 90Hz, 456 ppiA very large, sharp OLED screen with smooth 90Hz scrolling; outdoors in bright sunlight you'll see color washout because OLED brightness is lower than competing LCD at this price level.

battery

4400 mAh, about 7-8 hours screen-onA moderate battery for a 6.76-inch phone; on typical mixed use you'll need to charge by evening, or sooner if gaming or streaming video.

storage

512 GB, expandable via Nano MemoryAmple onboard storage with the option to add more via Huawei's proprietary Nano Memory card, useful for photos and video if you don't want to rely on cloud backup.

durability

IP68, 234g, 10.1mm thickFully waterproof to IP68, but the phone is heavy and thick by 2020 standards; it feels substantial in hand and pockets, and resists dust and submersion.
