Starting
today you can get your hands on the Huawei Nova 2s Zhang Yixing variant priced
at 3399 yuan (US$ 516) and with a ship date of December 24.
Those who are not aware, Zhang Yixing better known
by his stage name Lay is a Chinese singer, songwriter, dancer, and actor. Many
should recognize him from the South Korean-Chinese boy group Exo. Shortly, he
is one of the most popular celebrities in China as well as South Korea. He has
been one of the promoters of this amazing handset.
Anyway, this is a good chance to recall the selling
points of the Huawei Nova 2S. The device sports a 6-inch full-screen with a
Full HD+ resolution, 18:9 aspect ratio, and it’s covered with a 2.5D arc glass.
We can find a Kirin 960 SoC under the hood. This is a 64-bit octa-core chip
paired with a Mali G71 Octa-core GPU, 4+64 or 6+64GB memory combinations. But
the Huawei Nova 2S Zhang Yixing special edition is packed with a 6+128GB
combination.
The most interesting feature of this
phone is the camera. It comes with a dual-camera using 16MP RGB and 20MP
monochrome sensors with f/1.8 aperture,
LED flash, PDAF, and 4K video recording on the back. As for the front shooter,
it comes with a 20MP sensor (f/2.0 aperture) and a 2MP sensor placed above the
display. It’s not difficult to guess this phone supports facial recognition.
Apart from this, the Huawei Nova 2S Zhang Yixing
limited edition runs on EMUI 8.0 based on Android 8.0. And finally, this
handset sports a 3340mAh battery and tons of great connectivity options such as
