Hotwav Note 12 Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos
Hotwav Note 12 Overview
Hotwav Note 12 - when there is nothing to complain about
The relatively young Chinese company Hotwav, although not the most experienced in the modern market, is definitely one of the most ambitious. If earlier the manufacturer tried to attract the attention of fans of secure smartphones, now it has switched to fans of inexpensive, but extremely balanced and functional phones. The hero of the review became such a product.
The appearance of the novelty is very good, given its focus on the low-mid price segment. The exterior is ready to please with a side fingerprint scanner, an actual form factor of a selfie camera and a photomodule block, and a back panel stylized under the skin. It feels good to hold the device in the palm of your hand, it doesn't feel cheap. Even the frames of the 6.8-inch IPS display turned out to be the same for many opponents. The screen itself is not bad from the point of view of the margin of brightness, the correctness of color reproduction. But the resolution of 1640x720 pixels indicates the mediocre clarity of the output content. There is no increased refresh rate, which is also a bit disappointing.
But in terms of technical characteristics, the device has practically no equal. The UNISOC Tiger T606 CPU is a great solution that has been combined with as much as 8GB of RAM and the Mali G57MC1 video core. The bundle has a number of positive qualities. These include reasonable power consumption, the excellent responsiveness of the Android 13 interface, and the ability to run the vast majority of Android games. Surprisingly, such an affordable device even launches Genshin Impact, even if comfortable gameplay is possible only with minimal graphics settings. They obviously did not save on the battery, because its capacity reached 6150mAh, which guarantees more than ten hours of active screen time. And the charging speed is immodest (18W power). As for the built-in memory, 128GB of ROM can be expanded with MicroSD cards. Such a repository of information will appeal to everyone.
Savings could be manifested in the photo capabilities of the main cameras, but here the gadget does not fall into the dirt face. If the auxiliary sensors are installed purely for beauty, then the excellent 50-megapixel Samsung JN1 module for the price category knows how to capture a detailed daytime shot. And in the evening there is a chance to get a decent picture, albeit slightly spoiled by noise and other artifacts. There is no flagship stereo sound, but the only speaker will not let you miss a call or message. NFC contactless payments are an important addition to all of the above. Thus, it is difficult to even find any significant flaw in a great phablet.
