The ban did not stop Huawei from releasing affordable phones for the global market. The company just came up with the new Huawei P Smart 2021, but is Huawei still competitive in the affordable segment? There is no better way to understand it than comparing it with other potential best-sellers of this year offering amazing specifications at very affordable prices. For this comparison with P Smart 2021, we chose the Redmi Note 9 and the Realme 7. Is Huawei still able to release something as interesting as the latest Xiaomi and Realme budget phones? Let’s find it out together.

Huawei P Smart 2021 vs Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 vs Realme 7

Design

Due to its huge camera module including a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner, the Redmi Note 9 is not brilliant if we talk about the aesthetics. With their rectangle-shaped camera modules and side-mounted fingerprint readers, Huawei P Smart 2021 and Realme 7 are definitely more attractive. Realme 7 is actually the most beautiful one because of its color variants and more compact dimensions, despite not everyone may like it since it comes with a smaller display.

Display

The winner of the display comparison is the Realme 7 for a simple reason: it provides a higher 90 Hz refresh rate. For the rest, the display specifications are more or less the same as its rivals. Realme 7, Redmi Note 9, and Huawei P Smart 2021 are equipped with 1080p displays, but the Huawei P Smart 2021 has a wider 6.67-inch panel, while Redmi Note 9 and Realme 7 stop at 6.5 and 6.53 inches, respectively. Besides getting a higher 90 Hz refresh rate, with the Realme 7 you also get a higher 480 nits brightness.

Specs & Software

Realme 7 wins even when it comes to the hardware department. It is powered by a stronger Helio P95 chipset by MediaTek, which is naturally better than the Helio G85 found on the Redmi Note 9 and more powerful than the Kirin 710A found on the Huawei P Smart 2021. Besides packing a better chipset, Realme 7 has a higher-end memory configuration with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of UFS 2.1 internal storage. There is no challenge: Realme 7 is way better under every point of view. Further, note that the Huawei P Smart 2021 does not have Google services installed: they were replaced by Huawei Mobile Services due to the U.S. ban.

Camera

Realme 7 actually comes with a better main camera than Redmi Note 9 and Huawei P Smart 2021 on its rear camera setup. We are talking about a Sony sensor with a 64 MP resolution and f/1.8 focal aperture. Just for this reason, Realme 7 is a better camera phone. The secondary sensors are similar to the ones of its opponents, including the 8 MP ultrawide camera and a pair of 2 MP lenses for macro and depth info. Even the front camera is actually better with its 16 MP resolution.

Battery

Realme 7 and P Smart 2021 pack a 5000 mAh battery, while Redmi Note 9 has a 5020 mAh unit. Realme 7 has an inferior battery life because it comes with a 90 Hz display which is more energy-demanding. Redmi Note 9 should last more thanks to its standard refresh rate and smaller display than Huawei P Smart 2021. On the other hand, Realme 7 features a faster charging technology with a 30W power.

Price

Redmi Note 9 is priced less than €200/$230 globally, Huawei P Smart 2021 costs €230/$270, and Realme 7 starts from €174/$203 in India and it is still not available globally. Realme 7 wins this comparison thanks to a higher refresh rate, better chipset, and cameras.

Last week, the names and codenames of certain upcoming Huawei devices leaked. Now, a new set of both Huawei as well as Honor products heading to Europe leak. But this time around, instead of codenames, we get the model numbers.

The last tip was from Evan Blass (@evleaks) and one of the devices in that list, HUAWEI Watch Fit even leaked extensively earlier this week with renders, specifications, and price.

Whereas, today’s new leak comes from @RODENT950,  another known leakster on Twitter. His list includes nine smartphones and three laptop models. Out of the total twelve products, six each are Huawei and Honor branded respectively. Also, unlike the previous leak, this one clearly says that these devices are heading to Europe.

Having said that, here’s the entire list of new Huawei and Honor devices coming to Europe. Do note that the ones without names are denoted by “xxx”.

Upcoming Huawei Smartphones – Europe

Upcoming Honor Laptops and Smartphones – Europe

Going by the model numbers of the handsets in the Huawei tabular column, the Mate40 Lite, P Smart Pro 2021, and Y9a are basically the same phones with different branding. On the other hand, P Smart 2021 and Y7a should be identical. However, all the products in the Honor tabular column are unique.

That said, it is not sure when these smartphones and laptops will launch in Europe as the tipster merely mentions “soon”.
