HiOS (Android 11)

6.9-inch FHD (1080 x 2460)

CPU

MediaTek Helio G85

MEMORY 6GB

CAMERA 48MP + 2MP + 2MP + AI rear, 8MP front

There’s a single front-firing speaker (also the ear speaker) located above the punch-hole camera. It’s pretty loud with minimal distortion at maximum volume level. However, don’t expect it to have a full sound and bass.

The screen of the POVA 2 is bigger than its predecessor’s at 6.9 inches with 1080p resolution and a 180Hz touch-sampling rate. There’s no mention of glass protection, but I appreciate that a plastic screen protector is already installed out of the box. The display is sharp and vibrant, which makes it great for watching videos, viewing photos, playing games, or simply browsing your social media feeds. However, the brightness level struggles a little outdoors.
