A phone aimed at young people and attracting attention with its long battery lifeBuy Huawei Nova Y70 from Huawei Online StoreAfter a long time, Huawei is increasing its smartphone options in the middle segment, which are on sale in the Turkish market.Two new members to the Nova series at the regional launch event held in Istanbul towards the end of June;Nova Y70 and Y90 models participated.We have been experiencing the Nova Y70 for a while, which is offered for sale in our country with the recommended sale price of 4999 TL.In the Huawei Nova Y70 review article and video, there are our impressions and comments about this smartphone.Huawei Nova Y70, with its 6.75-inch corner-to-corner screen, enters the class of large-screen phones.Huawei has kept the screen bezel as narrow as possible in order not to enlarge the surface area of the phone too much.Thus, the thin-framed screen, which is described as Huawei FullView, is provided.There is a waterdrop notch at the top of the screen and the selfie camera here.At the top of the screen, at the junction with the edge bezel, there is a thin and long handset.Nova Y70 is available in three different color options: Pearl White, Midnight Black and Crystal Blue.The Crystal Blue color, which is the guest of our review, looks very attractive.Its glossy back surface offers pleasant play of color and light when the phone is held up to light or the sun.The design of the back, which curves slightly towards the edges, contributes to the ergonomics.On the other hand, despite its shiny surface, its light friction makes it easier to hold.Meanwhile, Huawei has added a transparent silicone case to the Nova Y70's box.Thanks to this, you can use or carry the Nova Y70 more safely without overshadowing its stylish appearance.On the front, the screen protector comes glued from the very beginning.In other words, Huawei saves Y70 owners from both protective film and case costs.On the right edge of the Nova Y70 is a thin and long volume key with sufficient keypress depth and hardness.Just below that is the power button, where the fingerprint reader is integrated.The responsiveness of the fingerprint reader is good, allowing you to quickly pass the screen lock.Meanwhile, those who want more practicality can also opt for the fingerprint reader.On the bottom edge are the USB-C port, speaker, microphone and 3.5mm headphone jack.On the left side, there is the nano SIM and microSD card tray located towards the top.On the top edge is the second microphone.There is an elliptical camera module on the back.Although the shape of this camera module is the same as in the Nova 9 and 9 SE models we reviewed before, the layout inside is very different.We see that three cameras are lined up vertically.The Flash, on the other hand, is located outside of this island.The horizontal placement of the Huawei logo suggests that the phone is intended to give a snapshot camera appearance when held horizontally during photo or video capture.In this respect, it continues to take the same approach as previous Huawei phones.The Nova Y70 has a screen with a length of 6.75 inches from corner to corner.It has a high screen-to-body ratio, thanks to the thin bezel that surrounds the screen.Based on the edge-to-edge visual experience, this display qualifies for Huawei FullView.The screen resolution is 1600 x 720 pixels, we can easily say that the sharpness and clarity are sufficient for a screen of this size.The IPS LCD screen has wide viewing angles.The screen brightness is at a sufficient level, it offers the brightness that will enable you to use the phone even under sunlight.Color vibrancy is also on point, we recommend you to choose the Vivid option, especially in Color mode and temperature in the display settings.If warmer colors are your preference, Normal mode will also work.By the way, there is also the possibility to manually adjust the color temperature of the screen.The Nova Y70's big screen is more than enough for surfing the web, using social media apps like Twitter, Instagram or Facebook, watching videos on apps like Netflix or YouTube.If you are a person who likes to watch videos, the resolution of the screen will be satisfactory for you as well as the size of the screen.Coming to the audio side, there is a single speaker on the bottom edge.The sound output of this speaker is above the smartphone average.Although it is a single speaker, the surround sound effect and fullness are also at a good level.When you want to watch or listen alone, without any external speakers, the Nova Y70's speaker will do the trick.We said that there is a 3.5mm headphone jack on the bottom edge of the phone.Even though there is no earphone out of the box, you can easily use any classic wired earphone you have at hand.On the other hand, the conditions are favorable for those who want wireless headphones, especially Huawei's FreeBuds series headphones will get along well with the Nova Y70.Another useful feature along with the presence of a 3.5mm headphone jack is FM Radio.Recently, we see that the radio experience on smartphones has been left to applications and radios listened to over the internet are preferred.However, the Huawei Nova Y70 has a handy FM Radio app for those who like classical radio.This application has a convenient and understandable interface.At the first startup, the FM radio band in your location is scanned and the found stations are added with their frequencies.Thus, you do not need to search for frequencies manually.You can also add the names of radio stations whose frequency you know.It should be noted that the frequency reception of the radio receiver is also good.If you want to listen to the radio without depleting your mobile internet quota, FM radio will come in handy.Of course, you need to plug in the 3.5mm headphone jack for the radio to work.You can also get the sound to the speaker when the headphones are plugged in.By the way, speaking of ready-made audio features and experience, let's talk about Party mode.Thanks to the party mode, it is possible to connect multiple Nova Y70s together and create a stereo sound effect at the same time.If more than one person in a group of friends has a Y70, a party effect can be created by linking them together.This feature is supported in the Huawei Music app.Huawei Nova Y70 has an octa-core processor.Huawei does not reveal much about the details of this processor.However, in the GeekBench 5 test, we see that there are eight CPU cores, four of which are high-performance at 2 GHz and four with a focus on power efficiency at 1.7 GHz.4 GB RAM and 128 GB internal memory are among the other elements of the Y70's hardware package.128GB will be enough for most users for their photos, videos or documents.By the way, it uses Huawei's EROFS file system.Thanks to this system, reading speed increases by 20 percent, applications and games open faster.This file system also saves 14 percent of the space occupied by system files.For the Nova Y70, 2 GB of system files are recovered.For more, you can use Huawei Drive.Or you can choose alternatives like OneDrive and so on.For those who prefer to expand with a physical storage unit, there is also a microSD card slot that supports memory cards with a capacity of up to 512GB.The hardware package of Huawei Nova Y70;It is more than enough for classic tasks such as surfing the Internet, watching videos, listening to music, using the camera.4GB of RAM provides speed in switching between apps, you can switch between the last three apps you opened without the need to reboot or install.A satisfying experience is also provided when scrolling in web pages or applications.In terms of gaming, mainstream games that don't require high-profile hardware allow you to play with satisfying fluidity and image quality.One of the strengths of the Huawei Nova Y70 is the high-capacity battery.The phone has a battery with a capacity of 6000 mAh, which is above the average of the smartphone.This battery reaches a working time of up to 3 days depending on usage.Even with heavy use of the phone, a considerable amount of battery will remain at the end of a day.Huawei's expertise in battery optimization enables the Nova Y70 to make the most of its high battery capacity.In Low Battery Mode, up to 12 hours of use with 5 percent charge is also among the powerful battery features of the Y70.When it comes to charging the high-capacity battery, the Nova Y70 performs well.This phone has 22.5W fast charging support.Thanks to the Huawei SuperCharge 22.5W charging adapter that comes out of the box, it is possible to charge faster than normal.The phone's battery goes from 0 to 100 percent in about an hour and a half.Only a 10-minute charge provides the opportunity to watch videos for 3 hours.Thanks to its 6000 mAh battery, you can use Nova Y70 like a powerbank.You can charge another device using a USB-C cable.In this way, you will be able to charge a wireless headset, smart watch or any other USB-C port smartphone.After connecting a device to the Nova Y70 with a cable, simply select reverse charging from the USB options.Huawei Nova Y70 comes with EMUI 12 installed.We've seen Huawei switch to HarmonyOS 2 on various products such as tablets, smartwatches, and more.EMUI 12 is offered on smartphones sold outside of China.Still, various UI elements that we've seen specifically on HarmonyOS 2 tablets are also present in EMUI 12.Nova Y70 provides users with a solid experience, thanks to various elements in the interface, real useful tools, and various applications that Huawei has made possible to use for a complete smartphone experience.We haven't seen Google's mobile services and Google Play Store on Huawei phones for the past few years.Instead there is Huawei Mobile Services and Huawei AppGallery.First of all, Huawei AppGallery works well and responds to needs, especially in Turkey.Thanks to Huawei Turkey working closely with developers, most popular applications, banking and finance applications, entertainment applications and more are distributed from Huawei AppGallery.Moreover, Huawei AppGallery allows to use various applications that are not distributed from the store, thanks to the method called Quick Applications.For example, there is no D-Smart Go application, but you can find this application in Huawei AppGallery, then add it to the home screen and use it like D-Smart Go's native mobile application.You can also use AppGallery to download popular apps like Instagram, Netflix, Spotify, Facebook.When you search for the name of the application you want to download in AppGallery's search engine, you will also see these applications in the results.When you click on the result to install any application, the APK file is downloaded from reliable installation sources such as APKPure, after the security scan, the application is ready.When you check for app updates from Huawei AppGallery, we see that not only apps distributed directly from AppGallery, but also apps installed through alternative means are shown here.That is, you can easily see and manage the updates of each application or game you have installed.Not having Google apps or Google Play Store installed doesn't mean you can't take advantage of them.You can access them thanks to the Gspace application, which you can download from Huawei AppGallery.AppGallery offers a free and ad-free version of Gspace.After completing the installation and opening the application, you see various applications available in the Google Play Store, especially Google applications such as YouTube, Google Maps and so on.When you click on one, the Google Play Store opens, after logging in with your Google account information, you can download and install the application you want, just like downloading an application from the Google Play Store.The applications you download with this method are opened via Gspace and provide the experience on an Android phone to a great extent.If you wish, you can add the applications you have installed on Gspace to the home screen of Nova Y70.One of the applications we installed on Gspace was YouTube.YouTube can be used easily with this method, but we were not successful in fitting a video completely to the screen or just playing the audio in the background.There is another alternative in Huawei AppGallery for a better YouTube experience.YouTube Vanced, an application that was used by Huawei phone owners before, is no longer serving at the request of Google.Instead, you can download the YT app on AppGallery.After installing YT, the installation steps that you need to go through manually to use the Vanced application are automatically passed, and then a complete YouTube experience is obtained.Operations such as playing the video by fitting it to the full screen or playing only the audio of the video in the background are also supported by the YT application.Huawei's smartphones and tablets have Petal Search as a search engine.Huawei is constantly working to ensure that Petal Search provides a good experience, and its R&D center in Turkey provides great support in this area.Petal Search, besides giving efficient results in your web searches, allows you to do many things only through this application with other features it offers.For example, you can use Petal Search to download applications such as Netflix, Spotify, Instagram.The Petal Search homepage, on the other hand, works like an assistant with news, useful information and many more.The Nearby tab shows restaurants, hotels, and other areas near your current location.Nearby will come in handy when you're planning a trip.The Shopping tab, on the other hand, will help you find the most affordable products and options when you have something to buy.We said that there are three cameras on the back of the Huawei Nova Y70.First of all, it has a 48-megapixel, artificial intelligence-assisted rear camera.Just below that is a 5-megapixel, 120-degree ultra-wide-angle camera and a 2-megapixel depth camera.On the front, there is an 8-megapixel selfie camera housed in a waterdrop notch.The Huawei Nova Y70 has the Camera app that we've seen on Huawei phones we've experienced before.This application has an easy to understand and useful interface.On one side of the screen are the shooting controls, shooting mode, zoom button.On the other side, there are various controls such as flash, settings, artificial intelligence button.Thanks to the artificial intelligence photography feature, the scene where you point the Nova Y70's camera is quickly detected and the appropriate scene mode is selected.Beach, building and similar modes are detected quickly, brightness and color saturation are increased, and results are especially suitable for sharing on social media.With the camera of the Huawei Nova Y70, you can take pleasing photos in different light conditions.You can take clear, well-detailed photos in bright sunlight or well-lit environments.Color saturation in these photos is also well adjusted.Even if the noise effect is slightly obvious in night shots, you will get likable results.The ultra-wide-angle lens is especially useful for group or landscape shots.In the photos taken with this camera, the color temperature is slightly higher than the main camera.Thanks to the presence of the depth camera, successful results are also obtained in portrait shots.On the video shooting side, the Huawei Nova Y70 offers 1080p video recording with both its front and rear cameras.It performs well in terms of image quality and sound recording.In terms of video stabilization, the Y70 is at a good level considering its segment.When you need it in daily life, the Nova Y70 will not let you down when it comes to video and photo shooting.Huawei Nova Y70 strikes a balance by bringing the features users expect from a smartphone at an affordable price.For those who want a big-screen phone, the 6.75-inch screen is more than enough, the same goes for 720p resolution.Its screen provides a good visual experience indoors and outdoors.With its stylish and ergonomic design, it manages to draw attention among other products in the same price segment.The hardware package it has is sufficient to fulfill the basic functions expected of a smartphone.Likewise, the triple rear camera with the 48-megapixel main camera and the 8-megapixel selfie camera provide sufficient conditions for you to take photos or videos that will satisfy you when you need it in daily life.One of the most curious points of those who are considering choosing the Huawei Nova Y70 will be the software experience.Under Huawei Mobile Services;backup, synchronization with other devices and similar services are offered.Huawei AppGallery, on the other hand, answers your needs in finding many popular local applications that you would like to install on your phone.AppGallery is getting better and better when it comes to globally popular apps and games.When you want to install applications such as Netflix, Spotify, Instagram, different and easy tools and methods are offered.You can even use the applications distributed over the Google Play Store in an easy way.If you have a Huawei-branded
