What CompareTab says about Apple iPhone SE vs Huawei Nova 9

Huawei Nova 9 offers more RAM, storage, battery capacity and a smoother display than iPhone SE, with 8 GB of RAM versus 2 GB, 128 GB of storage versus 16 GB, a 4300 mAh battery versus 1624 mAh, and a 120 Hz display instead of 60 Hz. It also adds a higher-resolution rear camera (50 MP versus 12 MP), a higher-resolution front camera (32 MP versus 1.2 MP), an ultrawide rear camera, and 66W charging. Apple iPhone SE, however, is around $180 cheaper and lighter at 113 g versus 175 g. The choice comes down to Nova 9’s extra RAM, storage, faster charging, battery capacity, and smoother display versus iPhone SE’s lower price and lighter build.
