Both phones in this review have Android OS (operating system), but Huawei nova 5T has an older 10 version and OnePlus 7 has Android 11. Huawei nova 5T's body is just a bit thinner and a little lighter than the OnePlus 7, even when both were released with only a few months difference.

Huawei nova 5T features a display that is just as good as the OnePlus 7 one, because although the Huawei nova 5T has a quite smaller screen, and they both have an equal 1080 x 2340px resolution, it also counts with a bit more pixels per display inch.
Huawei nova 5T features as much memory capacity to store more apps and games as OnePlus 7, both have exactly the same internal memory. The Huawei nova 5T and OnePlus 7 feature very similar battery performance, although the Huawei nova 5T also has a 3750mAh battery size instead of 3700mAh. The OnePlus 7 has a slightly better camera than Huawei nova 5T, and although they both have the same sensor size, a same resolution camera in the back and the same 3840x2160 video quality, the OnePlus 7 also has a bigger diafragm aperture to take better images and video in low-light situations and faster video frame rates.
The Huawei nova 5T is more expensive than the OnePlus 7, but you can get a better phone for that few more dollars.
