Both devices come with a 6.3-inch FHD+ IPS display. Although the “Halo” notch of the V11i looks more eye-catching than the thick notch that the Nova 3i has.

Vivo uses the reliable MediaTek Helio P60 processor on the V11i, while Huawei used their new Kirin 710 processor on the Nova 3i. Both are some of the best processors in the industry today and they are almost equal in terms of performance based on benchmarks.
