Our Verdict

Nova 12 Ultra vs iQOO 12 Pro

The vivo iQOO 12 Pro wins on camera and battery: 50MP f/1.7 wide + 64MP f/2.6 periscope 3x zoom + 50MP ultrawide vs Huawei’s 8MP telephoto and 60MP ultrawide, and 5100mAh vs 4600mAh (19:45h vs 15:20h active use). Buy the Huawei nova 12 Ultra if you need 100W wired charging (3–60% in 10 min) and 512GB storage without paying extra. Buy the vivo iQOO 12 Pro if you demand 144Hz LTPO AMOLED, 3000-nit peak brightness, 120W wired, and 50W wireless charging for premium display and speed. In UAE at AED 1699 vs AED 2200, Huawei is better because it offers double the storage at 512GB for 23% less price. In India at ₹64999 vs ₹64999 (assuming same price), vivo wins on value because 120W charging and 144Hz display justify the identical cost despite lower storage.
