The Chinese giant has announced in its homeland the new tri-foldable Mate XT 2 but the news doesn’t end there. Huawei Pura X View has been presented by the company as the first smartphone in the world with a wide screen: a format designed to offer more visual space when watching videos, reading books, gaming and consulting documents, paired with a 7,000 mAh battery. And no, it’s not a folding device!
The wide format has so far only been seen on folding devices such as Huawei Pura X Max, Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Xiaomi 18 Fold and the upcoming iPhone Ultra. In this case, the Asian giant has decided to exploit this particular form factor for a traditional smartphone and the result is a kind of a “little tablet” that remains relatively compact.
The heart of the experience, clearly, is the 6.39″ display with an aspect ratio of 16:9.5, wider than standard industry formats, with a resolution of 1.5K (2,232 x 1,320 pixels). The panel features minimal bezels of 1.05 mm on all sides, peak brightness of 6,500 nits and PWM at 2,160 Hz to reduce eye strain.
Huawei Pura X View measures only 6.68 mm in thickness and weighs 201 grams, and is available in four colors: Shadow Red, Linen Gray, Zero White and Phantom Black.
Under the hood you’ll find the Kirin 9030S chipset (already seen on the Huawei Pura 90 series), paired with a vapor chamber cooling system and a redesigned antenna to improve signal reception.
Pura X View features a 7,000 mAh battery based on silicon-carbon technology, with 66W wired fast charging and 50W wireless charging.
On the software side, the device runs <strong HarmonyOS 7, which introduces the new Huawei Share remote content sending feature: you can now send content to a contact even when they are not nearby, overcoming the limit of proximity-based sharing.
The camera setup includes a 200 MP RYYB main sensor in 1/1.28″ format, with an f/1.8 aperture and Red Maple technology for color rendering (the classic multispectral sensor typical of the manufacturer). To accompany them is a 50 MP periscope telephoto and an ultra-wide lens with a 112° field of view.
Among the software photography features are AI-based shooting suggestions and a dynamic 3D shots mode.
Huawei Pura X View is offered in three configurations, all with 12 GB of RAM: 256 GB at 5,999 yuan (about €770), 512 GB at 6,999 yuan (about €898) and 1 TB at 8,499 yuan (about €1,090). Pre-orders will start on September 9 in its homeland, and it is very likely the new model will remain an exclusive product for the Chinese market.
