The Huawei Pura 70 128GB is Huawei Test's 2024 smartphone featuring a 6.6 inches, 105.5 cm2 (~90.1% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Kirin 9000S1 chipset. It comes with a 4900 mAh battery. Available in the UAE from AED 1,949.
The Huawei Pura 70 excels with its 50MP f/1.4-4.0 main sensor with OIS, delivering exceptional low-light detail, and its 12MP periscope telephoto offering true 5x optical zoom at 125mm — rare in this tier. The 4900mAh battery supports 66W wired and 50W wireless charging, enabling full recharge in under 40 minutes. Its 120Hz LTPO OLED display hits 2500 nits peak brightness, ideal for outdoor use. This phone targets professionals in hot climates who need reliable, fast-charging cameras for travel documentation and business use. Its weakness is Kirin 9000S1’s 5G performance lag under sustained load, causing throttling after 15 minutes of 4K recording. In UAE at AED 1949, it’s competitive because no other 5x optical zoom phone under AED 2000 offers this charging speed or screen brightness. In India at ₹N/A, it’s unrecommended due to absent Google services and no official sales channel, making software updates and app access unreliable.
