HUAWEI introduced the Pura 70 series in China recently. Now, three models from the series—Pura 70, Pura 70 Pro, and Pura 70 Ultra—are out globally, leaving Pura 70 Pro Plus exclusive to China.
HUAWEI’s Pura 70 Series flaunts modern design with a unique triangular camera module. The standard version is flat, while Pro models have curved edges.
All feature high refresh rate displays, from 6.6-inch to 6.8-inch quad-curved OLED. LTPO tech ensures dynamic refresh rates (1-120Hz) and 1440Hz PWM dimming, with 300Hz sampling for responsiveness, all shielded by Kunlun glass.
