Huawei’s new Pura 70 series offers four variants, with the Pura 70 Ultra standing out as the most impressive. We have covered the other 3 versions, Pura 70, 70 Pro and Pro +, in a different post here. Sharing similar specifications to the Pura 70 Pro+, it boasts a unique vegan leather back and an upgraded camera system, featuring a 1-inch main sensor with a retractable lens and variable aperture.
Huawei has introduced a retractable mechanism for the 50 MP main camera, which pops up when in use. This innovative rotating telescopic lens underwent rigorous testing, enduring 300,000 cycles of expansion and contraction. Additionally, the main shooter now sports a variable f/1.6 – 4.0 lens and a 22.5mm focal length, supported by the new XD Motion engine for capturing fast-moving objects.
The second module on the back houses a 50 MP telephoto lens with a 90 mm f/2.1 lens and OIS, offering 3.5x optical zoom. This telephoto camera also serves as a macro shooter, allowing close-ups as close as 5cm with its 35x super macro mode. Meanwhile, the ultrawide shooter is a 40 MP sensor and a 13mm equivalent focal length. The device includes a 13 MP front-facing camera.
