Huawei Pura 70 Ultra: aesthetic brilliance and revolutionary photography
Drawing inspiration from the shimmering lights of the River Seine at night, the Huawei Pura 70 Ultra features a vegan leather back panel adorned with an embossed starry pattern and subtle plaid texture, creating a sophisticated look. The XMAGE label and red-ringed camera lenses further enhance the elegant design. In contrast, the Huawei Pura 70 Pro offers a minimalist aesthetic in classic black and pure snow white, appealing to the style-conscious consumer. Meanwhile, the Pura 70 introduces a vibrant cherry rose pink alongside the traditional black and white options, catering to those who prefer a more youthful and trendy appearance.
Ranked by DXOMark as having the number-one smartphone camera, the Huawei Pura 70 Ultra sets new standards in mobile photography with its ground-breaking Ultra Lighting Pop-out Camera. This innovative feature includes a 1-inch sensor and a large, f1.6 aperture, offering exceptional light intake, among the highest in the smartphone industry.
The retractable camera design automatically extends during shooting, optimising the internal space for the large sensor and aperture while maintaining a sleek profile of just 8.4mm in thickness. This advancement represents a significant leap forward in mobile imaging technology, delivering professional-quality photos in a compact, stylish device.
Unmatched speed and durability
The Huawei Pura 70 Series breaks new ground with its Ultra Speed Snapshot feature, available on both the primary and telephoto cameras. This technology allows users to capture fast-moving subjects with remarkable clarity. Powered by the advanced Ultra Lighting imaging system and the pioneering Huawei XD Motion Engine, the Ultra Speed Snapshot can freeze action at speeds up to 300km/h. Whether you’re photographing a speeding car, a shuttlecock in midair or a playful pet at home, the Pura 70 Ultra ensures crystal-clear images every time.
Durability is another standout feature of the Huawei Pura 70 Series. The Pura 70 and Pura 70 Pro models come equipped with Super Durable Kunlun Glass, featuring a reinforced network skeleton that doubles its strength. The Pura 70 Ultra goes further with Crystal Armor Kunlun Glass, which combines enhanced scratch resistance with exceptional wear and drop protection. This advanced glass, made from an innovative amorphous diamond carbon material, offers outstanding transparency and hardness, increasing scratch resistance by 300%.
With these robust features, the Huawei Pura 70 Series ensures your device can withstand the rigours of daily use while maintaining its sleek appearance.
