Summary

  • CNY 5,999 ($893) buys Huawei’s new Pura X View, a China-only phone built around a 6.39-inch 16:9.5 OLED display aimed at reading, gaming and split-screen use without a foldable.
  • 6,500 nits peak brightness, a 120Hz panel and 2,232 x 1,320 resolution headline the screen, while the phone stays just 6.68mm thick and 201 grams.
  • A 7,000mAh silicon-anode battery powers the device with 66W wired and 50W wireless charging, alongside a Kirin 9030S chip, HarmonyOS 7, and up to 1TB of storage.
  • Camera hardware includes a 200MP main sensor, 50MP periscope telephoto, 8MP ultrawide and 50MP selfie camera, with stylus support and IP68/IP69 protection rounding out the package.
  • Huawei has not announced an international release, leaving the Pura X View as a China test of whether an unusually wide candybar design can gain traction beyond foldables.
