Editorial report
Huawei Pura X 12 GB / 512 GB / China / VDE-AL00 technical sheet
The Huawei Pura X suits buyers looking for a foldable phone with a bright display and a versatile camera setup. Its main trade-off is thickness: at 15.1 mm, it is thicker than most phones of its time. The 6.3-inch display reaches 2,500 nits peak brightness, higher than most, while its 120 Hz refresh rate is typical for the period.
This version pairs 12 GB of RAM, more than most phones of its time, with an AnTuTu v10 result that also beats most. For photography, the main camera’s f/1.6 aperture and the telephoto camera’s 3.5x optical zoom are among the best of their time. The 4,720 mAh battery capacity, however, is among the lowest. Its 66 W fast charging is better than most, and 40 W wireless charging is among the best.
Connectivity is among the best: the phone supports 5G, Wi-Fi 7 and satellite connectivity. Overall, the Huawei Pura X earns a NeoScore of 7.9, better than most phones launched around the same time. It is a fit for buyers prioritizing a foldable design, display brightness and camera options, and willing to accept a thick body and lower battery capacity.
