The HUAWEI Pura 80 series includes both the Pro and Ultra models, with the Ultra offering cinema-grade features such as a 16 EV dynamic range and the world’s first switchable dual telephoto cameras. The Pro holds its own, with an advanced 1-inch Ultra Lighting Sensor, physically adjustable aperture and Huawei’s RYYB technology for professional-grade shooting in everyday scenarios.

The sensor also supports Huawei’s Super HDR capabilities, which improve clarity in backlit conditions or when shooting between light and dark areas. While the top-tier Ultra model achieves an industry-leading 16 EV dynamic range, both outperform most flagship phones in HDR performance.

At the heart of the HUAWEI Pura 80 Pro is a game-changing 1-inch Ultra Lighting Camera, the largest main sensor ever seen on a non-Ultra phone. Combined with a 10-stop variable aperture (F1.6 to F4.0) and HUAWEI’s proprietary RYYB pixel arrangement, the HUAWEI Pura 80 Pro captures significantly more light than conventional smartphone cameras. The result: exceptional clarity, contrast and control in everything from low-light portraits to fast-moving urban scenes.

Precision hardware, pro-level results

The HUAWEI Pura 80 Pro’s imaging setup delivers hardware-driven results typically reserved for DSLR users. The camera on the HUAWEI Pura 80 Pro includes a 48MP Ultra Lighting Macro Telephoto Camera with a wide F2.1 aperture and optical image stabilisation, enabling crisp detail even at close range. A 40MP ultra-wide camera offers expansive perspective for landscape and architectural shots, while HUAWEI’s Ultra Chroma Camera, featured across the series, handles pixel-level colour calibration to maintain accurate, vivid tones across all lighting scenarios.

Unique to the HUAWEI Pura 80 Pro is a physically adjustable aperture on the main camera, enabling more creative control over light and depth of field, a feature rarely seen outside professional DSLRs. Huawei’s proprietary RYYB sensor structure brings in up to 40% more light than traditional RGGB sensors, while Super HDR technology ensures balanced exposure even in extreme lighting conditions.

Paired with AI scene recognition and Super Night Mode, the HUAWEI Pura 80 Pro delivers top-tier performance in environments where many phones fall short, from backlit subjects and mixed light settings to late-night streetscapes. Users looking for the highest-end mobile photography experience can explore the HUAWEI Pura 80 Ultra, which features Huawei’s new dual telephoto lens system and a dynamic range rated at 16 EV cinematic territory for a smartphone.

Display, durability, and day-to-day power

Built around a 6.8-inch HUAWEI X-True Display™, the HUAWEI Pura 80 Pro offers 1–120Hz LTPO adaptive refresh rate, 1440Hz high-frequency PWM dimming for eye comfort, and a 300Hz touch sampling rate for smooth interactions. With peak brightness of 3000 nits, the screen remains clear and legible even in strong sunlight.

It’s also a phone you can rely on. With IP68 and IP69 ratings, it’s water- and dust-resistant, able to withstand high-pressure sprays. The second-generation Kunlun Glass offers 20x stronger drop resistance than previous models, adding another layer of confidence.

Power is handled by a 5170 mAh battery, supported by 100W HUAWEI SuperCharge and 80W Wireless SuperCharge, meaning fast top-ups whether you’re plugged in or going cordless.

Intelligent inside and out

Running on EMUI 15, the HUAWEI Pura 80 Series introduces a suite of intelligent features designed to make the device feel responsive, personal and secure. AI Messaging protects your privacy by hiding content from unauthorised viewers. Smart Control Button with fingerprint recognition offers custom shortcuts. Gesture controls enable seamless hands-free navigation. The always-on display is now more interactive and expressive than ever.

Whether you’re a content creator, a professional on the move, or simply someone who expects more from their tech, the HUAWEI Pura 80 Series has been built to exceed expectations.

Whether you’re shifting between meetings, errands or quick getaways, the HUAWEI Mate X6 adapts with confidence and ease. This is everyday elegance with powerful purpose.

A design that matches your sense of style

The Mate X6 is more than just a phone. It is a carefully crafted object that reflects modern taste. The Orbit Ring camera housing is inspired by the stars, while each finish has its own distinctive look and feel. The Nebula Grey version features a shimmering vegan fibre made from aerospace-grade glass and materials found in bulletproof vests. It is both durable and smooth to the touch.

For a more classic look, the Black and Nebula Red editions are finished in ultra-thin soft leather. Elegant, timeless and tactile.

Even with its dual OLED screens, robust hinge and advanced camera system, the HUAWEI Mate X6 stays slim and easy to carry. Folded, it is just 9.85 millimetres thick. When opened, it becomes a spacious 7.93-inch display ready for creativity, content or calls.

Smart enough to handle everything you do

Your phone needs to keep up with your lifestyle. The HUAWEI Mate X6 does that with flair. From video calls to voice notes, shopping to socials, it manages your day with ease and elegance.

When opened, it gives you the space to multitask. You can run three apps simultaneously, drag and resize them as needed and move between tasks without losing your place. Need to book a trip? Chat with friends, browse flights and confirm your booking all on one screen. Planning a celebration? Curate the mood, check trends and send invites without missing a beat.

With EMUI 15, the experience is intuitive and fluid. There is even a playful side. The Emoji Crush lock screen responds with animated 3D emojis that change based on your actions, adding a moment of fun each time you unlock your device.

A camera and screen that capture life beautifully

Style is nothing without substance. The HUAWEI Mate X6 delivers on both. The Ultra Chroma Camera system includes 1.5 million spectral channels to boost colour accuracy by 120 percent. From subtle skin tones to bold sunsets, your photos look true to life and always flattering.

A telephoto macro lens allows for close-ups as near as five centimetres or distant shots using periscope zoom. You can go from landscapes to jewellery details without changing a thing. The 50 megapixel main camera gives you ten adjustable aperture settings for total creative control.

The 6.45-inch outer display and 7.93-inch inner display both offer OLED clarity with vibrant colours. Brightness peaks at 2500 nits for outdoor use and 1800 nits indoors. Adaptive refresh rates between 1 and 120 hertz help balance smooth performance with power efficiency.
