Huawei’s Pura 80 series is just days away from its China launch, and the company is turning up the heat with teasers that spotlight its new imaging system. With a legacy of pushing mobile photography boundaries, Huawei’s latest teasers hint at a periscope telephoto lens that could set a new standard.
Set to debut on June 11, the Pura 80 series is stealing the spotlight with two teaser videos shared on Huawei’s official Weibo account. The first traces the evolution of Huawei’s XMAGE imaging tech, from the P9 to the Mate series, culminating in a glimpse of the Pura 80’s camera prowess.
The second video zooms in on one model’s multi-focal length system, showcasing optical zoom at 2x (48mm) and 3.7x (89mm), alongside hybrid zoom reaching 10x (240mm) and an impressive 20x. This points to a beefed-up periscope telephoto camera, rumored to equip a 50MP 1/1.28-inch sensor. It promises crisp details for distant subjects and macro shots.
Rumors also suggest the Pura 80 Pro and Ultra will pack a 1-inch main sensor with a variable aperture and RYYB color filter for stellar low-light performance. It will likely be paired with a 50MP ultrawide lens. The speculated dual-periscope setup could offer improved zoom flexibility, reviving a design last seen in the P40 Pro+.
Running HarmonyOS 5, the series is expected to include four models—Standard, Pro, Pro+, and Ultra—with the Ultra potentially featuring a custom SmartSens 1-inch LOFIC CMOS sensor for enhanced dynamic range.
With its launch just around the corner, Huawei’s Pura 80 series (roundup) is poised to challenge rivals like the Honor Magic8 Pro with its bold camera innovations. Expect more details, including pricing and global availability, at next week’s event.
