The HUAWEI Pura 80 Ultra acts as a highly active camera flagship released earlier in the premium cycle. It sets high benchmarks for mobile imaging by utilizing a physical, moving Retractable 1-inch Primary Camera sensor that mechanically shifts outward during operation to yield stunning, natural optical background bokeh and pro-grade light intake. It operates on the 7nm Kirin 9020 chip and uses a premium, textured faux-leather unibody backing frame.
Pros
- Revolutionary retractable mechanical 1-inch camera architecture maximizes real photo details.
- Ultra-tough 2nd-Gen Basalt-tempered Kunlun Glass drop protections.
- Ships with full 100W brick in box.
Cons
- Has a relatively conservative 5,170 mAh cell.
- Mechanical moving lens motor adds long-term vulnerability to hard dirt/impacts.
