Huawei Pura 90s Pro unveiled. and Huawei Pura 90s Pro Max. Both come with the Kirin 9030S chip, supporting 5G and eSIM for the first time in models sold outside China.
Huawei has launched its new flagship smartphones, the Pura 90s Pro and Pura 90s Pro Max, in international markets. The main highlight of these models is the 200MP telephoto camera with an RYYB sensor, alongside 5G and eSIM support—the first for Huawei devices sold outside China.
The Pura 90s Pro Max features a 200MP telephoto camera with a large 1/1.28-inch sensor, f/2.6 aperture, and fixed 4x optical zoom without the complex lens-switching mechanism found in the Pura 80 Ultra. Huawei has enhanced it with real-time RAW image processing, enabling video zoom up to 20x, CIPA 7.0 (7 stops) stabilization, and macro photography capabilities.
The main camera uses a 50MP RYYB sensor sized 1/1.28 inch, featuring LOFIC (Lateral Overflow Integration Capacitor) technology to broaden dynamic range, replacing the 1-inch sensor used in last year's Pura 80 Pro and Ultra models. The lens supports OIS stabilization and an adjustable aperture from f/1.4 to f/4.0 across 10 levels, complemented by a 40MP ultra-wide-angle camera (RYYB sensor, f/2.2 lens).
Meanwhile, the standard Huawei Pura 90s Pro also has a 4x telephoto zoom camera but with a 50MP sensor, f/2.1 lens, OIS stabilization, and a macro mode with a minimum focus distance of 5 cm. Its main camera shares the same 1/1.28-inch 50MP RYYB sensor as the Pro Max but lacks LOFIC technology. The ultra-wide camera is downgraded to 12.5MP (RYYB sensor, f/2.2 lens).
The Pura 90s Pro sports a 6.6-inch LTPO panel with a 1-120Hz refresh rate and 1,256 x 2,760 resolution, protected by second-generation Kunlun Glass. The Pura 90s Pro Max features a larger 6.9-inch LTPO panel, also with a 1-120Hz refresh rate but a higher 1,308 x 2,880 resolution, using the original Kunlun Glass. Both displays incorporate special optical layers to reduce glare by up to 70%, diamond-like carbon coating, and silicon nitride ceramic materials, which Huawei says increase scratch resistance by 16 times and drop resistance by 25 times.
Both models use the Kirin 9030S chip, a new processor from HiSilicon, Huawei's semiconductor subsidiary, building on the Kirin 9020 found in the Pura 80, although detailed technical specifications remain undisclosed.
A major update is the addition of 5G network support, a feature absent in previous Huawei smartphones sold globally, alongside supportfor eSIM.Other wireless connectivity includes dual-band Wi-Fi 7 (be), Bluetooth 6.0 (supporting LDAC and L2HC), and Huawei's proprietary NearLink E2.0, a short-range wireless standard intended as an alternative to Bluetooth.
Both models come with 12GB of RAM and storage options of 256GB or 512GB, running on the EMUI 16 operating system.
Both models feature a 6,000mAh battery for the Chinese and general global markets; however, models sold in the European Union have reduced capacity to comply with EU regulations. The Pura 90s Pro Max supports faster charging at 100W wired and 80W wireless, while the Pura 90s Pro supports 66W wired and 50W wireless charging.
The Huawei Pura 90s Pro Max is available in four colors: Orange Ocean, Blush Gold, Blaze Purple, and Graphite Black.
The Pura 90s Pro offers colors including Guava Soda green, Coconut White, Orange Soda, and Mulberry Black.
