With a more than expected second quarter in terms of mobile launches, Huawei has decided to internationalize its latest premium range by bringing the Huawei Pura 70, Huawei Pura 70 Pro and Huawei Pura 70 Ultra to Europe. New models can now be reserved, They start at 999 dollars for the cheapest and they come with some freebies for those who hurry up to pre-sale.
It is not that Huawei has life too easy in the field of smartphones, the blow that the American government dealt it in terms of imports and use of software has caused a considerable setback to the Chinese brand in the field machines. Despite everything, Huawei has not abandoned any of the following areas: developed new processors and also its own operating system. And the latest, embodied by the Pura 70, crosses borders.

Just take a look at the features of the new phones to find out that they are the best in the smartphone scene. With the usual Huawei ballasts: They neither come with Google applications and services, nor 5G. And we also say goodbye to HarmonyOS: the operating system remains for watches and tablets internationally.
Both the Huawei Pura 70 Pro and Huawei Pura 70 Ultra come with Huawei’s most updated SoC, the Kirin 9010. This sees 5G cut out of China to provide maximum compatibility up to 4G networks. The Kirin 9010 is a small evolution of the controversial Kirin 9000S of the Huawei Mate 60 Pro, surely a processor manufactured in 7nma bit far in terms of efficiency and power compared to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 manufactured in 4nm.
The new Huawei Pura 70 features EMUI 14.2 based on Android 12, offers a 6.8-inch LTPO OLED display (6.6-inch on the Pura 70), has a high battery capacity with fast charging up to 100 W (with charger in the box) and includes a very high-level rear camera array; where the Huawei Pura 70 Ultra stands out: triple camera with 50 megapixel main sensor and variable aperture lens, a 40 megapixel wide angle and a telephoto lens with 50 megapixel periscopic lens which promises very high zoom and quality levels.
Huawei bundles the three main Pura 70 models into a single memory and storage combination for each version. Presale starts today, May 2, and distribution will take place on May 15 for the Pura 70 and 70 Pro; with May 22 for the top three, the Huawei Pura 70 Ultra. With the reservation, Huawei will give away Huawei FreeBuds Pro 3 headphones and a case to protect the phone.
