The wide-screen phone trend is expanding beyond foldables
HUAWEI's new Pura X View brings a wide 16:9.5 display aspect ratio to traditional glass-slab smartphones.
HUAWEI has introduced the Pura X View, a non-foldable phone with a wide 16:9.5 aspect ratio display. The phone measures 6.39 inches diagonally and is just 6.68mm thick, despite housing a massive 7,000mAh battery. This launch is in line with the growing trend of wider-screen phones in the market, following the success of foldable devices like the Pura X and Pura X Max.
Back in the day, Android phones came in various shapes and sizes, but a tall display of 19.5:9 or 20:9 became the standard for most devices. However, foldable phones expanded the market's experimentation, and the latest Galaxy Z Fold 8 by Samsung has encouraged other Android brands to follow suit. But not everyone is sold on foldables, and HUAWEI is catering to those consumers with the Pura X View - a wide-screen glass slab smartphone.
