The wide-screen trend has officially reached non-foldables
HUAWEI’s Pura X View brings a passport-like 16:9.5 wide screen to a traditional glass slab phone form factor.
Huawei has unveiled the Pura X View, a smartphone with an unconventional wide 16:9.5 aspect ratio display on a compact 6.39-inch OLED screen. The device, measuring just 6.68mm thick, houses a massive 7,000mAh battery capable of 66W wired charging and 50W wireless charging. Powered by the Kirin 9030S processor and running HarmonyOS 7, the Pura X View offers a 200MP main camera, stylus support, and IP68/IP69 protection.
The phone is currently exclusive to China, with no global rollout announced yet by Huawei. This marks a departure from Huawei's focus on folding phones like the Mate XT 2, instead targeting users seeking a wider screen for reading, gaming, and multitasking without the need for a foldable device. The display boasts a 120Hz refresh rate, 2,232 × 1,320 pixel resolution, thin 1.05mm bezels, and an astonishing peak brightness of 6,500 nits, all under a protective Kunlun Glass cover.
