  "account": "The Huawei Pura 90 Plus has officially launched in China, introducing a new Kirin 9025 chip and a 5,700mAh battery. This mid-range device sits between the base model and the Pro variant in the Pura 90 series. While most members of the series have flat frames, the Pura 90 Plus features a slightly curved design, bringing it closer to the appearance of the previous year's Pura 80 range. The phone retains the gradient colour scheme and single-colour finishes of the more premium models in the line-up.\n\nThe Pura 90 Plus boasts a 6.8-inch LTPO OLED display with a resolution of 1,276 x 2,848 pixels, and a variable refresh rate that ranges from 1 to 120Hz. It also offers 1440Hz PWM dimming and a 300Hz touch sampling rate. The screen is protected by the brand's 2nd Gen Kunlun Glass, and the Pura 90 Plus retains IP68 and IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance.\n\nThe smartphone is powered by the new Kirin 9025 SoC, which offers a 20% performance improvement over the Kirin 9020. The chip is paired with 12GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage. A 5,700mAh battery powers the device, supporting 100W wired and 80W wireless charging, as well as reverse charging.\n\nRunning on HarmonyOS 7, the Pura 90 Plus comes with the brand's Celia voice assistant. On the imaging front, the device houses a 50MP main camera with a 1-inch sensor and a variable aperture ranging from f/1.4 to f/4.0, a 48MP telephoto lens with an f/2.1 aperture and up to 4x optical zoom, and a 40MP ultrawide lens with a 13mm equivalent focal length. A 13MP selfie camera is located in a punch-hole cutout. The Pura 90 Plus also includes satellite connectivity and a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.\n\nIn China, the Pura 90 Plus starts at CNY5,499 (~RM3,350) for the 256GB model, with the 512GB and 1TB variants priced at CNY5,999 (~RM3,655) and CNY6,999 (~RM4,264) respectively. It is currently unclear if the Pura 90 Plus will be made available in other global markets.",
