First Look: New Camera Design Stands Out

Huawei has confirmed a new triangular camera module on the back of the devices.

Key design highlights:

  • Rounded triangular camera layout
  • Flat edges with a premium finish
  • Gradient color options (except black and white variants)

This continues Huawei’s design evolution seen in older models like the Huawei P20 and Huawei P30, which introduced gradient finishes to a wider audience.

📸 200MP Periscope Camera Expected


While Huawei has not officially confirmed camera specs, multiple industry leaks suggest:

  • A 200MP periscope telephoto camera
  • New-generation imaging system
  • Focus on long-range zoom performance

Huawei has historically focused on camera innovation, with devices like the Huawei P30 Pro setting early standards for periscope zoom in smartphones.

Kirin 9030 Chip Likely

Reports indicate the Pura 90 Pro series may be powered by the Kirin 9030 or Kirin 9030 Pro processor.

If confirmed, this would continue Huawei’s push toward in-house chip development, reducing reliance on external suppliers.

The devices are also expected to run on HarmonyOS 6.1.

Why This Launch Matters

This launch comes at a time when Huawei is steadily rebuilding its smartphone business, especially in China.

Recent market data from Counterpoint Research and IDC shows Huawei maintaining strong domestic performance despite global challenges.

The Pura 90 series is expected to:

  • Strengthen Huawei’s premium lineup
  • Push further into camera innovation
  • Expand its HarmonyOS ecosyste

What’s Still Unknown

Several key details remain unconfirmed:

  • Official camera specifications
  • Battery and charging details

Huawei is expected to reveal full details at the April 20 launch event.

Bottom Line

Huawei has set April 20 for the launch of its Pura 90 Pro series, with a refreshed design already revealed and major camera upgrades expected.

More details will be confirmed at the official event.
