Huawei has officially confirmed the launch date for its highly anticipated Pura 80 series. The flagship smartphone lineup will debut on June 11 at 2:30 PM (Beijing Time), as announced by the company through a promotional poster shared on its Weibo account earlier today.
The announcement brings an end to weeks of speculation following a Huawei executive’s hint at a June release last month. The company invites fans to tune in for the “All-Scenario New Product Launch Conference,” where it will not only unveil the Pura 80 series but also showcase other new smart devices.
The promotional teaser highlights Huawei’s focus on photography, displaying a massive dual-lens camera setup encased in a gold-accented circular camera module. Based on the visual clues, the lenses appear to be dual-periscope telephoto sensors, a likely feature of the Pura 80 Pro+ or Ultra model. This suggests Huawei is continuing its tradition of pushing boundaries in mobile imaging technology.
In an accidental reveal earlier this month, He Gang, CEO of Huawei Consumer Business Group, was spotted with a Pura 80 model in public. The image, which circulated online, showed the device’s back design and prominent camera bump, hinting at a bold new look.
While Huawei has not yet disclosed the full specifications of the new lineup, it did confirm that the Pura 80 series will run on the stable version of HarmonyOS 5.0, the latest iteration of its in-house operating system. The full range of features and performance capabilities will be detailed during the official event.
So far, Huawei has kept most of the technical specifications under wraps, increasing excitement and speculation among fans and tech enthusiasts. The upcoming flagship is expected to represent a leap forward in smartphone photography and software experience.
