Huawei Pura X clamshell foldable arrives with a revolutionary design idea

20 March 2025
It's a clamshell with a hinge on the side.

Sort by:

Might it available here in Slovakia and will buy.
Who need google services anyway if Harmony OS have all shiny things too.

    > Interestingly, the user interface is AOSP HarmonyOS 5.0, rather than HarmonyOS Next.

    This is obviously wrong. First of all HarmonyOS 5.0 is HarmonyOS Next which uses the new micro kernel and ark engine.
    Second of all the hands on videos clearly show the usage of HarmonyOS "Next" aka 5.0

    Please correct it in the article. It is wrong.

    Pura X comes without any Android Runtime at all. Android Apps don't run on it as it is based upon Open Harmony.

              when will they finally stop putting holes in displays of phones, that already have a display next to main camera? do ppl feel attached to holes in their content now?

                  It was just a basic phone back then, I will never understand what's so "revolutionary" about that. 🤷‍♀️

                              It is only possible to operate a phone with one hand upto 75-76mm width. This onle is ridiculously wide. It may be fancy secondary device like a portable tablet but, not a primary daily driver at all. It is also so small to be a tablet.
