TL;DR / At a Glance: What are the official specs of the Huawei Pura X Max? The Huawei Pura X Max official specs include a 7.7-inch internal LTPO OLED display, a 5.4-inch cover screen with 3,500 nits peak brightness, and the Kirin 9030 Pro chipset. It features a 5,300mAh battery with 66W fast charging, a 50MP variable aperture main camera, and runs on HarmonyOS 6.1. The device also supports the M-Pen 3 Mini stylus and is IP59 rated for water and dust resistance.
The “Wide” Reality: Specs Confirmed
Following our initial analysis of the “Passport” form factor, Huawei has officially pulled back the curtain on the Pura X Max during their April 2026 launch event in China. As we suspected, this isn’t just a bigger foldable—it’s an entirely new engineering philosophy centered on the 2:1 “Paper-Like” aspect ratio.
If you read our previous deep-dive on the Wide Revolution, you know why the 16:10 ratio matters for productivity. Now, we have the raw power numbers to back it up.
The Hardware Powerhouse
- Processor: Powered by the Kirin 9030 Pro (6nm). This chip is optimised for HarmonyOS 6.1, boasting a 30% performance jump over the Kirin 9020 and dedicated hardware acceleration for Real-Time Ray Tracing.
- Internal Display: 7.7-inch Foldable LTPO OLED (1-120Hz). It hits a peak brightness of 3,000 nits and features 1,440Hz PWM dimming to reduce eye strain during long “tablet-mode” sessions.
- External Display: 5.4-inch LTPO OLED. Interestingly, the cover screen is actually brighter than the inner one, peaking at 3,500 nits—making it the most legible cover screen in the 2026 flagship market.
- Durability: The outer screen is protected by Second-Gen Kunlun Glass, while the entire chassis carries an IP59 rating, meaning it can withstand high-pressure, high-temperature water jets.
The XMAGE Camera Array
Huawei is marketing this as the “pinnacle of foldable imaging.” Unlike other foldables that compromise on sensors to stay thin, the Pura X Max (only 5.2mm unfolded) packs:
- Main: 50MP RYYB sensor with a Physical Variable Aperture (f/1.4–f/4.0) and OIS.
- Telephoto: 50MP Periscope lens (f/2.2) with 3.5x Optical Zoom and OIS.
- Ultra-Wide: 12.5MP (f/2.2) with dedicated macro capabilities.

Official Pricing & “Buy Smart” Warning
Sales officially kick off in China on April 25, 2026. While there is no official Malaysia or Singapore launch date yet, the prices in China give us a clear baseline for importers:
- 12GB + 256GB: 10,999 Yuan (~RM6,378)
- 12GB + 512GB: 11,999 Yuan (~RM6,959)
- 16GB + 512GB (Collector’s Ed): 12,999 Yuan (~RM7,540)
- 16GB + 1TB (Collector’s Ed): 13,999 Yuan (~RM8,118)
Note: Huawei Consumer Chief Richard Yu warned during the keynote that memory chip constraints (the 2026 RAM crisis) could lead to price hikes later in the year. If you want this device, the first batch is likely the cheapest it will ever be.
Huawei Pura X Max Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the official screen size and resolution of the Pura X Max?
The Pura X Max features a 7.7-inch internal LTPO OLED display with a resolution of 2584 x 1828 pixels (411 PPI). The external cover screen is 5.4 inches with a 1264 x 1848 resolution.
Does it support a stylus?
Yes, it is fully compatible with the Huawei M-Pen 3 Mini stylus (sold separately), which supports 4,096 levels of pressure sensitivity and localized Air Gestures.
Q: What is the battery capacity and charging speed?
It is equipped with a 5,300mAh battery. It supports 66W wired fast charging, 50W wireless charging, and 7.5W reverse wireless charging for accessories.
Is the Huawei Pura X Max waterproof?
It carries an IP59 rating. This is a 2026 industrial standard that protects the device against high-pressure, high-temperature water jets and complete dust ingress, making it more resilient than the standard IP68 found on most flagships.
What chipset is powering the device?
The Pura X Max uses the Kirin 9030 Pro (6nm), a 9-core processor featuring Huawei’s proprietary Maleoon 935 GPU, which is optimised for real-time ray tracing in HarmonyOS 6.1.
Why is the Pura X Max running HarmonyOS and not EMUI?
Historically, Huawei used EMUI (based on the Android Open Source Project) for its global market and HarmonyOS for its domestic China market. However, as of late 2025 and early 2026, Huawei has transitioned its flagship “Pura” and “Mate” lines entirely to HarmonyOS 6.1 (HarmonyOS NEXT). This version has completely removed the Android Linux kernel in favour of Huawei’s own HongMeng Microkernel. Because the Pura X Max is a China-First release and part of Huawei’s 2026 goal of full OS independence, it does not use the EMUI skin.
