The wide-screen trend has officially reached non-foldables

---

Following a half-announcement last month, HUAWEI has finally taken the wraps off the HUAWEI Pura X View. While the company has spent plenty of energy pushing bleeding-edge form factors like the Mate XT 2 tri-folding phone, the Pura X View takes a delightfully weird turn in the traditional candybar phone space by introducing an unconventional, passport-like 16:9.5 wide-screen aspect ratio.

As announced by the company on Weibo, the HUAWEI Pura X View is being pitched to users who want a wider phone for reading, gaming, and split-screen productivity without committing to a wide-screen foldable. It features a 6.39-inch 120Hz OLED display (2,232 × 1,320 resolution) with thin symmetrical 1.05mm bezels, high-frequency 2,160Hz PWM dimming, and an eye-searing peak brightness of up to 6,500 nits. The display is protected by Kunlun Glass and also supports the HUAWEI M-Pen 3 Mini stylus.
