Huawei Pura 70 Ultra: A New Benchmark in Imaging Excellence
On April 17, Quick Technology reported that according to the digital chat station, Huawei’s Pura 70 Ultra marks the brand’s full-scale return to imaging excellence, given that Huawei was the first to feature a periscope telephoto lens and a large sensor in its flagship phones back in the day.
This time, the Pura 70 Ultra boasts a 50-megapixel 1-inch large sensor as its primary camera, alongside a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto lens, and it supports super macro photography.
Unlike the 1-inch large sensors used by its competitors, the 1-inch sensor of the Huawei Pura 70 Ultra adopts a brand-new RYYB array, which is fundamentally different from the traditional RGGB array.
In simple terms, the principle of the RYYB array is to replace green with yellow. Yellow is a combination of green and red, with brightness being the sum of both. In theory, this can increase the amount of incident light by about 30% to 40%.
Furthermore, the Y component has a broader spectral response, covering more wavelengths, which enables it to capture more photons, significantly improving the signal-to-noise ratio in low-light conditions, making night photography more prominent.
With the support of the RYYB array and Huawei’s independently developed XMAGE imaging technology, the Huawei Pura 70 Ultra has become almost like a new generation of “night vision goggles.”
More importantly, the arrival of the Pura 70 Ultra signifies Huawei’s official entry into the 1-inch sensor club, launching a direct challenge to its competitors.
The device will be available for sale in the near future.
