HUAWEI-Pura-70-Ultra-DXOMark-smartphone-camera-ranking

The HUAWEI Pura 70 Ultra has made an impressive entrance into the camera phone market, securing the top position in DXOMark’s rankings.

Scoring 163 points, it edged out the former leader, the HONOR Magic6 Pro, by a mere five points. It’s worth noting that HONOR was once a subsidiary of HUAWEI, and both companies continue to excel post-separation.

DXOMark praised the Pura 70 Ultra for its superior camera capabilities, affirming Huawei’s expertise in delivering high-quality smartphone photography experience. The device achieved an outstanding score of 169 in photography and 148 in video. Its performance was particularly strong across various critical aspects, such as color accuracy, exposure, bokeh effects, and noise handling.
