Huawei Pura X Max: Everything We Know About The New Wide-Aspect Foldable

This foldable with an unconventional aspect ratio will launch in China on 20 April 2026.

Huawei is gearing up to reveal a new addition to its foldable family in China next week, and it sounds like quite the departure from the norm.

Dubbed the Pura X Max, this upcoming device is ditching the usual tall and narrow look for a more unconventional wide-aspect-ratio design. This foldable will make its official debut on 20 April 2026.

From what we can see, the design includes a triple-rear camera setup neatly tucked into a horizontal pill-shaped module. There are front-facing cameras appearing on both the external cover and the main internal display, so you will be sorted for selfies and video calls whether the phone is open or shut.

Under the hood, word is it might run on the Kirin 9030 series chipset, paired with a range of memory options starting at 12GB of RAM and going all the way up to 16GB. The foldable will have plenty of storage too, with choices spanning from 256GB right up to a massive 1TB.

The only catch is that we probably should not get our hopes up for a global release just yet. Much like its predecessor, the Pura X, this model seems destined to remain a China-exclusive. While it is always exciting to see Huawei pushing the boundaries of what a foldable can look like, it seems most of us will have to admire this one from afar for the time being.
