Huawei Pura 70 series phones arrived on the market yesterday and are seeing a high demand. Just like the Huawei Mate 60 series, all the models of the new phones also match “the level of 5G”. However, the Pro models such as the Pura 70 Pro, Pura 70 Pro+, and the Pura 70 Ultra have one networking feature as compared to the standard Pura 70. This is Huawei NearLink, a relatively new wireless technology, noted as “far ahead of Bluetooth”.

Huawei NearLink integrates the advantages of both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi

Last year, Huawei launched a new generation of NearLink technology, which integrates the advantages of both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi and offers significantly stronger and also more efficient connectivity. It works with a set of HarmonyOS powered devices.

Compared with traditional wireless connections, Huawei NearLink has the advantages of 60% lower power consumption, 6 times higher speed, 1/30 delay, and 10 times higher number of network connections.

Huawei’s official website shows that currently Huawei Mate 60 series, Huawei Pocket 2, Pura 70 Pro, Pura 70 Pro+, and Pura 70 Ultra support this NearLink function. So the standard Pura 70 does not have the connectivity advantage here.

While answering some questions, Huawei terminal customer service also confirmed that the Huawei Pura 70 standard version mobile phone does not support this advanced connectivity feature. “HUAWEI Pura 70 does not support Star Flash; HUAWEI Pura 70 Pro, Huawei Pura 70 Pro+, and HUAWEI Pura 70 Ultra support Star Flash,” (translated from Chinese).

The standard Huawei Pura 70 is said to be powered by the Kirin 9000S1, an underclocked version of the existing Kirin 9000S chipset. Other than that, the phone offers a 6.6-inch 2760 × 1256 pixel OLED screen, which supports a 1-120Hz LTPO adaptive refresh rate. The phone has a total of three rear cameras. These include a 50MP main camera, a 12MP periscope telephoto with 5x optical zoom (both have OIS), and a 13MP ultrawide. There is also a 13MP camera for selfies.
