Huawei only launched the Pura 90 series a few months ago, and already there’s talk of another model joining the family. A familiar tipster has dropped some early details about a potential new variant that seems built around a pretty distinctive camera setup.
According to @DigitalChatStation, the phone is internally called Lucia and is being referred to as the Huawei Pura 90 Plus. It’s said to pack a 6.8″ 1.5K display and a triangular triple-camera module sitting up in the upper-left corner of the back. Expected colors are Obsidian Black, Snow White, Dawn Gold, and Sunset Purple.
The part that’s getting the most attention is the main camera: a 50MP 1-inch RYYB sensor with variable aperture. The tipster even called it the only setup like this expected this year. Huawei has used RYYB (red-yellow-yellow-blue) filters before in its flagships because they tend to pull in more light than the usual RGB ones.
When someone asked about a smaller “6.1 something” model, the tipster said that one’s more likely in the second half of next year. For context, the Pura 90 series itself launched in April 2026. The regular Pura 90 runs a Kirin 9010S, sticks with the triangular rear camera design, and has a 50MP main, 50MP 3.7x periscope telephoto, and 12.5MP ultrawide.
Looking at the current lineup, there are already a few tiers with different screens, chips, and camera combos. The standard model stands out with its bigger 6,500mAh battery and thinner build compared with the Pro and Pro Max. This leaked Plus version looks like it’s meant to sit alongside them rather than replace anything, mainly by bringing a larger main sensor to more of the range.
If this leak turns out to be real, the Pura 90 Plus would keep the series focused on camera hardware later in 2026 and continue Huawei’s push on imaging inside the Pura lineup.
