After more than a year since its last flagship series, Huawei is poised to compete in the highly-valued segment with the local launch of the Huawei P50 Pro and its first vertical foldable phone, the P50 Pocket.
The Huawei P50 Pro offers top-of-the-line features including four rear cameras that offer better telephoto photos compared to its predecessor, a 6.6-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 300Hz touch sampling rate for smoother and more responsive navigation, and a 4360mAh battery with fast 66-watt charging and a whopping 50-watt wireless charging.
The HUAWEI P50 Pro’s Dual-Matrix Camera system delivers True to Life imagery with greater clarity and high dynamic supported by the all-new computational imaging solutions, HUAWEI XD Optics and XD Fusion Pro Image Engine. The camera has been engineered so all you have to do is line up your shot, whether it’s low-light, close-up, or zoom shots. Using the upgraded features enables the telephoto lens to capture photographs in detail, clarity, with better differentiation between far and close objects.

HUAWEI XD Optics enables the smartphone to rectify optical errors and reproduce fine details. On the other hand, the XD Fusion Pro Image Engine significantly improves detail, color, and dynamic range while the True-Chroma Image Engine delivers the highest possible color accuracy, creating images that reflect what is seen by the human eye.
Thanks to its XD Fusion Pro solution, the HUAWEI P50 Pro delivers true-to-life imagery with extreme clarity and adaptability, supporting an unprecedented 200x zoom range. This allows you to take clear photos of objects at an unprecedented distance, simply zoom in on your subject and shoot a detailed image that you can keep forever. No longer will the images be blurry and pixelated, but with the HUAWEI P50 Pro, your zoomed-in photos will be sharp and detailed. It also supports 4K video recording across the full focal range and an all-new AIS Pro image stabilization solution.
The Huawei P50 Pocket, on the other hand, is a stunning foldable device that offers a customizable second screen at the camera area when folded. Available in two colors, this device reveals a 6.9-inch OLED display when unfolded, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 88 chip, and a triple-rear camera setup at the back.
The HUAWEI P50 Pocket represents the fourth major breakthrough in hinge design in the development history of Huawei’s foldable phones. The HUAWEI P50 Pocket adopts a more precise and refined water drop-shaped design and features the All-New Multi-Dimensional Hinge Design that is unique to the industry. The All-New Multi-Dimensional Hinge Design has the advantages of large bending radius, small stress on the screen, and solves the issue of a large gap in the folding area. This design creates a thinner phone with less convex on the back cover. Most importantly, such a design creates a seamless fit when the phone is folded and no visible crease when unfolded.
