Huawei, which has been in the mobile phone industry for many years, has made another big move! This time, they announced that the P series of mobile phones will be renamed Pura. This name change is not just as simple as changing the label, it represents Huawei's accumulation and breakthrough of technology over the past decade.
From the original Ascend P1 to today's Pura70, each generation carries Huawei's ambition and ingenuity. Let's take a look at Huawei's wonderful moments along the way.
Back in 2012, it was the first time that the Huawei P series saw the light of day. The first-generation P-series mobile phone, called Ascend P1, was only a dark horse in the domestic market at that time.
Ascend P1 is equipped with a Texas OMAP 4460 dual-core processor, 1G memory and an 8 million pixel camera, and has the world's thinnest 6.68mm body at that time, priced at 2999 yuan.
Every time Huawei upgrades its technology, it is a deep insight into the market. Entering 2023, Huawei has once again surprised us, and the P-series has officially changed its name to Pura.
In terms of camera configuration, Huawei uses Sony's strongest mobile phone CMOS photosensitive component IMX989 this time, which is a 1-inch sensor with a large bottom.
This sensor is already used in Xiaomi's Digital Series Ultra and OPPO's X-series flagship, and this time Huawei has also incorporated it into the Pura70, and it is clear that Huawei wants to take mobile phone imaging technology to the next level.
From the first-generation P1 in 2012 to today's Pura70, Huawei has continued to make breakthroughs and innovations in the past 13 years. In this process, Huawei's financial investment is also huge.
According to internal sources, Huawei has invested 1.11 trillion yuan in R&D in the past decade. This number is not just a symbol, it represents Huawei's persistence and investment in technological innovation.
Huawei's persistence is not only reflected in hardware upgrades and innovations, but also in the creation of the entire system ecosystem.
From relying on chips from external suppliers to self-developed Kirin series chips, Huawei has always strived to reduce its dependence on external suppliers and enhance its competitiveness. The hardships and challenges can only be glimpsed by the outside world.
In the global market, Huawei's P series mobile phones have won the favor of many consumers with their high-end configuration and competitive prices. Especially in terms of camera performance, Huawei phones are often the best in the industry.
On a global scale, it faces fierce competition and a complex political and economic environment. Especially in the U.S. market, Huawei's business has been severely affected due to various bans and restrictions.
For consumers, the name change of Huawei phones may bring some confusion, but more of an expectation. They wonder if the name change will lead to a major product refresh, or if Huawei will once again be at the forefront of technology with a new look and strategy.
