Huawei Pura 70 Ultra Review: Google is Back?

Huawei is the only brand that is never shy of trying new designs. It's still the best smartphone in terms of photography but the Kirin chip needs to be on par with other flagships out there. Overall 9.5/10

[@colombard140]

❤❤❤The Huawei Pura 70 ultra is a 5G phone. I have tested it and its connectivity speed is in fact better than all my other 5G phones. It is also a fully functional SATELLITE PHONE which can communicate with a satellite that is 32,000 miles above the earth's surface. The satellite technology of the Pura 70 ultra is light years ahead of the iPhone 15 max which can only send SOS sms via a satellite that is only 100 to 150 miles up. 😂

[@kgapholasegadimanebethuel3873]

I was surprised when he referred to the Chipset as 4g+ while we all know is 5g, yes is not 5 nm but is 7nm 5g Chip

[@MrJafar]

@@kgapholasegadimanebethuel3873 Unfortunately, only Chinese version is 5G.

[@chien.nguyen.]

@@kgapholasegadimanebethuel3873 In theory, it is called 4G+. In Vietnam, Viettel, a telecommunications group, also has the same technology as Huawei and developed it itself, and it is also 4G+. As far as I know, it is called 4G+ here. In terms of theoretical bandwidth, 4G is achieved but in reality it does not achieve that due to many factors. With 4G+ it almost achieves 5G speed but is not enough and reaches the exact theoretical 4G speed, one more factor is It supports wavebands from 4G broadcast stations that are upgraded to be close to 5G or upgraded to 5G standard. With Huawei, their 5G is defined as a complete device from the non-upgradable 5G standard transmitter to the chip. 5G embedded in the phone chip must meet different standards, its actual speed must also be 5 Gbp/s compared to the theoretical 10Gb/s, the minimum speed in the coverage area must be 400Mbp/s

[@baton1140]

Do you have the Global Version or Chinese Version ? I don't know why I see a lot of reviewers since the global version released say that it is 4G only..

This is the best iphone and Samsung killer phone, Huawei Pura 70 Ultra 😍😻

[@SwirX]

nah because of the us ban their processor is shot compared to them edit: I'm not saying that the phone is shit but if you're someone that needs the best performance for gaming it's good but not as the other flagships, other than that it's a great phone

[@justsada]

you can never justify paying so much for any phone ... ... kudos for the review.. for a very long time I haven't seen someone put such a detailed effort into the display of cameras in all conditions. as well as about the phone itself .. well done !!

[@breakingthewall2112]

If you got the money then no prob

I have the impression it is not really a phone. It looks like it is more of a camera with a bonus phone. Unless you really are into photography, it might be an overkill.

[@A_dhit_a_m_a]

​@@shiishinchiu6636Wikipedia: HarmonyOS was officially launched by Huawei and first used in Honor smart TVs in August 2019.[7][8] It was later used in Huawei wireless routers, IoT in 2020, followed by smartphones, tablets and smartwatches from June 2021.[9] The operating system was initially based on code from the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) and the Linux kernel; many Android apps can be sideloaded on HarmonyOS.[10] The next iteration of HarmonyOS known as HarmonyOS NEXT was announced on August 4, 2023. It replaces the OpenHarmony multi-kernel system with its own HarmonyOS microkernel at its core, removes all Android code and supports only apps in its native App format.[11][12] It is currently in beta testing and is expected to launch in the fourth quarter of 2024.[13]

Zero Google apps is a very good reason to get this device. Sony left the U.S. market last week because it's dominated by the Samsung and Apple duopoly. Quality phones with amazing hardware like Pura 70 don't come along everyday.

[@MrBhong2000]

[@yaboipookiepook]

​@@jevonsims900 Your assertion that a $1,500 phone without the Google Play store is a sound investment is perplexing. The absence of the Play store significantly diminishes the phone's value, rendering its impressive hardware largely irrelevant. Without the Play store's extensive app ecosystem, the phone is essentially a device with subpar software, severely limiting its overall appeal😂😂

Hi Nick, I like your videos. Lots of research and effort goes in. One way you could improve, is to focus on your voice. One sentence will be left on a high intonation, the following sentence will be left on a low intonation. It's ok to do this every now and then, but to the current extent it gets quite wearing on the ear. Almost like an unnatural conversational tone. If you work on this you might find more people stick with you to the end of your videos. I'm not trying to disrespect you, as a voice over coach I can't help but help! Keep up the good work.

I have a P60 Pro and tbh if it's your main device, due to the Google ban Huawei is a bit of a pain in the behind. It's for people who has extreme levels of patience or at least knows hacked websites or apps so that it works better. And one thing most people on KZbin say is "Google apps work without issue" which is false as sometimes you disconnect from certain apps due to Google, if you have games such as CODM you cannot make in app purchases, if you want to sync save data to your Google cloud it is 50/50 that it will work.
