The distinctive telescopic lens featured in the Huawei Pura 70 Ultra stands out with its prominent red ring encircling its periphery. Concealed within is a precision mechanical extension mechanism that smoothly expands or contracts as needed, akin to a nimble eye, capturing the world's captivating moments for users.

Impressively, this mechanical structure has undergone rigorous testing, ensuring it can withstand at least 300,000 extension and retraction cycles. Moreover, the entire device boasts an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance, guaranteeing the stability and reliability of the lens function in various challenging environments. edebeaba-6a7e-47d6-8257-179e883f95e3.jpg Although the data already illustrates the excellent performance of the Pura 70 Ultra telescopic lens, some digital bloggers remain curious about its actual load-bearing capacity.

To satisfy this curiosity, one blogger conducted a fun little test to examine the lens's maximum load-bearing ability using real-world weights. During the test, the blogger first placed a Huawei Mate X2 (weighing approximately 295g) on the Pura 70 Ultra telescopic lens and gradually added weights until the lens could no longer support the load.

The experiment results revealed that the lens could stably support a total weight of 365g with the addition of a 70g weight. However, when the weight increased to 80g, reaching a total weight of 375g, the lens was unable to support it completely.

Based on this, the blogger concluded that the Huawei Pura 70 Ultra telescopic lens can withstand a pressure of approximately 365g. 98329799-95bd-474a-b135-b73d21abea67.jpg The rear camera array of the Pura 70 Ultra comprises three lenses, with the most notable being a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera boasting a 1-inch sensor. It features a variable aperture from F1.6 to F4.0 and advanced sensor-shift stabilization, enabling up to 200x zoom.

This design ingeniously employs pinhole imaging principles, allowing the periscope lens to automatically pop up for specific scenes and retract seamlessly afterward. This preserves the sleek, integrated aesthetic while leveraging the large sensor for enhanced image quality.

Additionally, the device includes a 40-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera with an F2.2 aperture and a 50-megapixel periscope macro telephoto camera with an F2.1 aperture, equipped with OIS optical stabilization. Together, they create a professional-grade imaging system covering a wide range of focal lengths to meet diverse shooting needs.
