Late last year, a report suggested that Huawei was working on a successor to the Pura X. Now, fresh details about the upcoming Pura X2 have surfaced.
According to a tipster on Weibo, the Huawei Pura X2 is set to feature an even wider inner display than its predecessor. While the original Pura X adopted a flip-style foldable design, it did not follow the conventional form factor of a typical clamshell foldable.

The Pura X2 is expected to retain a design similar to the original model, but with noticeably larger displays both inside and out. It is tipped to feature a 7.5-inch inner foldable screen.
On the outside, the original Pura X placed the cover display and camera module on the same side. The Pura X2 is said to rethink this layout by introducing a larger cover screen on one half, while shifting the camera setup to the other side of the device.

According to the tipster, the upcoming device will feature a quad-camera setup, a redesigned hinge, and multiple variants powered by the Kirin 9020, 9030, and 9030 Pro chipsets. The Pura X2 is also expected to offer configurations with up to 20GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. On the software side, it will reportedly run HarmonyOS 6.1 and include an AI assistant.
The phone is said to launch in blue, black, green, orange, purple, and white color options. The tipster initially claimed that the Pura X2 would feature a 200MP primary rear camera, but later edited the post to remove that detail.
Huawei unveiled the Pura X in March last year, so the Pura X2 is likely to make its debut in China around the same time this year.
