HUAWEI’s new flagship phone Pura X Max has officially launched on the market recently, attracting a lot of attention with its brand-new appearance design and hardware configuration. Well-known repair team iFixit recently released the first disassembly video of this new phone on its YouTube channel. Although the exterior design of Pura
In terms of appearance and shooting configuration, Pura X Max adopts a passport-like body design, which when unfolded brings a natural visual experience like a mini tablet.
Before the disassembly, iFixit specifically praised the main lens with variable aperture technology, pointing out that this practical feature has rarely appeared on flagship models of other brands since the Samsung Galaxy S9 series, and HUAWEI has successfully integrated it into this foldable phone.
Entering the actual disassembly process, the testers found that one side of the back cover of the fuselage was relatively easy to open, but one side of the peripheral screen used an extremely strong adhesive, which required a lot of effort to separate smoothly. When the outer screen is removed, the core components are immediately exposed. The processor part that has attracted the most attention from the outside world is the larger Kirin 9030 Pro chip installed on the motherboard. It is reported that its performance is roughly equivalent to the 5nm process node. Compared with the previous 7nm chip, it has a significant improvement in computing power.
In terms of battery configuration, HUAWEI has equipped Pura However, this powerful battery pack is buried deep and firmly adhered to the inside of the fuselage. Although this design effectively saves internal space, it makes battery replacement and subsequent recycling processes quite difficult. In addition, the main lens module is also placed under the motherboard, requiring additional steps and time to disassemble.
As for the core screen and hinge parts of Zhemang mobile phones, the internal protection performance of Pura X Max brings surprises. When testers tried to peel off the inner screen, the panel remained intact despite the stress. The hinge structure not only has a good dust-proof sealing design, but the edges of the screen are also covered with pores and filled with flexible adhesive, which can effectively protect the movable components of the hinge and the fragile flexible inner screen.
Overall, HUAWEI Pura However, iFixit also admitted that due to the lack of proper hidden design of some screws and the extremely complicated battery replacement process, this phone will face a lot of challenges in daily repair and maintenance. As they said in the title of the video, this is an innovative device that is full of futuristic feeling until it needs repair.
