Display – Cinema-Quality Visuals

The 6.67-inch LTPO OLED screen offers smooth visuals with a 1 to 120 Hz refresh range. P3 wide colour support ensures lifelike shades, while Kunlun Glass adds top-tier durability. The display excels in sunlight and is one of the most colour-accurate in its class.

Performance – Flagship Power Without 5G

Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 (4G version) handles multitasking, gaming, and media with ease. Paired with up to 12 GB RAM, the P60 series runs smoothly even under heavy load. Lack of 5G may be a drawback, but 4G performance remains strong in South Africa.

Photography – A True Standout

Huawei’s XMAGE system delivers pro-grade imaging:

  • The 48 MP main sensor uses a physical variable aperture for better light handling.
  • Pro and Art models excel at zoom with periscope lenses and up to 100× digital zoom.
  • The P60 Pro has topped DxOMark rankings, praised for low-light and mid-zoom clarity.

Battery and Charging – Built for Busy Days

All-day battery life is standard across the series, and the fast charging setup is excellent:

  • 88 W wired = 50% charge in 10 mins
  • 50 W wireless = top-ups on the go
  • P60 Art’s 5,100 mAh battery is ideal for power users.

Software – Feature-Rich with Google Workarounds

EMUI and HarmonyOS are fluid and stable, with long-term update promises. While Google services are not preinstalled, apps like GBox allow access to most Google tools. Huawei’s AppGallery and Petal Search also fill many gaps.
