Huawei Pura 90 Plus leaks with 1-inch RYYB camera, variable aperture

Huawei Pura 90 Plus camera specifications remain unconfirmed

A leak attributed to Chinese technology tipster Digital Chat Station on October 22 suggests that Huawei may be preparing a Pura 90 Plus smartphone with a 50-megapixel, 1-inch RYYB main camera and variable aperture. Huawei has not officially confirmed the phone, its specifications or its launch details, so the information remains preliminary.

The reported main camera is the most prominent feature in the leak. The sensor size and color-filter arrangement would distinguish the rumored phone from many conventional smartphones, although the final camera system and its performance have not been established.

The leaked display and model details

The same leak reportedly gives the Pura 90 Plus the internal codename “Lucia” and a 6.8-inch display with 1.5K resolution. It also describes a triangular rear-camera module and four possible color options: Obsidian Black, Snowfield White, Dawn Gold and Sunset Purple.

Those display, color and design details were not confirmed by Huawei. The report also does not provide a verified release date or official specifications for the model.

What RYYB and variable aperture would mean

RYYB, or Red, Yellow, Yellow, Blue, replaces some green pixels in a sensor pattern with yellow pixels. Huawei has used the technology in previous phones, and the reported larger sensor could be intended to improve light capture in difficult lighting conditions.

Variable aperture would allow the camera to adjust how much light enters the lens. A wider opening can aid low-light shooting, while a narrower opening can provide greater control in bright conditions and may affect depth of field. The Pura 90 Plus leak did not establish a reliable aperture range, and sensor size alone would not determine final image quality.

Expected position in the Pura lineup

The Pura 90 Plus is reportedly being considered as a model positioned between the standard Pura 90 and higher-end Pro versions. That positioning is based on leaked information rather than an official Huawei announcement; the exact lineup, pricing and availability remain unknown.
