Huawei's Mate 80 Pro Max boasts the brightest smartphone screen, boasting an unprecedented peak brightness of 8,000 nits. This impressive display is a dual-layer OLED panel that promises exceptional brightness and contrast.
While rival smartphones like Realme's GT 8 Pro boast around 7,000 nits in terms of peak brightness, Huawei claims its Mate 80 series takes the cake with this staggering figure. However, it's worth noting that such figures only reflect specific conditions and may not accurately represent real-world usage.
Despite this caveat, having a display capable of reaching such heights is certainly an advantage for those who spend most of their time outdoors, particularly in sunnier climates. The Mate 80 Pro Max also features improved contrast, which further enhances its visual quality.
The phone's design has taken a different route compared to previous Huawei models, moving away from curved screens and opting for flat designs instead. This trend is now seen across the industry, with almost every major smartphone manufacturer adopting this design approach.
In terms of performance, the Mate 80 Pro Max is powered by Huawei's own Kirin chips, with up to 20GB of RAM available in the top model. While battery capacity hasn't been significantly increased compared to its domestic rivals, a 6,000mAh battery still offers respectable endurance for an average user.
The phone's camera capabilities remain a major selling point, boasting dual periscope lenses and support for an add-on telephoto lens kit. Overall, Huawei has made some solid strides in smartphone design and technology with the Mate 80 series, particularly with the Mate 80 Pro Max.
However, it remains to be seen whether these upgrades will translate into significant improvements over its rivals. For now, the phone is only available in China and may face stiff competition when international releases are announced.
