Huawei could be preparing a camera upgrade for its upcoming Huawei Pura 90 Pro models. A new leak suggests the company is testing LOFIC technology for telephoto cameras, which could improve image quality in both bright and low-light conditions.

The information comes from tipster Smart Pikachu, who said two major Chinese smartphone brands are testing LOFIC for telephoto lenses. While no names were confirmed, the hints in the post pointed to Huawei’s Pura 90 lineup.

LOFIC, or lateral overflow integration capacitor, is a sensor design that helps the camera manage light more effectively. Instead of letting extra light overwhelm the sensor, it temporarily stores the excess and uses it in a controlled way. This helps keep bright parts of an image from losing detail.

When shooting in darker scenes, the sensor shifts its focus to capturing even very small amounts of light more efficiently. This helps produce clearer images with less grain, especially when zooming in with a telephoto lens.

If Huawei adds this to its telephoto camera, it could improve long-distance shots, especially in difficult lighting. Other expected details of the Pura 90 series include a 6.58-inch display on the standard model and a larger 6.87-inch flat display on higher-end versions. The base model may use the Kirin 9020 chip, while the Pro version could use the Kirin 9030. The Ultra model is expected to run on the Kirin 9030 Pro.

Huawei is likely to launch the Pura 90 series in the first half of the year, following its usual release timeline.
