[Huawei's ex-China handset business accelerates recovery: Pura 90 international version reportedly supports 5G, with no official response yet]

Published: Jul 8, 2026 08:57
On July 6, Huawei announced that it would hold a flagship product launch event under the theme "Now is Your Moment" in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on July 14, where it will introduce the Pura 90 series flagship smartphones to markets outside China. Ahead of the launch, a video quickly caught the attention of markets outside China. The video showed that the international version of the Huawei Pura 90 Pro Max supports 5G (as indicated in the status bar), and a speed test app showed download speeds once exceeding 1,100 Mbps. This means that Huawei's international flagship phones will support 5G again after many years. However, as of the time of writing, Huawei has not responded.

[SMM Shanghai Spot Copper] Looking ahead to tomorrow, the impact of Typhoon Bavi is expected to continue intensifying. Downstream copper processing enterprises are showing strong buying enthusiasm, with some stockpiling in advance over concerns of logistics disruptions, providing solid demand-side support. Supplier behavior: after low-priced spot cargoes were quickly absorbed during the day, available spot supply remains tight, and suppliers’ sentiment of holding back from selling is strong. Some suppliers are holding cargoes in anticipation of higher prices, waiting to sell at elevated levels, further pushing up spot premiums. Import profit margin is near breakeven, but short-term supply from outside China is limited. In summary, spot prices against the SHFE copper 2607 contract are expected to maintain a premium tomorrow, with the overall trend remaining strong. Going forward, attention should be paid to the actual typhoon path and the sustainability of downstream stockpiling.
