Along with the standard P60, P60 Pro, Huawei also announced its P60 Art. There’s the The Huawei P60 Art smartphone brings a more avant-garde design to the series.
All three phones share the same core hardware – 6.67-inch LTPO OLED screen with FHD+ resolution (1220×2700 px) and a 1-120Hz refresh rate. The panels are protected by Kunlun glass and sport a built-in fingerprint scanner.
Cameras are the P60 series’ forte so let’s switch our focus for a bit. All three phones share the same 48MP main camera with an RYYB sensor and OIS. The sensor brings an f/1.4-f/4.0 ten-speed variable aperture with automatic scene-based switching.

This approach should capture the optimal amount of light, depending on the shooting environment. Huawei’s marketing materials are praising the new RYYB sensor’s light-capturing abilities as industry-leading. The main cam also supports up to 4K video recording.
Moving on to the ultrawide sensor, the P60 Art gets a 40MP sensor with the same aperture. As for the telephoto lens, the handset has 48MP telephoto modules with OIS and a 90mm equivalent lens capable of 3.5x optical and 100x digital zoom.
The telephoto lens on P60 Art has an f/2.1 aperture, which should fare much better in night shots than competing modules from other makers. Huawei says its new 48MP telephoto lens can capture the largest amount of light in the industry which is a pretty bold claim. The sensor also features three-axis stabilization.
The P60 series is equipped with Huawei’s XD Fusion Pro texture engine, which strives to reproduce object textures as close to the way they are perceived by the human eye.
The P60 Art is equipped with the Snapdragon 8+ 4G chipset – an LTE-only version of the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC from last year.
Another noteworthy feature on the P60 series is their ability to send and receive Beidou satellite messages. You can send and receive text messages when there’s no ground signal around but this feature will be limited to China.
Huawei P60 Art packs a slightly larger battery capacity at 5,100 mAh (compared to P60 and P30 Pro) and the cell is silicon-carbon, providing higher energy density compared to its lithium-ion-based counterparts.
Just like its siblings, the phone boots Harmony OS 3.1 out of the box and are IP68 rated.
