Huawei’s Pura 80 Ultra edged out Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro in a head-to-head camera evaluation conducted by DXOMARK’s testing team. Apple’s flagship posted strong individual results across several capture categories, yet those numbers did not add up to enough points to claim the top spot against its Chinese rival in the final photography standings.
What separates the two flagships inside DXOMARK’s lab
DXOMARK ran the comparison.
Lab data showed the iPhone 18 Pro holding a 7.9 hardware score, a figure that stayed consistent through every round of testing that measured how internal components handled the processing demands of captured images. That steady mark gave Apple’s device a reliable technical foundation throughout the evaluation.
Despite that hardware consistency, Huawei’s Pura 80 Ultra still finished with a higher overall photography score once all testing categories were combined.
Where the iPhone 18 Pro lands on price and value
DXOMARK assigned the iPhone 18 Pro a 5.9 rating for value for money within its broader assessment. Market tracking tied that figure to a listed price of R$ 10,799, identified as the best available offer for buyers looking to purchase Apple’s device, a price point linked directly to the phone’s 7.9 hardware score.
