phone uses two camera modules, a color one with a 12 megapixel resolution and a
black and white one with a resolution of 20 megapixels, coupled to Leica Summarit-H
f/2.2 lenses. The image processor combines the images from both cameras resulting
in better overall image quality.
The new camera(s) also
offer better depth-of-field blur simulation ad a wide zoom range. New is a six-axis image stabilization and a 4
in 1 hybrid autofocus system, utilizing, contrast, phase, laser and depth. Unlike the Huawei P9, the two lenses are
placed vertically in the center of the phone instead next to each other on one
side.
Besides the new camera,
the phone has a 5.9-inch 1080p LCD screen and a 4,000mAh battery that can be
charged to 60% in just30 minutes. The
main processor features an octa-core Kirin 960 chipset, 4GB ram and an octa-core
Mali graphics processor. Video is
offered in 4K and there is an 8MP f/1.9 front camera. The phone uses Android 7.0 with 64GB storage,
and micro SD support.
Here is a list of the main
