On the back of a smartphone from Huawei, the logo of the eminent manufacturer of photographic equipment Leica proudly flaunts — German engineers participated in the development of optics for the dual main camera of the phone.
Colour and light
Both camera modules are 12 MP and equipped with Summarit 27mm f/2.2 ASPH lenses. Only one sensor captures colour information, and the second captures light information, producing a black and white image. According to the manufacturer, software combination of data from two cameras allows you to get an output image with a wider dynamic range. But in fact, the difference between shots with an open and forcibly closed monochrome camera with a finger is practically not visible. But if you shoot immediately in black and white mode, the result will undoubtedly please you — the difference between the photo from the camera and the colour image forcibly converted to b / w is visible to the naked eye in favor of the first option.
Street photography
The focal length of the main camera is the best suited for shooting in the genre of street photography. The user is offered an abundance of automatic presets and manual settings with the ability to receive final result in uncompressed RAW format. Considering the capabilities of the camera, the absence of an optical image stabilization system on board, which is especially lacking during video recording, looks all the more surprising. And the now fashionable 4K resolution is not supported by a smartphone when shooting video.
Performance
The camera phone runs on Android 6.0 with the EMUI shell rolled over. With a Full HD screen resolution covered by a slightly rounded 2.5D glass, the proprietary Kirin 955 octa-core processor paired with 3GB of RAM delivers excellent gaming performance. Not to mention less demanding applications , which run without any lags and slowdowns. The high performance of the smartphone is confirmed by the results of synthetic tests: more than 90K points in AnTuTu and about 6K in Geekbench 3.
Battery life
To protect data from unauthorized access on the back of the smartphone case There is a fast fingerprint scanner. The battery life of the mobile gadget is exactly one day of not too active use — that's how much the charge of its 3000 mAh battery is enough.
- The phone has two cameras, one full RGB, the other monochrome. In a pair, the pictures are obtained by 50% contrast.
