Huawei unveils the P10 and P10 smartphones at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
At Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Huawei announced the P10 and P10 Plus, the latest devices in its flagship line of smartphones. Both smartphones will be available in green and blue in addition to six more colours: dazzling gold, graphite black, rose gold, white ceramic, mystic silver and prestige gold.
The P10 feature a 5.1-inch 1080p display and is powered by Kirin 960 processor. The phone comes with 4GB of RAM, 64GB of internal storage, microSD support, and a large 3,200mAh battery. Like its P9, the P10 has a Leica-branded dual-lens rear camera setup. However, this time around, you’ll notice a 20-megapixel monochrome sensor with a 12-megapixel main sensor.
Taking inspiration from Apple, Huawei has added the Portrait Model feature to create a bokeh effect that’s similar to what you would get from a professional DSLR. Both phones also feature a Leica front-facing camera for the first time.
