AI 2.0 Camera
Honor 10 24MP+16MP dual-lens AI camera was developed and supported by the NPU processor in the AI chipset with built-in NPU, which means it recognizes 500+ scenarios in 22 categories in real-time. It can pinpoint the outlines of various surrounding objects, like the sky, plants, people or even a waterfall, and identify their locations instantly.
This feature is supported by the industry-first Semantic Image Segmentation technology, which allows Honor 10 to identify multiple objects in one single image. It is here where Honor 10 really stands out from the crowd. These industry-first Honor 10 features apply scene-specific parameters to each photo in real-time when taking a picture, making every photo you take a professional shot with just one click.
Not only is the rear camera supported by AI 2.0 technology, Honor 10’s 24MP front camera is your intelligent selfie companion. It supports 3D face recognition, optimizes facial details and detects over a hundred facial points to pixel-level accuracy.
Honor 10’s front camera also supports studio lighting effects with a range of lighting conditions. The advanced and precise facial recognition ensures an accurate wide aperture, and captures subtle features of everyone’s face, even in a ‘groufie’ shot.
Upgraded and Intimate Experience
Honor 10 is powered by an independently built-in NPU processor. The 4GB RAM and 128GB ROM storage gives sufficient space to stock all your exciting moments recorded in galleries, apps and files. Honor 10 also comes with Honor Super Charge 5V/4.5A with the 3,400 mAh (typical value) battery, which can recharge 50% of power within 25 minutes.
Honor 10 is based on the latest EMUI 8.1, which represents an overall upgrade in software function and capability, and particularly features the Easy Talk function which reduces background noise in a windy environment when you’re talking hands-free on the road, and it also increases the volume of whispering for quiet conversations.
