A closer look at the Huawei P10

Huawei mobile devices, especially those positioned in the upper segment, continue to improve every year.

The successor of the previous generation brings more innovations and exciting features, just like the Huawei P10.

The Huawei P10 offers a similar, if not the same, 1080p IPS-NEO LCD touchscreen display with the Huawei P9, however, the screen size is 0.1-inch smaller.

On the other note, the top protective glass is the fifth generation Corning Gorilla, making it stronger and more resistant to scratches.

On the inside, it uses the same HiSilicon Kirin 960 found on the Huawei Mate 9, which is composed of four Cortex-A73 CPU cores clocked at 2.4GHz each plus four Cortex-A53 cores clocked at 1.8GHz, paired with octa core ARM Mali-G71 graphics processing unit.

The volatile memory and built-in storage remain the same as the previous iteration at 4GB and 64GB respectively.

Just like before, the Chinese manufacturing giant puts a lot of efforts in the camera department, and it stays true with the P10. The main camera uses the same hardware as the Mate 9, that is dual 20MP + 12MP f/2.2 shooters with Leica optics, OIS and hybrid auto focus. What is more interesting is the front snapper, now also Leica-powered with f/1.9 aperture and 8MP resolution, it offers amazing self portraits even in less ideal conditions as it captures 2x more light. Moreover, there is a new Portrait Mode, that combines Beautification, Variable Aperture and other software trickery for awesome images.

 

Noteworthy features include the fingerprint scanner embedded on the Home key, 3200mAh battery with Super Charge technology, dual SIM with LTE connectivity, and runs on Android Nougat with the latest Emotion UI 5.1 on top.
