The Mate x Pro is Huawei's new flagship smartphone and the latest in its line of Leica-photographic camera equipped devices. The dual-cam setup combines a 12MP RGB sensor with a 20MP monochrome chip. Like on previous loftier-end Huaweis, the latter allows for a native black-and-white fashion, and Huawei claims that the combination of captured epitome information from both sensors leads to improved dynamic range and lower dissonance levels.

Both of the dual-cam lenses characteristic a fast F1.half-dozen aperture, and optical image stabilization is on board as well. The high-resolution setup allows for what Huawei calls a 2x lossless zoom, and PDAF combined with laser and depth sensors enables fast and precise autofocus. The Mate 10 Pro is capable of recording 4K video at xxx fps and the front camera captures images at an 8MP resolution.

Huawei isn't relying on hardware lonely though—AI and neural networking are applied to improve the quality of the simulated bokeh mode, and object recognition for automatic scene selection also relies on some AI magic. Finally, motion detection is being used to reduce motion mistiness in low light atmospheric condition.

Notice out how Huawei hardware and software play together and the Mate 10 Pro shapes up in our testing on the following pages.
