For your photography, Huawei has put a triple camera setup at the rear and a single front camera which is housed in a hole-punch at the top-right corner of the screen.
The rear cameras consist of a 50 MP main camera, a 13 MP ultrawide camera, and an 8 MP telephoto shooter which features 3x optical zoom and 30x digital zoom and it has OIS. The selfie shooter is a 10 MP one.
The smartphone supports Huawei’s M-Pen 2s stylus so you can take down notes or draw stuff on your phone in its tablet mode. the device also runs on the new Harmony OS 2.
