Both the Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro come with the all new AI focused Kirin 970 processor and a dedicated neural-network processing unit (NPU). This processor and its AI capabilities really come to life when you start looking at the camera of the Mate 10. You can get real-time scene detection to automatically pick the best setting when taking photos. In addition to this, AI is also able to enhance digital zoom and motion detection. This is quite an improvement from what we got on the Huawei Mate 9 last year.

Still on the camera, both models come with a Leica Dual Camera setup at the back. There is the 12MP unit that takes color photos and the 20MP unit that takes monochrome (black and white shots). This ensures you get very sharp photos especially in low light environments.
