That’s not all, Huawei also adds in an array of AI features to the Huawei Mate 80 Pro. Their AI Composition mode for real-time helps framing shots in real life by assessing subjects, lines, light and balance for ideal framing of your shot while an AI Remove helps to remove unwanted objects in an image. They also have an AI Best Expression that takes multiple shots and creates the best composition for group shots.
