EMUI 11 vs EMUI 10.1: Here are the changes made to Camera app and features
Nowadays, the camera is one of the priority features of smartphones for everyone. On the flip side, the camera quality is also very important. Peoples capture moments of time and freeze them for later enjoyment and to refresh their memories.
Memories bring them back and people connect us to their past, they remind us of people, places, feelings, and stories. Huawei is known for its smartphone camera capabilities and the remarkable advancement it has made in the past.
Huawei’s camera app provides you various features that you may hard to find in any other smartphone manufacturer and offers different kinds of camera modes to suit your needs.
With the latest edition of EMUI, Huawei is rolling out new changes that will enhance the way you interact with the camera operations and increases the overall user experience.
Below you can check the changes that you may find in the camera app after upgrading to EMUI 11.
To take High-pixel photos in EMUI 11:
Before installing the update, there were a RAW switch and a high-pixel option available in the viewfinder when in Pro mode. The different options allow the users to take the different types of images that include:
- High-pixel RAW images
- Regular RAW images
- High-pixel JPG images
- Regular JPG images
After installing the update, the RAW switch and high-pixel option are merged together and named as JPG switch. The options are also renamed to different types of image are:
- RAW results in high-pixel RAW images
- JPG-L results in high-pixel JPG images
- JPG results in regular JPG images
Changes in video recording viewfinder:
After updating to EMUI 11, the exposure icon and focus frame will remain on the viewfinder if you touch the focus icon before or during the video recording. It helps you to view and adjust the exposure as well as focus in real-time while recording a video. This will not affect your videos, so don’t worry about that.
Huawei has released the January 2023 software update for the Huawei Nova Y90 and Y70 smartphones in the global market, and this firmware clearly improves these phones’ security aspects for a better user experience.
Both Huawei Nova Y90 and Y70 runs EMUI 12 out of the box but it would be interesting if the company could have sent EMUI 13 instead of the security patch. Speaking of which, no one knows, when Huawei will rollout EMUI 13 for global users for the time being.
Coming back to the rollout, January 2023 security update for Huawei Nova Y90 and Nova Y70 comes with EMUI version 12.0.1.177 and EMUI 12.0.1.202. This update is suggested to install on all of the devices sold marketed outside of China and will appear in batches.
We suggest the corresponding users look into the settings > then open System & updates, followed by a Software update, and then tap on CHECK FOR UPDATES. You can download the latest firmware also from the My Huawei app.
You should know that the update won’t erase your personal data but it is suggested for you back up any important data before updating the device. On the other hand, the package will be deleted automatically once the installation succeeds.
