Then, both the merits of both sides are incorporated, and the high -speed position by L1 and the accurate position by L5 are balanced.In the company's measurement, the results exceeded the Galaxy S9 of iPhone X and Samsung, and a demonstration video was shown in the presentation that the window of the car was painted with black paint and driving only with GPS.

The second is the camera function.As for the camera module, the MIX 2S announced in March was followed, but with further optimization, the score of 105 was recorded in Photo, a photographic image quality evaluation by a third -party evaluation organization.This is a score that exceeds the iPhone X and has a high reputation in Huawei's "P20".

Until now, the camera has been able to blur the background only with a dual camera model, but in MIUI 10, a deep learning can have a background blur effect.The ability to learn the usage of the app, and also add a function to speed up the start by preloading.In addition, the function of linking with smart home appliances has been enhanced.
