Honor rolls out 'Face Unlock' feature to 'View 10'

New Delhi: Chinese technology giant Huawei's brand Honor on Thursday announced the roll-out of a software update that will bring 'Face Unlock' feature to its "View 10" smartphones.

The Over-The-Air update will reach all "View 10" devices by January 24, the company said in a statement.

To enable the feature, you need to register your face by accessing face-recognition feature in phone settings menu.

The Rs 29,999 Honor View 10 detects the positioning between a user and the device and adjusts the direction accordingly.

The Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology not only unlocks the device when sensors recognise your face but also turn off the screen when it senses that the users are no longer reading.

It also detects users' position and adjusts the direction accordingly.

The update will also enable closed-eye face-unlock prevention and intelligent screen-on.

Honor View 10 has octa-core Kirin 970 chipset, 6GB RAM, 128GB on-board memory and EMUI 8.0.
