Huawei Mate 30 : Enable Air Gestures

Huawei unveiled its new Huawei Mate 30 series of smartphones last week, introducing Huawei’s latest Kirin processor and a complex quad-lens camera system that’s contained in a new, circular enclosure.

The smartphones are powered by Huawei’s most powerful system on chip (SoC) – Kirin 990 and Kirin 990 (5G) processed with 7nm FinFET Plus EUV technology combined for faster processing and the new DaVinci Neural Processing.

One of the innovative features that the Huawei Mate 30 Pro brings is Air Gestures, which allow users to take screenshots and scroll without actually touching the device.
