The addition of the 120° Super Wide Angle Camera helps users capture a broad and extensive view. With automatic distortion correction, the HONOR 9X offers an astounding 120° Field of View for users to share even more scenery in captivating landscape shots, while the 2MP depth-assist lens at f/2.4 enables depth of field recognition technology to create multi-dimensional photos.
