Did you ever face a cluttered camera setting while taking images? Though the company has offered the best camera phones to date. But these handsets often lacked a systematic and organized optical setting toolbox, to adjust image parameters.

Every time a user tries to change the camera setting, it leads them to a new page covering the main camera view. However, it seems that won’t be a problem anymore.

Thanks to EMUI 14.2, Huawei has enhanced the Camera Toolbox and made it a cluttered-free space for users. Whether you want impressive shots, a dynamic portrait, or a funny selfie, the camera setting won’t obstruct the view of the capturing area.

Huawei now added an arrow button below the camera shutter. Tapping the icon will open a quick menu to access significant camera tools. For instance: Aspect Ratio, Flash, Master AI, and more. You can check all the features below.
