Face masks cannot be used to unlock the phone, Huawei Executive Explains Doubts

Today, some netizens said on Weibo that facial recognition of some mobile phones was unavailable when wearing a mask.

In response, Li Xiaolong, vice president of Huawei ’s mobile phone product line, replied on Weibo: “On the Mate20 Pro, we have tried scenes with masks, but the feature points of the eyes and head are too few to guarantee security, and the belt was eventually abandoned. Face recognition in mask/scarf scenarios is unlocked. This is why we still keep fingerprints on phones that support 3D face unlock. “

However, some netizens said in the comments that their Mate 20 Pro and Mate30 Pro 5G can unlock face recognition when wearing a mask, and some netizens said that they did not recognize it.
