Kathmandu, Jan 13: On January 11, 2017 Huawei Mate9 successfully  broke the Guinness World Record for capturing  160 high definition selfies in three minutes at the Palace Downtown Dubai with the iconic Burj Khalifa as a back drop.

Different people clicked one picture in one second leaving behind the previous record breaker. This record breaking attempt took place at United Arab Emirates and the news was published just after a great success of collecting 8 awards in CES. As per Guinness world record guidelines, the image was a selfie taken by an individual using a smartphone or digital camera and was captured in exactly 180 seconds.

The latest flagship device, Huawei mate 9 was selected to achieve the target to break the world record with its 8-mega pixel front camera. Mate 9 is also equipped with user-friendly auto focus and smile capture. The world record was also possible because of Mate 9 camera feature of natural looking skin beautification algorithms developed by Huawei Aesthetics center in France.

Mate 9 uses an impressive second-generation dual lens camera with 12-megapixel RGB sensor and 20-megapixel monochrome sensor which makes the phone perfect for the best photography results. On this achievement, the representative from Huawei consumer group commented as “Breaking the Guinness World Record with Mate 9 cements our belief that this smartphone is truly unbeatable. We’ve set international standards before and the attainment achieved in UAE makes it even more special for the Region. We’re proud to hold the Guinness World Record title and view this as a testament to the standard-setting work what we do on daily basis.”

Huawei has been able to achieve this target by capturing additional 38 selfies than the previous record breaker. The previous record was held in October 2016 by Donnie Wahlberg and his fans on the block cruise in the Gulf of Mexico by capturing 122 selfies. This victory of Huawei has made it more difficult to the future attempters to break the world record by setting a tough target. The beginning of 2017 is really remarkable for Huawei because of its great achievement. Follow the hashtag #Mate9WorldRecord to know more about the Huawei record breaking events of 2017.
