On the front you get a 13 MP camera with an f/2.2 aperture.
In our initial testing with the Desire 10 Pro, we found that the rear camera performs well enough in natural lighting conditions with good focus and bokeh effect in macro shots. Selfie camera also performs quite good with wide angle capture.

Conclusion
The phone packs a decent hardware and packs a very good camera combo. HTC also has fairly good after sales support. The overall set of specifications is good but not the best in this price segment. A better and more powerful processor would have been really good to see as Helio P10 is more of a mid range SoC. Although anyone looking for a phone with a good camera combo and brand support can consider this device.
