Xiaomi to Launch 64MP Camera Smartphone in Coming Months, Teases Camera Sample

Until now, 48MP camera phones have been in the hype in the market. However, that might soon change as there is a new contender in town. Until now, the details boasted by a 48MP camera smartphone were rarely seen in some other phones, and Xiaomi did a great job at introducing this sensor at a budget price range. Now in a move, Xiaomi might also become the first smartphone manufacturer to bring the 64MP smartphone to the customers. To recall, back in May, Samsung had introduced the ISOCELL Bright GW1 sensor which is capable of shooting 0.8-micron pixel size. Also, the sensor is capable of capturing 16MP images in low-light conditions by merging four pixels into one using Samsung’s Tetracell technology.

Samsung ISOCELL Bright GW1 Sensor

Now the real camera performance of the new phone in question cannot be gauged just yet. However, even then, Xiaomi has posted a new camera sample on Weibo which appears to have high-grade zoom support, and it might be because of the 64MP sensor. It is also worth noting that until now, Xiaomi has not announced that it will be using Samsung’s ISOCELL Bright GW1 only for its upcoming phone.

However, even with that being said, a report last month had claimed that the popular Chinese manufacturer is all set to use Samsung’s new sensor on its upcoming smartphone. The traits about the presence of a 64MP camera unit were also found on the MIUI camera application, which comes as part of most Xiaomi phones. The app was found to have references to “ultra-pixel” mode which might have to do something to do with the large megapixel count.
