Until now, having a 48MP camera sensor on a smartphone was considered to be one of the USPs of the device. Incorporating a 64MP sensor on handsets is the new trend, where OEM manufacturers are trying to best their competitors in the industry. For the past few weeks, we have seen Realme, Samsung and Redmi fight it out to hog the limelight of being the first company to introduce camera technology that revolves around the 64MP sensor at the centre. Out of the three, Xiaomi spin-off Redmi, has showcased its first 64MP smartphone imaging technology at an event in Beijing. This makes Xiaomi the first smartphone company to exhibit the upcoming technology.
The company also announced that a smartphone with Samsung’s GW1 64MP sensor will first appear on a Redmi smartphone in India in the fourth quarter of 2019. The company has already teased a phone with this tech in a teaser-poster last month. The teaser posted on Weibo showed a quad-camera setup on the phone. The caption along with the image also claimed that the phone will be able to capture an image up to 20MB in size, and the photo produced “will be far superior to that of an 8K TV”. However, the name of the device wasn't revealed in the teaser.
