Xiaomi has a penchant of being the first with new camera hardware. It was among the first to launch a 48MP phone (the Redmi Note 7 Pro) followed by a 64MP smartphones (the Redmi Note 8 Pro) and even a 108MP smartphone (Mi CC9 Pro). Now, a leak claims the Chinese smartphone giant will also be the first to launch a 144MP smartphone.
High-res camera sensors have now been there for a while and if you recall a conversation we had with Qualcomm’s Judd Heape, they are only going to get larger with manufacturers trying to cram as many pixels into it as they can. The 108MP camera is already here in India courtesy the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra. Now it’s time for a 144MP camera.
According to a leakster, Xiaomi is working on a 144MP camera smartphone, likely to be named Mi 10S Pro or the Mi CC10 Pro. No other detail about the smartphone or the camera sensor is presently out there.
The megapixel race kicked in once again with the onslaught of 48MP smartphones in 2019. The same year also saw an onslaught of 64MP smartphones and now 2020 gave us a 108MP smartphone. The good thing is, with the rise in pixel count, we are seeing some incremental improvement in imaging. But brands are also relying heavily on the pixel count to sell their products. Not all high-res camera sensor deliver good photos. Some are tuned better and some need further optimisations. Having the sensor alone is not enough.
