On many occasions, the different smartphones that are launched on the market seek to stand out for something. For its features, design, price, for some novelty that it incorporates and even for its cameras. Regarding these, we can see clear differences between some mobiles and others, so now we are going to count some of the rarest camera sensors that we have seen in a mobile.
There are several mobiles that stand out for their particular design and operation of their camera , so we will tell you about the most curious ones and how they differ from other mobiles in this regard. They will surprise you!
OPPO Find X, a very “pop-up” camera
The OPPO brand launched a new smartphone on the market that raised the front of the phone in its Find X model. Without a doubt, at the time and still is today, its striking module for its cameras stands out. A very “pop-up” model that attracted attention at the time.
It came to market with dual-lens cameras and 16 and 20 MP OS , capable of producing great depth-of-field effects, and a 25 MP front camera with 3D facial recognition.
With an innovative design that caught the attention of many, it also created some uncertainty about what was expected of us from this peculiar operation in the camera system, and its high price was perhaps also a downside. However, it has managed to become one of the phones with the most unusual camera seen on these devices.
Sony Xperia Pro-I, with its one-inch sensor
This Sony smartphone came with a 1.0-type sensor with high-speed performance to take photos and record videos with great quality. Its large sensor is supported by Sony’s Image Signal Processor to deliver this extraordinary performance. He has dared with a 1-inch CMOS and it has been a success.
It has stood out at the time for combining this image sensor with the glass lens and its signal processors to offer excellent image quality. Its sensor has been created on the RX100 VII sensor developed and customized exclusively for this mobile. As we can see, your module has the cameras aligned in a very interesting way.
Vivo x80 Pro, circular camera and ZEISS touch
This is a mobile that stands out for its design, and its camera could not be less. With a 50 MP main camera, a 48 MP wide angle, a 12 MP portrait camera and an 8 MP periscope camera, its own image processor and the touch ZEISS has a camera system that impresses. It has been quite a revelation at the time.
Its design is quite peculiar since, without ceasing to be a fine mobile, although it stands out, it manages to integrate the rear cameras in a perfectly combined circle . The module is very large and circular inside the square module that leaves the periscope outside.
Asus Zenfone 8 Flip, rotating camera and clean screen
This ASUS model has a high-resolution triple camera for front and rear photos. His camera is rotating. The screen is therefore free of distractions, because there is no hole or notch for the camera. It allows you to take the same high-quality photos both ways, with great photos at night, in low light conditions, and with ultra-wide selfies.
Its exclusive triple camera module has a 64 MP main camera , an ultra wide angle and a telephoto camera. The 3-lens system has a faster and more precise motor so it can unfold and function as a front camera. Its particular camera system is one of the main attractions of this mobile.
Samsung Galaxy A80, reversible camera that rotates
This model features a rotating camera module with a tooth mechanism. With this mechanism, the module slides up and rotates inside the frame.
For the brand it was quite a challenge, although they achieved it thanks to this mechanism that allows this movement to be made with a single motor. This is activated by using the selfie button. On the back of the Galaxy A80 we can see the camera module, without highlighting much, ready to work at any time.
Its reversible camera has dazzled many, especially in the case of a mid-range mobile (with a higher price). Its camera system includes one 4 MP and one 8 MP. Although its design and operation is not as neat as some would like, and some users were concerned about possible future problems, it was quite a challenge for the brand at the time. We must emphasize that there are people who practically do not remember it because it is not that it was a great success.
Nokia 9 Pureview, with 5 rear cameras
This is an example of what 5 rear cameras give in a mobile, and it has arrived in 2019 from Nokia. All of them 12 MP, with a 20 MP front. Placing the cameras on the back has not been complicated for the brand, although it may seem initially.
Four of them draw the corners of a hexagon with the flash in the upper right and the sixth camera discreetly fitted in the center. Its arrangement is curious, but it is as good as possible. Something that I really like is the fact that they are fully integrated into the back cover.
However, its success has not gone as far as the brand would like, and it is that more cameras do not ensure it. Your screenshots weren’t good enough as expected and your app was taking longer than expected.
