What happens when you fully utilize the biggest sensor ever found in a smartphone to date? Xiaomi has done it, and the results suggest mobile photography could take a big stride forward because of it.
Xiaomi has announced its 12S Series which includes the Ultra that was co-engineered with Leica. That flagship features the world's largest smartphone sensor: a 50-megapixel 1-inch sensor behind a 23mm f/1.9 Leica lens.
Xiaomi has announced that it's upcoming 12S Ultra will use the full size of Sony's IMX989 1-inch sensor. The phone, which is also co-developed with Leica, will be announced on July 4.
Qualcomm has released video captured by the world's first smartphone capable of shooting 8K HDR footage. The 1.5-minute video above was shot up and down the west coast, on state beaches from California to Washington.
Xiaomi may not be a household name in North America, but the brand is a rising force around the world and now sits in third place behind Apple and Samsung. One reason it hit those heights is the way it continues to innovate on the camera side of things, which is what the 12 Pro is supposed to illustrate.
Xiaomi is back with another trio of high-end smartphones and has released the new 12 Series made up of the Xiaomi 12 Pro, Xiaomi 12, and Xiaomi 12X.
Xiaomi today has officially revealed the Xiaomi 12 lineup of flagship phones featuring a bevy of improved features like a reduced size and weight, an improved display, a bigger battery and faster charging, and a revamped camera system.
