HTC 10 may have an OIS-enabled selfie camera

08 April, 2016
A tweet jumped the gun, announcing the "world's first OIS selfie camera"

Sort by:

very stupid. Why would anyone need ois on selfie camera? its ok on the main camera... HTC failed already, personally, i wouldnt buy a camera phone, real camera costs less. aswell htc is a second apple with their pricing. Its gonna bankrupt lel.

    Selfie camera : 20mp, OIS, 4K, hybrid phase detection and laser autofocus, panoramic mode, manual focus with attachable lenses, color spectrum and depth sensor. Rear camera - 5 ultrapixel (good luck with that). C'mon HTC! seriously?

                I have never been interested in "selfies." When I bought my current phone, I was looking at the rear camera performance, and I really didn't care about the front facing camera. The Lumia 830. A very tiny .9mp front facing camera, and an absolutely amazing 10mp rear facing camera. I'm happy.
                Now, I can see why this would be useful. I fully realize the benefits of having OIS and I could see this being helpful. However, I have to question how useful it is to have with such a small sensor, in such constricted space.

                  OIS means the shutter can stay open longer, meaning more light let in, meaning better shots in the dark. It's not just for people with Parkinson's or for videos

                    Well...for me putting OIS in front camera is better feature than having stupid heart rating sensor.
