I would like to see a contest for the largest sensor.
I'm not expecting medium format 645 or FF35 in a phone, but this race to the smallest sensor is an insult to human inteligence.

Isn't OmniVision Technologies a affiliate daughter company of Samsung Electronics? I am pretty sure it's Samsungs own manufacturing and developing company in China. I thought Samsung brought more than 60% av OmniVision like 10 years ago. They even gave name to Samsungs Omnia Camera Series. In that case i don't Apple should mess with Samsung anymore and become friends. Because Samsungs owns a hell o alot of developing companies within mobile and microchip market. If Samsung cuts Apple of then Appla emight be in trouble.

1/4" sensor !!!
normal high end phone using 1/2.5" sensor and their output of image is passable only!
1/4" ? way too small to produce a nice print.
