zodiacfml, 11 Jun 2019more cameras means smaller, poor cameras like those in the Nokia.Lol poor camera? Have you use that once in a while?
First use than decide check #Nokia9PureView samples on twitter posted by real users. I watch it every day and wish i could get one.

    More interesting would be they got stacking to work in auto mode(also not just hdr).
    Why others can do 12-stack or stack 48mp shots but Sony is not able?
    Not even sure if full sized alpha cameras does that...

            1 - Normal wide cam
            2 - Telephoto cam
            3 - Ultrawide cam
            4 - Macro cam
            5 - Tof cam

                My wild guess: 2x RGB+1x Monochrome / B/W (With AUBE ISP Processing from XZ2 Premium) + Ultra Wide + Telephoto (ranging from 3-5x) + ToF sensor with all things from Xperia 1/2 (like Bionz X for Mobile, Cinema Pro, improved OSS, etc.)

                Hopefully, I can see it sooner than later.

In a world of instantaneous and high quality photos, Nokia 9 PureView is not a good sell for millennials and influencers alike.

And only that area has to be thicker. A one inch sensor would probably require that. But again only that area. And if they actually designed it well around it then it wouldn't matter. But the designs are so lazy and unimaginative lately I guess they would be stumped.

                                  Perhaps we'll see more telephoto focal lenghts, e.g. 3x and 10x

                                    Periscope is present.

                                      Nokia has very good cameras. I would say Sony and Nokia have the best daylight camera. But Nokia has best raw photos on mobile phone.

                                        "The penta camera-toting Nokia 9 PureView currently holds the record for the highest number of rear cameras on a smartphone. However, it seems it won't retain this crown long as Japanese tech giant Sony is reportedly working on an Xperia smartphone with six snappers at the back."
                                        Wrong gsmarena, the Nokia 9 has six(!) cameras when you count the Tof camera!!!
