When a website says that a camera has 12 stops of dynamic range, then they mean the maximum technical dynamic range of a raw file at base Iso. This means that you can maximally see 12 stops of dynamic range of the scene at base Iso, if the camera exposes perfectly and if you edit the raw file.
It has nothing to do with how much dynamic range of the scene is actually visible(!) in the jpg (and without editing the jpg).

With the difference of hard pressing the button or tapping and sliding. As with keyboard, its faster on screen, possibly will come even to surfaces, its the future, definitely not hw buttons. Also, ore moving parts, more easily to break, it will increase the value of device.

Gotta be honest, some of the zoom samples I saw from Huawei devices were simply unreal. Looked way better than the stuff that the S20 Ultra managed. All that said, their video recording is probably the worst I have seen on a flagship device.

                    P40 Pro Premium will utterly and completely wipe the floor with all other phones in 2020. No one will come even close to beating Huawei.

                      Enough with these small shitty phone sensors.

They send their own blueprints too. Like if I was a chef and invented a recipe. I can send that recipe to someone else and have it made for me. I still made that recipe. The others followed my recipe properly but I am the one who invented it.

                                Here, Huawei doesn't seem to have made any recipe. They asked another chef to make one for them.

                                    It is smaller than the Toshiba sensor inside Nokia 808.

                                    1" has 116mm2.

                                    Look below at the Panasonic CM1. It is almost size of iphone 8.
                                    The whole module must be about 2" diameter.
                                    It is prime lens 28mm.

                                        It is ridiculous.

                                        FF has 12.5 DR at base ISO, iphone has 8.
                                        Still a FF wont give you blue sky, while keeping foreground from underexposure like phones do.

                                        Look at s20 ultra photos. Sky is navy blue in daylight.
