16MP is so old school... My Note4 from 2014 did that...
For 2021 and 👆 I'd like to see 24MP output images as standard in the mobile industry...

Actually 64 MP sensor should have option for nona-bayer (binning to 7 MP). Any sensors above 45 MP should have the option for nona-bayer, as long as can binning to at least 5 MP

This sensor is HUGE! If someone thinks that this one will go to ultrawide or buget phones is a lunatic. This will be for main cameras (it has 8k) on high end devices. Maybe, in the end of 2021, on some high mid rangers, but over 600$.

Anonymous, 15 Oct 2020There is no "sensor can be used in wide and ultra wide... moreIt's about the complete package size. Pushing a tele lens on such a big sensor will make the entire module too big. So it's marketed with the intent that it will be used with "flatter" lens arrays, which usually means wide. Ultrawide has some of its own problems with distortion requiring more elements.
For selfies, you want to keep the notch/hole as small as possible.
All my points are invalid if the sensor is used inside a popup/flip module, as there is plenty of space to work with.

Actually there are even quite expensive DSLR lenses that suffer from soft edges wide open. DSLR lenses also suffer from more chromatic aberration than smartphone lenses.

2) lower MP count means faster readout, consequently less rolling shutter for videos
Even many professional lenses cannot resolve high MP, let alone crap plastic lenses used by phones. This is why many abuse shapness to make ppl believe it is all details (Huawei and Google)
