The model that brings more profits to them.

Do you think Apple uses I.B.I.S for Pro Max only is just because it has more space for it?

    563 is the main camera of Xperia 5.
    It is one of the most expensive 12MP 1/2.55" sensors, because it is very hard to make.
    Gen 5 or Gen6 process.

    I highly doubt the base 12GB/128GB is gonna cost less than $1420.

If Samsung can use a 3x optical zoom on their FE edition which is a cheaper phone, why on Earth to use 1.1 x on a more expensive phone? This doesn't make any sense!

        Yeah,,, I was hoping by now some 3 or 4x optical telephoto cameras would have made their way to standard flagship and near flagship models. I guess since Samsung and Hwawia?? are the only companies with these they are limiting the availability so they can command the $1400 prices for the phones.

            Why all the innovations in the camera deparment applied only to ultra model? Can't they improve regular S21 / S21+ with at least proper tele lens? I hope this 10 MPx 3x optical zoom will be applied to S21 and S21+ instead of 64 MPx fake zoom.
