      I think the line strip beside the camera that looked like "free transform - warp" from photoshop that make it feel wrong
      And the outer wavy curve beside camera, why not make it perfect circle?

          why did they ruin the design with those stupid wrinkles around the island, especially the black version looks more noticable
          man they had one job, just copy huaweis design and yet

            Nick Tegrataker, 12 Aug 2021Since ToF cameras do have a lens as well as a sensor behind... moreSo you can't take pictures with it?

              Every time I see a monochrome sensor: is there someone bold enough to bring IR mode back?

                Mate 40 RS Porsche Design is beast, this phone it isn't.

                  Now this is what I call beastly.

                  Very beastly, and I really do agree with the statement on the headline.
                  Its camera setup is insanely promising. 3 64MP sensors, and a 50MP main snapper, ZTE finally has a contender.

                  I'd love GSMArena to review this, and I want to see the performance of this device.

                  Reminds me a lot of the P40 Pro+ and the Mate 40 Pro RS Design.

                  Now imagine if this had GCam support, I guess it'll be even more impressive than the Mi 11 Ultra.
                  But this one is incredibly expensive, while the Ultra is $300 or $200 less.

                  This phone is insanely promising, and I love that.

                    AnonD-994853, 13 Aug 2021Why Huawei​ could not? Sony sensors aren't restricted ... moreNot sure but there are many reports saying that they are as Sony uses US tech in the design/production of these sensors (at least specially customized sensors seem to be banned). Not sure about sensors that are openly available to all companies

                      - Where is the misleading in that? Its advertised as 50mp at 23mm. 27mm are chose as x1 in pixel-binned 12.5mp mode because thats a more popular for casual/streets/travel FL. You can always get 23mm by toggling the zoom down to x0.8.

                      Another point is u can never know if the reviewer sits on the same position in every shot. That definitely affects the results.

                      'Where are the zero distortion lenses from Zeiss, Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fuji, Leica, Panasonic, Olympus, Sigma, Tamron, Meier and other?'
                      - Thats because those company doesnt provide it. As simple as that. Have u ever heard Laowa lens near to zero distortion at 12mm? Phones freeform lens most likely supplied by Largan Precision, a Taiwan company, where they brag about it all over the web. Do you think they will simply lying about that & dont get caught? 🤦

                      'After the canikon selfies and moon shot from database, you better take it with grain of salt what chinese say'
                      - All ads from marketing Company cheat, can just see by naked eyes. Its either been caught or not. The Huawei's moon shot? Its been debunked, a lot of testing has been done, and its the real deal. Huawei also already explain about it. Even professional photographer 'mathphotographer' in Youtube already test it. Go check him in youtube.

                            That's not a 'gorgeous' design by any stretch of the imagination! In fact, it looks weird.

                              it will be my phone probably. I am in Thailand, though. Hope it will be sold here.

Though I know technically you can capture images with a ToF camera, its intended purpose is to capture depth information

                                        Samsung = 13mm
                                        1+ = 14mm
                                        Sony = 16mm

                                        Check samples of the reviews. Ones from 1+ should be between samsung's and sony's. But are bit narrower than sony's. How is that even possible?
                                        Photos that should be equivalent to 14mm (35mm equiv) are sort of 16,xx mm instead.

                                        Where are the zero distortion lenses from Zeiss, Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fuji, Leica, Panasonic, Olympus, Sigma, Tamron, Meier and other?
                                        As far as I know Zeiss and Canon are from century XIX. But still could not do what a smaller company in China that makes plastic lenses for phones.
                                        Shame on both ... 🤦🏻‍♂️

                                        Take photo, cut a bit the edges and resize back to initial resolution.
                                        You are not going to see difference.
