This seems more promising than most mediocre sensor pretend upgrades we've gotten for years.

    Why presenter is wearing a hat?

        GSMArena should delete the comments below posted by ID: p%S, 3h% and gm%. Obviously the same person is behind all of these and he/she is just posting this kind of crap to screw with other people.

        Time to get rid of those proxy anonymous trolls.

It's not Google or Huawei level of good but closer to them than the rest. Samsung has never cared about the intermediate digital zoom quality, neither have Sony or many others including Apple.

                      It is the best seller of 2021 among all brands.
                      The #2 is 12 Pro Max, the #3 is 12 Pro.

                      Do you think Apple really care the iphone is inferior to many other phones?
                      As long Apple manages to sell more than 140.000.000 of devices that cost more than $800, Apple will keep doing the minimum efforts.

                        You can check reddit or support pages of OEMs.
                        It is more common on flagships than midrange, despite lower volume of units sold.
                        You see people say they needed repair less than 1 month of use.

                        Oled has many downsides. Way more than LCD.
                        Still people say it is best tech just because samsung is main supplier for mobile.

It's really up to you if you are OK with inferior quality compared to convinience and that's about it. Ten years down the road all those HDR instagram like images of your kids will age really bad.

                                Stop spreading misinformation, I dunno why you anonymous ppl always come in to attack Sony, but that is a lie. Both the Xperia 5 III and Xperia 1 III had a variable one. It's pathetic when you have to lie about something to make a point.

                                  BobMop, 19 Aug 2021The example of Fuji's X-Trans doesn't really work... moreIt is known that Lightroom + X-trans raw files produce artifacts.
                                  The smooth setting of Iridient X Transformer works better, but it's in my opinion still worse than Bayer + low pass filter regarding artifacts and the workflow is extremely cumbersome.
                                  And Fujifilm's own jpgs suffer from X-trans artifacts, too, for example see the word "Nature" from "By a Law of Nature" at dpreview.com/reviews/image-comparison/fullscreen?attr18=daylight&attr13_0=fujifilm_xs10&attr13_1=google_pixel3&attr13_2=canon_eosm50_studio&attr13_3=panasonic_dmclx100&attr15_0=jpeg&attr15_1=jpeg&attr15_2=jpeg&attr15_3=jpeg&attr16_0=160&attr16_1=55&attr16_2=100&attr16_3=100&attr126_0=2&attr126_1=2&normalization=full&widget=1&x=-0.08824571546838234&y=0.34266084453738654
                                  Make sure that you copy/paste the entire link (you might need to switch to gsmarena's desktop version in order to see the full link) and make sure there is no space character in the link.
                                  Even the Pixel 3 and Panasonic Lx100 Mark I (also Canon Sl1) outperform the 26 megapixel Fuji X-S10 regarding true resolution in this area.
                                  I wouldn't buy a Fujifilm X-trans camera because one of the main reasons of using a large and expensive camera should be fewer artifacts than smartphone cameras. But that's not necessarily the case with Fujifilm cameras.
