Iphone 6s = 12MP 1.22 micron
Pixel size matters is just a myth. Some micro 4/3 cameras like Panasonic have pixel pitch of almost 6 micron.
Cant touch a A7r4 with less than 4 micron.
Samsung S21 : 12MP 1/1.67" and 64MP 1/1.72". Difference is too small in size. Photos of 64MP resized to 12 look much better than the main camera.

Except 888+, no other info is known.
This is why the assembling always start after devices are announced.
Otherwise, info like design and specs would be out already.

Anonymous, 21 Oct 2021Finally seeing 1-inch IMX800 sensor?Bigger doesn't mean the best. It's more important to have big photodiodes (pixels for the average Joe) than a big sensor with a lot of pixels.
Lenses are very important either. Stabilisation, software etc.

If it's another sausage-shaped device I won't buy it no matter how good the camera is. The width of the phone is what really determines its screen size.

All mirrorless, small lenses that do a lot more than any phone in terms of photography.

This is why 📷 do not use to extend range of lenses.
These 10x, 30x, 60x or 100x only look good on phone or low quality HD screen 💻.

I'm optimistic but I won't hold my breath.
Every year I'm waiting for a good all around Xperia with a reasonable price but , it's always a device that seems to be built for a very small and niche slice of the market and on top of that you're being asked to pay top dollars for it.
It's absolutely great they are keeping the microSD and 3.5" jack in their devices but then again , I can't really bring myself to like Sony smartphone since the rebranding,

Same person posted last week about sony phone with 48MP 1/1.42" + 50MP 1/1.56" + 48MP 1/2" + 48MP 1/1.19".
Next week phone (monday 11 p.m NYC time) , seems to be really single camera like Sharp.
Also 888+ confirmed by very reliable source. Despite zero advantage over 888, since making one core 0,16GHz higher makes no difference.

Next year we will see phones with continuous optical zoom, for example from 3x-5x or 3x-6x. What Samsung did back then was different. That phone(or camera) could do optical zoom from 1.1 up to 20x. We are far from achieving this on a phone for now, but from 3x to lets say 5x is possible, as I have seen on some older news this year.

808, 21 Oct 2021Hope it's a stock android device 🧐Nobody would buy sony phone without stamina, music app, battery care etc ..
Not even counting a phone probably over $1400 without creator mode, game enhancer, photo pro or cinema pro.
Stock android is too basic. Android 12 has stuff the skins have had for years.
That rotation (using front cam to detect face), even Z3 had this.

Mobilemaster, 21 Oct 2021This could be a Premium camera phone with more optical zoom... moreDoing something like Samsung K Zoom with larger sensor is impossible on a phone.
Some RX100 models (ZV-1 as well) as just 24-70mm, still only the lens is at least 20mm (when closed).
This new phone is not triple cam like 5iii
