If this has 1" diagonal, why is not public the actually size? I still know how to find a length in a triangle.

I'm definitely keen to look into both the 12.5MP and 50MP samples. Since the individual pixel size is so large, the full resolution mode could turn out to be more useful than that on other devices.
It's also nice to see a 30fps photo capture with face/eye AF on a huge sensor, finally.

This is looks like a really good phone with some proper innovation.
Why not wait till the reviews?

Also note that the Honor Magic 4 Ultimate should still capture slightly more light per time than the 12S Ultra main camera.

The ugliest phone design ever. A camera bump with another bump, great. No back cover can fix this and look still good.

Looks really amazing. Hope they eventually bring one out to the rest of the world. If it were possible, even a tad smaller.

Note that this sensor is larger than 1" type sensors. A 3:2 1" type sensor uses an active sensor area of 115mm². A 4:3 1" type sensor uses an area of approximately 120mm². This sensor uses an area of approximately 129mm² = 50.3*1.6² mm².
It also has dual pixel autofocus allegedly.

I don't think he article states the aperture of the main lens, from the samples, it's either f1.9 of f1.95
The Vivo x80 pro has a smaller 1.1.3 sensor but a brighter f1.57 aperture.
If 2.7 is the crop factor, 1.95 * 2.7 is 5.265, but the crop factor might be different as the sensor is 4:3
For the x8 pro, 1.57*3.85 is 6.04
So there should still be more light and a shallower depth of field as they both have a 23mm equivalent lens.
However say they had the same equivalence, the larger sensor with smaller aperture should still have an advantage as it should be less noisy.

Well folks what can we learn from all of this?
Huawei was light years ahead of everyone in camera hardware
Now that they have been suppressed every other OEM is still just playing catch up after so many years without Huawei
Periscope has slowed down .. we barely are now trying out more RGB variations like RGBW etc etc
Xiaomi is now following the Leica branding all things Huawei helped pioneer. Innovation has taken a serious hit
