    It is impossible to fit on the phones.

    Medium format sensor is near 20x larger than type 1.0 ... diagonal is 55mm, while diagonal of type 1.0 is 16mm.

        Battery is average at best but photo color science is best. Everyone always takes pics with vivo. Thought they have iPhones. No comments on sharpenes though

Some even don't use the entire sensor area because it'd need gigantic lens, and not that tiny bit of plastic on top of sensor we have today. Although some may try to use the entire area, you'd need to do your own research to know for sure.

I remember being super excited to finally afford one and even more excited to be able to test them first and boy was I shocked at how badly they sucked.

              I hope this one does well though, Gen 8 and fixing their past mistake would make a great combo.

                    Flagship phones produces better JPG results straight out of camera because they have superior 3 ghz processor that post-process the photos after you take a shot. Digital cameras have better lenses and sensor but their cpu is inferior. You have to transfer your RAW files to your computer and post-process using Photoshop or Photolab just to maximize results.

Phones are just superior because they use AI.

                          With amount of binning pixels going up, I don't see it coming back.
                          Though sensor size is an advantage, I see corner softness and distortion bigger issue for now, I hope they concentrate on that more.

                            Look how bizarre is the bump of 12s Ultra, almost as thick as the rest of the phone.
                            Larger sensors like FF and Medium Format sometimes have functions disabled on cameras because of heat.
                            They would melt phones.

                            Larger sensors produce more heat.

                              But this is made for industry and security cameras.

                              Cant be used on phones because amount of power used /heat generated.

                                All this technology is Garbage, we need Quantum image sensor that Samsung promised 15 years ago.

                                  Well, now we know what Huawei probably did for their P50 Pro and Mate 50 Pro telephoto cameras.

                                  In any case, I'm excited about the main sensor, especially with the expectations the Xiaomi 12S Ultra sets for the IMX989.

                                      As I shoot a lot, this is on top of my list. Was just waiting for good enough tele lens, 3.5x hi res is about as good as poor 10x, which is still better than poor 5x.
                                      Hi res + raw is my fav and this brand made it real. No reason why not to buy, but with camera centric competition like 12SUltra and maybe some others, it won't be easy, price matters now even more.
