Iirc, the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra also has a similar 50MP 1/1.2" main camera. Could it be the same exact sensor Honor use for the Magic5 Pro?

If anything what we have seen is that software is the most important thing when it comes to smartphone cameras. One inch sensors have been disappointing tbh, hasn't lived up to expectations in general

          Anonymous, 27 Feb 2023Honor calls Ultimate the most advanced device. I know that but Ultra is shorter in term of number of letters than ultimate.

                Anonymous, 27 Feb 2023Honor calls Ultimate the most advanced device. He was most likely ironic. Prob meant that this looks like a Huawei Mate 50 Pro, especially in the orange color which they just directly copied from Huawei

                      A Huawei with 5g and Google play.
                      Technology just for China? = this should never be shown, but I guess like apple sell any new iPhone & Samsung
                      in Europe without 5g mmwave antenna and other futures,anyone can do it also.

                        "Honor claims it has the first Wi-Fi and Bluetooth standalone antenna architecture in the industry, which should boost Wi-Fi 6 performance by up to 200% and reduces latency by up to 30%"

                        At whom they're laughing? It's not even WiFi 6E let alone 7!

                        what a bold claim WOW 🤦🏻‍♂️

                                The design is so-so. I prefer Huawei's implementation of the center-camera design. However, the specs for the price are incredible; Honor didn't cut a single corner and has served below Samsung and Apple's 1400 dollar price tag, as well as bundled 512GBs of storage at that price. We really need Honor to expand now, because this is a phone that can match Samsung in brute specs.

                                  if you mean like a real optical zoom module on a good 1" camera sensor, going from 16 to 120mm, i too dream of that.. but we'll never get it. remember galaxy s4 zoom?

                                    And they call Samsung an expensive company. In Europe any chinese brand still doesn't won a status as being a flagship, no matter how good their smartphones are. And for that price, I doubt that they will sell well
