      It is funny. All these chinese companies treats you as a potentional next photographer, world famous one in the future. Big lenses, periscopes, huge sensors. In reality people doesn't care about quality while posting photos on social media. Simply marketing gimmick.

        veloce, 25 Oct 2024No, sensor is sensor. Module = sensor + lens. thumbsup.

              veloce, 25 Oct 2024No, sensor is sensor. Module = sensor + lens. 1/1,95" sensor is bigger than 1/2" sensor, not smaller

                    "The 3x telephoto solution will have a 33% smaller sensor than the predecessor, as it will be 1/1.95" big."
                    OnePlus 12 had a type 1/2" sensor for its telephoto module, so its size is pretty much identical to its predecessor's.

                    "The camera will have an f/2.6 aperture in front and be a circle rather than a rectangle, allowing for better light capture"
                    More like the background bokeh wouldn't look squarish because it uses circular lens elements. Pretty much all periscope camera modules aside from iPhone's 120mm equivalent Tetraprism one use D-cut lens elements that look like their top and bottom are bluntly cut off. This makes the entire module far more space-efficient. An image sensor is rectangular and using circular elements would introduce a lot of wasted space, and when it comes to periscope lenses, reducing the height of the module would be absolutely crucial.

                    The problem with rectangular lenses, however, is that the bokeh will look completely out of shape - As exemplified by the close-up samples taken by the telephoto lenses on Xperia 1 VI and Xiaomi 14 Ultra. iPhone's 5x lens, on the other hand, doesn't suffer from this issue (despite the bokeh itself looking very busy and awful nonetheless)

The key difference is that they're trying to integrate that mode with the regular camera. Watch Vincent Zhong's X200 Pro review, these phones are insanely capable now. Even portrait mode shots are kind of blur-free. If you want an English review then watch ben's gadget reviews' video on the X200 Pro, he messed around with the phone as well and showed some insane shots.

                                Is that really captured by that phone? the fast shot less blurry and detailed? very interesting. and also that 24gb was insane, they are getting ready for longer update. and probably 12gb will struggle in future apps 5 years later. so they put 24gb, unlike samsung 12gb will be midrange phone estimated around 5 years.

                                  Anonymous, 25 Oct 2024Not what image shows. Look closely. The image provided by OnePlus shows that the direction from which the light enters the prism is opposite to the direction the sensor is facing. On Apple's periscope lens, the sensor is placed in a normal orientation, but the light is bent multiple times in the prism to lengthen the focal length.

                                  OP's prism is a trapezium, while Apple's Tetraprism is a parallelogram. They are obviously trying to achieve a similar effect but are physically different.

                                  I stand corrected regarding how Apple's sensor is facing the display side while OP's sensor is facing backward - It's actually the other way around, so sorry for the confusion.

                                      Conceptually they are both designed to achieve the same effect, but the actual implementations are quite different.

                                        I expect pretty much the same camera performance as last year's phone.
