A 1 inch sensor will have same bokeh with 8 megapixel or 400 megapixel

Anonymous, 19 Mar 2025Sonys processing and software is crap. Thats why sony senso... moreComparinh when xperia has their own, not same by other.

I don't care much about megapixels. But if they could make a sensor tailored for slim periscope cameras, that'd be great (so something like JN5 or IMX858).

vik457, 19 Mar 2025Imx925?Just read about these and yes, pretty much exactly like the IMX925 and IMX935 but with even higher bandwidth if possible for 4k 120-240fps or more videos as well.
I never knew these sensors have been around for almost a year as per the data sheet but is only used for industrial applications, such a shame...

S I R E, 19 Mar 2025Never thought SONY would fall for the pixel wars, especiall... moreIts probably easier and cheaper this way as the Phone OEMs do the software and AI anyway themselves.

If they can bring hi res to all their sensors in phone and out hi res raws, just then we can talk about competition.
Having just main camera as hi res is behind the times even on foldables which got worse cameras, not to mention bar phones.
Well, I still consider hi res more valuable than l9w res, but sony isn't offering even low res with superior sensor sizes, what's the point then. 12mp with 200.000ISO would made a sense, otherwise it's better having 200mp and 12.000ISO, not that brands are offering unlimited iso to begin with, ah good times of high iso in phones....

Never thought SONY would fall for the pixel wars, especially with their decades of experience and success in the camera world.
I was more interested/hopefull for a 24-36MP 1"+ size sensor with global shutter. No tiny pixels, no AI, No binning, just pure clean *light is king* approach.

We Wont see 1 inch main cameras for a long time , this is replacing it due to costs, Sony saw a market and is providing for it
200mp main -Sony
200mp periscope- Samsung
So the high pixel numbers are here to stay

It could be a custom sensor for OEM purchase. This is so not Sony.

Since having Xperia Ray, Z3, M4 Aqua, Z3plus, Xperia XZ Premium... etc, all of them was GARBAGE. Same Engineers from Sony with same GARBAGE processing camera, till now to the last phone all of them is just GARBAGES. Same GARBAGE, look where is SONY NOW, nobodys use a sony mobile from years, their cameras are in 2025 from 2012 just GARBAGE. Same stupid processing with their camera.
