Nothing officially reveals the CMF Phone 2 Pro's camera system

18 April 2025
Get ready for a "best-in-segment triple camera".

Sort by:

A lot of people who will be buying this consider it a "secondary phone".

So they don't need cameras, don't need OIS, don't need telephoto, don't need ultrawide or even water proofing. Bezels don't have to be thin, they just have to be symmetrically uniform. (Pixel 9a bezels are a good example)

They need: NFC, stereo speakers, headphone jack, microSD, removable battery, big battery, good looks, & very-affordable price. (msrp of $200 max)

People will buy it to:
- Stream cloud games with a mobile controller (Wifi 6 is good for streaming/casting)
- Retro game emulation handheld (PS2/Dolphin emulation)
- Using it as a mobile hotspot (to save battery life on their other devices)
- Reverse charging other devices
- Playing videos/podcasts in the kitchen
- Handing it to kids
- Connecting it to an AUX cable to play music in the car
- An Android Auto screen
- Connecting it to a projector/TV via USB-C
- Using it as a microSD reader to access terabytes of data

Focus on making it a glorified power bank, stop trying to turn it into a phone. 🙄

        They will put a bad price on it.

          Not the first telephoto in the segment. Anyone remembering the Galaxy A72 from years ago?

            NeonHD, 18 hours agoRegardless of what sensors they used, I think CMF does dese... moreThe telephoto is arguably the most useless out of all these cameras. Yes, the UW is a pitifully tiny 8MP sensor but at least you're getting a perspective the main camera and telephoto can't pull off. The main camera is capable of in-sensor 2x zoom that looks almost like optical zoom, which ultimately makes the 2x telephoto kind of redundant. 3x-3.5x optical zoom should be standard at this point considering 99% of main cameras nowadays can double as a wide and 2x telephoto at the same time

              Oh so the leaks from the reddit was true. This makes everything all the more interesting >:)
              I wanna see how the new chipset vs the old one stacks up. Just throw in NFC and stereo speakers and it's actually the best budget phone out there.

                      This honestly just destroyed any argument for the bullshit depth and macro lenses on other budget phones

                                        Regardless of what sensors they used, I think CMF does deserve some praise here for adding in a telephoto. No useless maco at least.
