The camera hump being cockeyed and not centered is gonna drive a bunch of people crazy.

    Its a wonder many brands just push for nice looks and great numbers instead of upgrading their products quality.
    Samsung folds lack hi res uw and tele,
    Vivo folds/bar phones lack in HDR,
    Honor folds/ lack in image processing(digital artifacts, loss of detail, no gain in hi res),
    Sony phones got great colors but poor detail(no hi res raws or sensors),
    Apple got awesome processing but lack in bringing latest hw - big sensors/resolution(special case like with sony and samsung folds),
    Huawei was capable of creating Mate X2 hi res so full of detail, its the top performer even now - they dont do that anymore, pt2: their fake focal length is not nice for raw shooters,
    Xiaomi got a great hw, coming with even filter case ideas, but their sw is lagging behind, like hi res mode get more detail than just zooming in I think, still somehow not impressive,
    Oppo got the greatest hw, good processing etc but they lack enthusiasm for photography which is felt specially in latest fold with 8mp sensor and too narrow ultrawide (though that is true for many) - they also lack in hi res mode.
    LG - they gave up despite bringing trends in design and features - shame they couldn't get it to produce money...
    200mp is great, but that alone and it being in just main camera etc is not the best for overall experience. We have sensors going from 1/1.3'' to 1/4'' in one phone, its not better for experience...its better if sensors are more consistent...maybe some day.

      wtf.. v5 not juat old yet.. now they planning for v6 already??? just wtf

        Including 200MP ultrawide? That seems a bit excessive, given that the zoom gap between ultrawide and wide camera aren't that big.

            I really hope the V6 does have flagship camera modules. The whole point of foldables is media consumption and editing - or other productivity. It's so devalued if the camera is crap - which all of them are currently.

              200 MP does not means a good camera..it's just inflated numbers that brings sales to asian markets. They just love number and spec sheets. But quality and camera software implementation is another thing.
              And after sales services are the worst here in Spain..it something goes wrong with your device...you are left alone

                More megapixel is better, its very well known, it mean better quality camera (sarcastic)

                  Not impressed. For sensor size upto ~1/1.3", 200 MP have limited benefits over 50 MP for a main lens, and practically nil benefits for a telephoto lens.

                  200MP would have tangible benefits only when you are using a 1-inch type sensor (or close to it) with wide enough aperture. For example, something like the setup of Xiaomi 15 ultra viz. 1-inch sensor with f/1.63. Even here, the setup would have diffraction limited resolution of ~170MP.

                  Now, taking the case of long telephoto setup of Xiaomi 15 Ultra - 1/1.3" sensor with f/2.6, the diffraction limited resolution is ~33MP. So not much point using anything above 50MP.

                    dang if it's a 1/1.4" main cam it's gonna be insane. That'd put it on par with the oneplus 13 if not even better. At least in hardware. These chinese manufacturers focus on their ultras so much in terms of software that they completely forget about their foldables. All the R&D goes to foldable hardware and foldable ui software and the cameras get 2 dollars

                      Apple has placed a square or circular geometric shape, and this is not owned by anyone, but it did not include a screen or change the shape or location of its cameras, as some claim that it is stealing the shapes from potato phones.
