Ever since the unveiling of the Snapdragon 888 chipset in December last year, smartphone manufacturers have been busy trying to win a share of the attention by teasing their upcoming flagship products. Joining the fray, we have the ZTE Axon 30 Pro, which is now expected to launch with an insane 200MP camera. Ni Fei, the company’s President took to Weibo to talk about the ZTE Axon 30 Pro’s camera. He confirmed that the upcoming smartphone will be able to shoot photos with a resolution of 200MP or over 2.7 billion pixels. It will also be capable of capturing photos in low-light scenarios which are as dark as 0.1 lumens, 4K HDR video recording and 10-bit colour support.  The post also mentions the use of the Spectra 580 image signal processor and the Snapdragon 888. This will be a significant change over the ZTE Axon 20 from last September – which was powered by the mid-range Snapdragon 765G.

Xiaomi’s General Manager Liu Weibing has highlighted the same in his post on Weibo and justified the reason why none of Xiaomi’s phones came with a ToF sensor.  Taking a dig at other brands that had promoted ToF sensors heavily during the launch events and otherwise, he said: “Today it suddenly occurred to me that brands that originally promoted the TOF function no longer carry the TOF function in new products phones.” (Image credit: Weibo) However, he also subtly added that “but this year more new products will carry 100 million pixels,” suggesting that 108m...
