Huawei P60 Ultra could be the biggest camera phone
With the Huawei P60 series, Huawei is preparing to mark a return to the flagship era and there are inputs that the phone maker will also bring an “Ultra” model, which could be the biggest camera phone of the year.
Huawei has a long history of dominating the mobile camera world with its unmatched imaging technology. The company began its journey with Leica to bring in the best in the world photography experience for consumers.
These early smartphones with Leica are Huawei P10 Pro, P20 Pro, P30 Pro, P40 Pro+, and P50 Pro. With each model, Huawei invented new technologies and increased camera counts.
P10 Pro has a new dual camera, P20 Pro launched with sharp colors and triple cameras that have been widely adored by customers. P30 Pro established itself as one of the best-selling phones by the tech maker but its camera with its first-ever periscope zoom introduced far-reaching zoom for the smartphone industry.
It has an RYYB color filter array Octa PD autofocus that is the first to use among smartphone makers. Huawei P40 Pro+ became the first phone to launch a five-camera model including an ultra-vision lens that furnishes nighttime photography.
On the other hand, P40 Pro+ has two telephoto cameras – an optical and a periscope camera. These generate 10X optical at 240mm, 3X at 80mm, and 20x Hybrid as well as 100X digital zoom.
The Chinese tech company also brought in the XD Fusion engine which combines the ISP and NPU to provide the best possible camera capabilities. Huawei P50 Pro is one of the best examples of aesthetics and it arranges the camera inside a dual-ring system called Dual Matrix.
Huawei took two steps further and achieved better colors powered by True-Chroma Image Engine, which takes the color accuracy near to the human eye. With these phones, Huawei created a tornado in the smartphone world and a trend that is later followed by the likes of Samsung, Apple, and Chinese phone makers.
