Samsung confirmed during the past days that he is working in collaboration with another manufacturer to develop a phone that comes with an amazing novelty for the whole world. We are talking about the fact that Samsung and Xiaomi are jointly developing a new phone model that has an integrated 108 megapixel camera, the Chinese announcing its existence last week, and now it has been officially confirmed for everyone.
Samsung has announced that it will launch an ISOCELL Bright HMX image sensor capable of taking pictures at a resolution of 108 megapixels, coming only 3 months after the one with a resolution of 64 megapixels. According to the specifications of this image sensor, it will be able to record pictures at a resolution of 12032 x 9024 pixels, which is huge for any kind of device capable of recording images, but video clips have a much lower resolution.

Samsung also announced that the new image sensor has a size of 1/1.33 inch, being the first of its kind, and should take excellent pictures in low light conditions. Samsung also boasts that this image sensor can record photos and videos that reproduce extremely faithfully the colors of the world around us, but also their details, so normally it should be superior to any existing sensors at the moment for mobile phones.
“Samsung continuously strives for innovation in pixel technologies and logic to design our ISOCELL image sensors to capture the world as close as possible to the way our eyes perceive it. Through close collaboration with Xiaomi, ISOCELL Bright HMX is the first mobile image sensor to pack over 100 million pixels and deliver unmatched color reproduction and stunning detail with advanced Tetracell and ISOCELL Plus technology.”
Samsung has also implemented in this image sensor a technology called Smart-ISO, which reduces the ISO of images in strong light to improve pixel saturation and make more vibrant photos. The image sensor can also record video clips in 6K format at 30 FPS, which would be a new first for premium mobile phones from well-known manufacturers, but it is hard to say if the function will be launched.
Samsung develops very good image sensors, and many manufacturers use their cameras, but not all of them implement them as well as the Koreans in their own products.
