Redmi To Showcase New Camera Tech On August 7: Likely To Introduce 64MP Camera

Redmi, the sub smartphone brand from Xiaomi is all set to showcase its new camera tech on August 7. It's speculated that the company will showcase a new 64MP quad-camera smartphone. By doing so, the company will have an edge over Realme, which is also planning to showcase a similar tech on August 8.

What Do We Know About The Upcoming Redmi Smartphone

The invite doesn't reveal much about the features of the device. Instead, it reads "images of the future," hinting the unveil of camera-centric technology that we are referring to. The event is scheduled in China. We can expect the device to hit the subcontinent shores after its China launch.

As of now, the information on the upcoming Redmi smartphone is very limited. The smartphone is likely to be a mid-tier device, which might sit between the Redmi Note and the Redmi K series. It is most likely to use the Samsung GW-1 64MP sensor with additional cameras like a telephoto, ultra-wide-angle, and a depth sensor. The GW-1 sensor uses pixel binning technology to capture 16MP images. Using the manual mode, the camera can also capture 64MP images with better sharpness and detail.

The upcoming Redmi phone is most likely to be powered by a mid-tier chipset, capable of processing 64MP images and handling day-to-day tasks without much of a fuss. Additionally, the phone is likely to offer some of the trending features like a pop-up selfie camera, in-display fingerprint sensor, and a bezel-less AMOLED display.
