Xiaomi tempts us with a possible mobile with a 48 megapixel camera

Xiaomi shows the image of a possible 48 megapixel rear camera, which would be accompanied by a double LED flash.

Everything indicates that in a sector of the mobile market we have returned to the megapixel war, despite the fact that most of the possible and notable advances right now are found in artificial intelligences dedicated to image improvement. Huawei already showed a mobile with 40 megapixels with the Mate 20 and Nokia with 41 in the Lumia 1020, but Xiaomi would like to overcome this.

The president of Xiaomi, Lin Bin, published on Weibo the image that you see at the top of this article, intuiting what a mobile phone would be with a 48 megapixel camera with the sensor protruding a little from the back of the mobile. This clashes a little with the current trend of improving the image exclusively thanks to artificial intelligence after many companies marked the limit of what they could sell to the consumer around 20 megapixels, saving some specific exceptions.

Xiaomi goes right for as many megapixels as possible

This move would make Xiaomi's mobile phone the consumer mobile that has the highest resolution for its photos and videos, but the use of this could be limited to semi-professional uses and would still depend a lot on the ability to make image adjustments, which will surely be they would do with software.

In the absence of seeing this beast in action, it is not clear to us that so much resolution is necessary for normal consumers, even with only 40 of the Huawei Mate 20. Still, it is not surprising that they want to return to this type of easy-to-sell specifications, Although it remains to be seen the utility that the general public can get from it, but we will be aware of the next fairs, such as the CES waiting for news and impressions of this terminal that promises to leave many pending of it.
