The addition of a 200MP camera to the next phone from the company seems to indicate that it has much bigger ambitions than just a pseudo flagship phone.
The general manager of the parent company of the motos teased an upcoming device by showing a picture of a massive lens along with a message about entering a new era of mobile photography. The post doesn't shed a lot of light on the potential specifications, but it does suggest that the ISOCELL HP1 may be used.
While putting a huge sensor on a phone is intriguing, it is important to remember that there is a lot more to snapping a nice photo than just taking a photo. A lot of Moto phones, including the $1,000 Edge+, have struggled with low-light photography, frequently blurrier or more underexposed images than their rivals. The ISOCELL HP1 supports an impressive 16x binning technique that allows a 200MP sensor to capture a 12.5-MP image with improved light sensitivity, but it will still fall upon the processing of the manufacturer to produce a sharp and well-lit final pic.
The Frontier, which was spotted by TechnikNews in January, is said to be Moto's upcoming 200-MP phone. The phone is expected to feature a triple rear camera module with a huge main lens, a 125 watt fast charging, and a 6.67-inchOLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate. Moto teased an announcement date for the phone sometime in July, so we should know more soon.
In a separate post on Weibo, the company teased a foldable device that will feature a chip from the new generation of chips. It is too early to say for sure, but all signs point to this device being the long-awaited Razr 3, which is good news for flippy phone fans as the previous Razr has been somewhat neglected since its last refresh back in late 2020.
The biggest lesson I have learned is that it looks like the company may be ready to take a break from pushing out new products. If this results in a true new flagship phone and an update to the Razr, that is something worth paying attention to.
