Camera: segment leading 4k video front and back

This massive 1/2-inch sensor coupled with a fast f/1.7 aperture lens ensures that your photos are not only sharp but also rich in detail regardless of the lighting.

But what’s a beautiful scene if you can’t capture its immensity? The 8MP ultra-wide camera steps in here, featuring a Sony IMX355 sensor. It expands your view to a 112-degree field of view supported by a 16mm focal length, making it ideal for those expansive landscape shots or group shots where you want everyone in the frame.

For those moments when you’re captivated by the small details of the world — the texture of a leaf, the dew on a spider’s web — the 2MP macro camera lets you get up to 4cm closer to your subject, letting you see the beauty in the tiniest detail.

Selfies and video calls also get a significant boost, thanks to the 32MP Sony IMX615 front camera. With an f/2.4 aperture lens and 21mm focal length, it’s all about capturing the perfect selfie.
