The novelty of the Chinese manufacturer is codenamed Xiaomi CAS, its presentation should take place in July this year. A smartphone, which is logical, given such a steep optical zoom, will receive a periscope camera.

Insider leaks indicate that Xiaomi will claim 120x zoom in its marketing campaign, however, this is a digital zoom. The optical one will be 12x, but this is enough to plug the Huawei P40 Pro with its 10x optical zoom and the other best camera phones on the market.

The main camera will use a 108-megapixel Samsung HM2 image sensor manufactured by Samsung, which differs from the sensor installed in Xiaomi Mi 10. At the same time, Xiaomi CAS is positioned as a middle-class smartphone that will receive Qualcomm Snapdragon 775G platform, NFC module, and support for fifth-generation networks.
