Earlier rumors attributed the largest sensor to the Huawei P50 smartphone
A well-known network informant under the nickname Ice Universe, who often shares exclusive information about the latest developments in the mobile industry, said that Samsung ISOCELL GN2 will be the largest mobile image sensor this year.
Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro is aiming for a record. The smartphone will have the largest image sensor in 2021
He also added that the Samsung ISOCELL GN2 will provide “an unprecedented experience” and will debut later this month in Xiaomi’s new flagship smartphone. Obviously, we are talking about the smartphone Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro, which should be presented on March 30.
This statement seems particularly interesting since Samsung’s 50MP ISOCELL GN2 sensor has a 1 / 1.12-inch optical format. At the same time, rumors indicated that the Sony IMX800 image sensor should debut in the Huawei P50, which will be the world’s first mobile optical format inch sensor. However, today it became known that its optical shape will be 1 / 1.18 inches .
Obviously, the Samsung ISOCELL GN2 image sensor will be the largest mobile sensor at the time of the Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro presentation at the end of the month, but the Samsung ISOCELL GN2 in the Huawei P50 should be even larger. The presentation of Huawei P50 is expected in May this year.
Ice Universe accurately predicted the announcement of Samsung’s ISOCELL GN1 image sensor, which was unveiled a few days later . In addition, he predicted the emergence of smartphones with “waterfall screens”, like the Vivo Nex 3 , and the announcement of the Xiaomi Mi Mix Alpha with a wraparound screen .
