Yes, it’s probably time to get used to the penta camera (meaning a five-sensor camera) moniker.
Xiaomi has teased (via Android Authority) a new smartphone called the Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro (an unusually awkward name for Xiaomi), that boasts a pretty impressive feature: a 108-megapixel, penta rear camera with 5x optical zoom.
Xiaomi already sort-of launched a 108-megapixel phone — the limited release Mi Mix Alpha with its memorable wrap-around screen — but the CC9 Pro will likely be the first widely available phone with Samsung’s new 108-megapixel sensor. Although the megapixel count may seem excessive, the phones equipped with it will primarily use a technique called pixel-binning to create sharper, brighter 27-megapixel images.
