In mobile phone camera CMOS products, we often see some popular CMOS appearing in various mobile phone products, such as Sony IMX586 and IMX766 and Samsung JN1. In the field of periscope telephoto, the 1/2-inch 64 million pixel OV64B seems to have become the leader of the 3x periscope telephoto, but in the future, this CMOS is about to face a new challenger, Sony IMX882 and LYT600 may replace it as the new 3x periscope telephoto main CMOS.

It has been revealed that there will be a lot of Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 and Dimensity 9400 flagship mobile phones will use Sony IMX882 or LTY600 as a 3x periscope telephoto secondary camera, both specifications are 1/1.95 inches, 50 million pixels, a single pixel size of 0.8μm, in addition to the CMOS size is slightly larger than OV64B, Sony IMX882 / LTY600 Another major advantage is that the underlying circuit process is more advanced, dynamic range and data reading speed is higher, The focusing speed should also be more advantageous, and the image tuning should be more convenient.

It is worth mentioning that the camera module of Sony IMX882 is very thin and light, and its theoretical volume is close to upright, so it can better control the problem of lens bulge, which is also good news for users who complain about camera bulge.

However, it is not that OV64B is all shortcomings in the face of these two challengers, because Sony IMX882/ LTY600 adopts a 2*2 OCL microlens design, so the picture loss rate is higher, and at the same time, OV64B Although the bottom is slightly smaller, but after all, the number of pixels is higher, and OV64B is stronger in telephoto shooting.

Of course, mobile phone manufacturers have also taken this problem into account, and the solution they give is to make up for the shortcomings of the loss of telephoto image quality through AI image algorithms, and some mobile phone manufacturers have even created a 10X hybrid zoom to start the AI large model of the super-resolution algorithm, then we can see if the Sony IMX882 / LTY600 AI zoom algorithm can overturn the OV64B physical optics high pixel cropping.
