Anonymous, 03 Jul 2026Oppo add 200MP yet Vivo ditch it for 50MP instead. Is there any specific situation where 20... more200MP on such a relatively small sensor has no real-world advantages and binning doesn't magically fix the fact that the pixels being binned are very very small, not to mention smartphone optics can't even resolve 200MP let alone 50MP. Such small pixels usually introduce pixel crosstalk and other flaws at the hardware-level which you have to mask with processing. 50MP at an equivalent sensor size is technically better as while you have less resolution to work with, the individual pixels being binned are way larger, meaning you get better image quality. 200MP is mostly a big number gimmick. We had the megapixel wars back in 2013-2016 and everyone came to the conclusion that you get inferior image quality with higher resolution sensors with smaller individual pixels.

hope that vivo or bbk as a whole has figured out a way
in bringing a 0.98 mm symmetrical slim bezels on their
next lineups and it should be as beautiful as honor600

So like, same sensor as the X300 pro.

Oppo add 200MP yet Vivo ditch it for 50MP instead.
Is there any specific situation where 200MP trumps over 50MP and vice Versa?
For a lay person like me who do not print large poster everyday, what should I look when I choose the phone's camera?

So basically not much changes from base X300. And it can be priced even higher fml. Same chip is dumb, this is barely a X300+ since the 200mp 23mm HPB was great for framing 35 and 50mm crops and portraits.

Maybe the Pro Max is going to be a 16:10. Sister brand Oppo have one coming.
