Yesterday a new image surfaced from OPPO showing the new camera for the upcoming OPPO N3 smartphone. This ended lots of speculation and rumors about what form the rotating camera may take. Now the CEO of OPPO released a new image using his Weibo account to share some details about the camera. The biggest news to come from the image is that the sensor will measure 1/2.3-inches in size. This is a sizeable improvement compared to the sensor in the OPPO N1 that measured 1/3.06-inches.
For comparison, the Samsung Galaxy S 5 and the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 have a 1/2.6-inch sensor size while the HTC One (M8) and Apple iPhone 6 have 1/3-inch sensors. In addition to the change in sensor size, CEO Chenming Yong revealed the camera will be a 16MP unit.
According to Yong, OPPO was looking for more than just an increase in the number of pixels captured. They also wanted to improve the quality of the image and improving the sensor size is part of that effort. Between the camera improvements and other rumored specs, the OPPO N3 appears to be on a path to being one of the better devices to hit the market this year.
