★ Specification comparison ★
Similar to Samsung S2 series, Huawei P4 series also has three products with different sizes. Among them, the smallest P4 has many simplifications, such as resolution, HDR support, main camera anti-shake, wide-angle lens, ToF, front camera, super slow motion, wired charging speed, wireless charging, waterproof and dustproof level ... < P > Again, at present, the "optical zoom" on most mobile phones is essentially a digital zoom to connect several fixed-focus cameras, and these cameras usually have different CMOS specifications. However, the "optical zoom" on cameras and video cameras depends entirely on the change of the position of the lens lens group, which will not affect the CMOS specifications, but also realize smooth and continuous viewing angle changes. Mobile phones usually use the main camera with an equivalent focal length of 24-3mm as the focal length, so the super wide-angle lens becomes .5x and .6x..

Main camera: CMOS size has been improved again, but it is discounted for daily use
P4 is fully equipped with 1/1.28-inch four Bayer RYYB CMOS (model or IMX7) with about 5 million effective pixels. This is the largest CMOS size among the mobile phones sold, which is about 8% more than the 1 million pixel CMOS of Xiaomi and Samsung. The size of a single pixel is 1.2μm, and it is 4-in-1 in daily shooting, and the equivalent size is about 2.4 μ m.. This is not only the same as the fusion size of Samsung S2 Ultra in daily shooting (12 million pixels), but also the same as the single pixel size of 1 inch CMOS with about 2 million pixels such as Sony RX1 series and Canon G7X/G5X.
paired with this CMOS is a lens with an equivalent focal length of about 23mm. It should be noted that Huawei chose to design "1.x" to be 27mm, and then it can use this CMOS when it is ".8x".
in addition to its large size, this CMOS also supports full-pixel dual-core AF, which means that it actually has about 1 million photodiodes (but it can't directly output 1 million pixel photos). Huawei calls this kind of focusing "8-core focusing" because four adjacent pixels are regarded as one use in daily shooting. It should be noted that Huawei P4 series can't support omnidirectional focusing like IMX689 used in OPPO Find X2 series.
finally, the main camera of P4 Pro+ has OIS anti-shake, and SMA deformation memory alloy is still used to drive the anti-shake motor.
Super telephoto: 1x magnification and equivalent focal length of 24mm
P4 Pro+ adopts Huawei's second-generation periscope telephoto camera, and the equivalent focal length of P3 Pro is increased from about 125mm to about 24mm. Although the CMOS size of telephoto lens is much smaller than 1/1.28 inch, it is still surprising that it can reach 24mm with the size of mobile phone and periscope lens.
judging from the structural diagram displayed at the press conference, this super telephoto lens of P4 Pro+ is really very precise, and the light has been refracted five times inside the fuselage. At present, we don't know the size of this CMOS, only know that the effective pixel is 8 million and the aperture is F4.4. It should be noted that the 1x telephoto camera of P4 Pro+ does not adopt RYYB CMOS as the 5x telephoto camera of P4.
finally, Huawei also equipped the P4 Pro+ with a 3x telephoto camera with the same specifications as the P4, with an aperture of F2.4, an equivalent focal length of 8mm and optical image stabilization. So, the four imaging cameras of P4 Pro+ correspond to focal lengths of 18mm, 23mm, 8mm and 24mm respectively? ——? This means that 28-5mm, which is widely used in daily life, needs to rely on the digital zoom of the main camera.
*? The telephoto lens of Samsung S2 Ultra consists of a 1/2-inch four-Bayer CMOS with about 48 million pixels and a lens with an equivalent focal length of about 1mm. If it can output at 48 million pixels, it is equivalent to a "1/4 inch 12 million pixels about 2mm specification" after cutting to a quarter. However, after using S2 Ultra, ET found that it can only output about 12 million pixels of photos when using telephoto, which really can't be compared with Huawei P4 Pro+.
super wide angle: the 1/1.54-inch outsole is the same as Mate 3 Pro
P4 Pro+ uses the same "focus plane" as Mate 3 Pro as the super wide angle, and has a 1.54-inch CMOS (model or IMX68) with an equivalent focal length of 18mm. The ratio of this CMOS is 3:2, and the 4-in-1 ratio is 384×2592 in daily shooting, and the 16-in-1 ratio in low light achieves better 18P high-sensitivity image quality. The single pixel size after 16-in-1 is equivalent to 4.48μm, which is larger than APS-C CMOS with 24 million pixels/26 million pixels.
in fact, these features, Mate 3 Pro should be exactly the same. TechInsights conducted disassembly analysis before, and it has been confirmed that this CMOS(IMX68) is a 4×4 Bayer structure. Huawei is using practical actions to prove that high pixels are just gimmicks, or that large pixels are real.
▲TechInsights vs Mate 3? Analysis of Pro Ultra Wide Angle Camera (IMX68)
Although this "focus plane" supports super slow motion of 768FPS and super high sensitivity of ISO512, it does not have strong macro capability.
Other functions:
Huawei also introduced the 8-channel color temperature sensor and AI algorithm library, which I believe can help RYYB CMOS to provide better color reproduction and improve the color cast under some specific light sources. At the same time, XD Fusion image engine and the third generation AI image engine have also achieved many advanced functions, such as gesture capture, eliminating passers-by, and de-reflecting.
it is worth mentioning that Huawei P4 series supports eSIM cards this time. In this way, when using the NM card to expand storage, you can also use eSIM to realize dual card dual standby, which solves the problem that the second SIM card and the NM card can not be used at the same time. However, this function has not been introduced in the domestic official website at present, and it is not supported that there are still some unsettled places with operators.
the above is the introduction of P4 Pro+ camera function that ET can present to you at this stage.
