The smartphone boasts a top-notch flagship camera setup at the back. The primary camera is a 50MP f/1.8 with a 1/1.55-inch sensor and OIS. There’s also a 2x 12MP f/1.6 portrait camera featuring a 1/2.93-inch sensor, as well as an autofocusing ultrawide camera with macro capabilities, boasting a resolution of 50MP with an f/2.2 aperture and a 1/2.76-inch sensor.
