Sony may release its first 200MP sensor for smartphones
By ForGeeks Samsung has long offered 200-megapixel sensors for smartphones, while Sony has traditionally stuck to 50-megapixel sensors with an inch format. Now, however, rumors have surfaced that the Japanese company may change its strategy and release its own 200-megapixel sensor.
And now, the Japanese company is expected to launch its own 200-megapixel sensor.
Sony’s new sensor could beat the competition
According to a Digital Chat Station insider, Sony is developing a 200-megapixel sensor that will be used as the main camera in smartphones. In a post on the Weibo platform, he also noted that this sensor will be “slightly larger” than the 1/1.3-inch size.
Sony is also developing a 200-megapixel sensor that will be used as the main camera in smartphones.
In comparison, Samsung’s largest 200-megapixel sensors are just 1/1.3 inches in size. This means that Sony’s sensor will be able to capture more light, potentially leading to better picture quality, especially in low-light conditions.

The features of the new sensor
Despite the high resolution, 200-megapixel images don’t always live up to expectations, as their quality depends on many factors, including image processing and pixel size. However, this sensor will allow 2x and 3x shots with minimal detail loss, which may reduce the need for a separate telephoto lens.
A new sensor like this will allow you to take 2x and 3x shots with minimal detail loss, which may reduce the need for a separate telephoto lens.
Also, it remains an open question whether Sony will use its advanced technologies, such as dual-layer transistors, to further improve the quality of its pictures. If the company integrates such innovations, its 200-megapixel sensor could become a serious competitor to Samsung’s solutions.
