Tecno has unveiled three new camera technologies that are likely to be used in some of its future smartphones. These new technologies are claimed to improve the phone camera’s output quality and offer users an enhanced imaging experience. Among the technologies unveiled are the W-shaped Adjustable Physical Aperture, the Liquid Telephoto Macro Lens which is claimed to be an industry-first invention and a Universal Tone imaging solution. According to the company, these features, aided by artificial intelligence, bionic vision, and other advancements ensure better photos than were provided by preceding models.
The new technologies were showcased at Tecno’s Future Lens 2023 event in Shanghai. An official press release stated that these new features will be used in upcoming smartphones in the coming year, but it did not confirm the models. We will likely find most of these features packed into the next Tecno Phantom X handsets.
Notably, the Phantom X2 and X2 Pro were launched in China in December 2022. With the new W-shaped Adjustable Physical Aperture technology, Tecno employs bionic vision to offer solutions for over-exposed, strongly backlit photos. The company explains that this helps manage light with more precision than normal lenses and prevents glares in images. It is claimed to provide an ideal balance of light and shadows in the photographs captured.
