Qualcomm introduces 192 MP camera sensor support to some of its chipsets

The craze of camera pixels is being important at present. Many smartphone brands are in a race to brink better camera specs with awesome improvements to make it unique from others. Now every phone maker is ready to include 48 Mp camera sensor in their second device ranging right from the budget to flagship ones. Making this movement more strong, Qualcomm has silently upgraded the specifications of some of its recent Snapdragon chipsets with support for capturing 192MP photos.

Now a list of chipsets from Qualcomm is updating their support for 192MP pictures, this means at any moment we can expect an upcoming smartphone will be able to capture a 192-megapixel image through its camera.  Already we saw Xiaomi jumping to 48-megapixel bandwagon with a midrange Snapdragon 660 chipset that supports for 48MP images to be clicked from a camera and Nokia will also launch its 5 camera sensors at the back. So keeping all this in mind the company is experimenting to push the camera boundaries.

This select chipset who support single camera resolution up to 192-megapixels may also detail of things such as hybrid auto-focus, slow-motion video recording limits, and more. The chipset in the question is the flagship Snapdragon 855 and Snapdragon 845 SoCs, followed by the mid-range Snapdragon 710, Snapdragon 675 and Snapdragon 670 chipsets. But wait, the 192-megapixels is just the theoretical limit for a single camera ISP, as of now there is no information on the launch of a smartphone with a 192 MP camera sensor, but we hope to see smartphones rocking such high-res sensors in the near future.

In related news, Qualcomm unveiled the Snapdragon 712 Mobile Platform with Quick Charge 4+ technology. The Snapdragon 712 is also built on a 10-nm process and houses eight Qualcomm Kryo 360 CPUs with a clock speed of 2.3GHz alongside an Adreno 616 GPU and a Hexagon 685 DSP. This chip took an upgrade over the Snapdragon 710 by providing up to a 10 per cent increase in performance.
