The first 13MP Dual-Lens Mediatek flagship smartphone in the WorldUMIDIGI

As we’ve all noticed, dual camera setups have almost become a must on all the latest flagship phones, going from the iPhone 7 Plus to the Huawei P9, Mate 9 and Xiaomi Mi5s Plus. All these phones run on Qualcomm, Huawei and Apple’s proprietary SoCs, none of them actually runs on MediaTek.

That’s why UMIDIGI claims to be the first phone maker to pack a dual camera setup on a MediaTek-powered device, the UMIDIGI Z Pro. While there’s no doubt we’ve already seen two cameras on cheaper MediaTek phones, they usually use a lower resolution secondary camera, which sometimes does not have any real use other than aesthetics.

On the Z Pro, UMIDIGI instead packed two 13MP cameras using Sony IMX258 sensors for high quality photos. They differ in that one is a normal RGB shooter, while the secondary cameras is monochrome (black and white), similarly to what happens on Huawei/Honor phones.

    What phones have a phony dual lens setup?
    Bought a LeEco Cool1 Dual and it’s on transit, and I dunno if it has true dual rear camera setup or not. Since LeEco also has a Cool Changer 1C which has a single rear camera and I don’t know if there’s a difference in photos between the two of them.

    (what I posted on gizmochna) The “Do You Know” part is really stupid. The 3 types dual lens explanation are made-up UMI nonsense. I hope they don’t parade that part at MWC. It’d be embarassing. The name UMIDIGI itself already is. haha.

    Real facts, There’s only 2 types of dual cam setup, 1st is with monochrome secondary cam, 2nd is with wide angle secondary cam. Not that phoney, entry and flagship nonsense from UMI.

    and to add the black and white pictures from the video are all stock images. You can find it if you google it. It’s not taken my UMIDIGI Z PRO. Lies and very misleading.
