Two days ago Realme introduced the XT model with the same sensor but Xiaomi has already made the full presentation. Why would you need a 64-megapixel camera? Like 48-megapixel phones, you cannot capture full-resolution photos.

Both sensor designs contain 0.8µm pixels but grouped four together to provide better sensitivity to light. Using this technique a 48-megapixel camera produces 12-megapixel images while with the new 64-megapixel sensor you will get 16-megapixel resolution.
