Realme’s commitment to advancing smartphone photography continues with the upcoming Realme 13 Pro+. During a recent showcase, Realme provided an early hands-on experience with the device, highlighting its camera capabilities and partnerships.
Camera Innovation and Partnerships
Realme has historically pushed the boundaries of smartphone photography, and the Realme 13 Pro+ is no exception. The company has announced a strategic partnership with Sony, which supplies the sensors for both the main and periscope cameras. The Realme 13 Pro+ will feature the new Sony LYT-701 sensor in the main camera, though details on this sensor remain sparse.
Periscope Lens and Advanced AI
The Pro+ model also introduces a periscope lens equipped with a LYT-600 sensor, offering 3x optical magnification (73mm) and 6x lossless zoom (146mm) using in-sensor zoom. Realme claims impressive image quality even at 10x magnification. The device will also feature a 24mm main camera and a 16MP ultra-wide camera.
AI-Based Image Processing: Hyperimage+
Realme’s new AI-based image processing pipeline, Hyperimage+, plays a crucial role in enhancing image quality. Hyperimage+ consists of three components:
- Cutting-Edge Optics: High-quality lenses and sensors to capture the best raw data.
- On-Device AI Algorithms: These algorithms enhance light and shadow, ensure natural skin tones, create realistic bokeh effects, and improve group shots.
- Cloud-Based AI Image Editing: For additional image touch-ups, users can leverage cloud-based AI tools.
