Ming-Chi Kuo does not want to go on Christmas holidays without releasing some of his reports. A TF International Security Security analyst has mentioned a trend that will be targeted at all smart phones we will see implemented in 2020: good zoom. Obviously we will see significant improvements to this feature in all iPhone competitors.
Koo specifically mentions the Huawei P40 Pro as one of the most lucrative phones in this category, coming up with a tenx display strategy. It will compare a lot to the good 2x zoom that most modern iPhones have now, though Apple will have its own plans to compete in this.
Apple and the path to a guaranteed future for the future
And what are these plans? Yes, because now the rumors are showing progress in the availability of three-dimensional visual space thanks to ToF cameras (Flight time), which will also allow significant inugmented and / or virtual progress. We are able to see the first steps of this on the iPad Pro that we should see introduced next year. From DigiTimes they also talk about lenses with improved durability.
Possibly, we will see the first smartphone with an enhanced optical zoom presented at the Mobile World Congress of 2020, to be in Barcelona from February 24 next. Between these developments and the first major steps for 5G networks, this year looks like a good challenge for all mobile phone manufacturers.
