As mentioned, this will be Realme’s first handset with 64MP camera sensor. It was developed by Samsung Semi Conductors and was launched in May. Called Bright GW1, the sensor has a resolution of 64 megapixels and uses Samsung’s ISOCELL and tetracell technology which basically uses a method of combining four pixels into one to yield 16MP binned images. The 1/2-inch sensor features the highest resolution in Samsung’s 0.8μm-pixel image sensor lineup. The other camera in the quad-camera setup module are an 8MP wide-angle camera, a 2MP macro camera and a 2MP depth sensor. On the front is a 16MP camera housed in the waterdrop notch.
