At the end of the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2018, Android Authority had an exclusive interview with Huawei’s CEO, Yu Chengdong (Richard Yu). And during the interview, CEO Yu hinted that camera tech and AI integration are the next big battlegrounds for all smartphone manufacturers.
He then specifically stated that his company wants to have DSLR-like cameras in the next flagship phones. Huawei wants to bring “DSLR like focal lengths and zoom to the mobile ecosystem”.
The company has made great progress with AI integration by launching its latest Kirin 970 chip and EMUI 8.0 ROM with AI capabilities.
Although if the company would really push this innovative idea, they won’t be the first to launch a smartphone with DSLR-like cameras. We’ve already seen those features on Panasonic’s CM1 and Nokia’s Lumia 1020.
