In collaboration with Xiaomi, Samsung has unveiled a sensor called ISOCELL Bright HMX, which is a 108-megapixel smartphone camera sensor. Samsung states that this new sensor is the first sensor to exceed the 100 million-pixel milestone. The sensor will enable smartphone users to produce high-resolution images as well as shoot 6k video at 30 fps (frames per second). The sensor is able to produce high-quality 27-megapixel images by combining groups of four pixels into one, which results in far brighter images in low-light environments. Samsung is equipped with ‘Smart-ISO’ technology that will automatically adjust the sensor’s ISO levels to compensate for brightly lit or low-lit environments.

Samsung hasn’t announced which phone will use this new sensor, however, I am sure that the sensor will be tested to the limit to see the quality of pictures and low light performance of the sensor.
