has anyone tried video calling on skype/fring/qik?
or taken any photos with the front facing camera?
The htc website specs sheet says its VGA but at the roadshow the demonstrator told me it was 1.3MP and the incredible S has been listed with a 1.3MP front cam too.
Seems odd that HTC would downgrade the camera on its premium device...
(Although tbf they did downgrade user accesible ROM, so who knows?)
thanks
Is the front facing cam on the One S VGA or 1.3 MP? Anyone got info on that?
Come on, you can find the answer by googling in 2 seconds:
http://www.htc.com/us/products/htco...9265377010&jk=HTC+one+s&jsid=20718#tech-specs
It has VGA front camera.
Actually, confusion is what it is. I read where HTC originally had 1.3 MP then they changed it to VGA on the site. Also, some of the reviews I read today said 1.3 MP. I don't know whose making the mistake.
Just wanted some clarity and was being hopeful.
Just took a picture 640x480 so vga
its a 1.3mps-my fault....its vga
Does anyone know the cam specs of Oneplus 6?

according to tech-radar, the specs of the cameras are as follows:
A 20MP and 16MP dual-lens rear camera
A 20MP front-facing camera
Note that these are just rumors at this stage, but here's the source where I got it from if there's anything else you want to know:

Hope this helps.
Final Camera specs.
In the rear, we find a dual camera combo consisting of 20 and 16MP snappers whereas the selfie camera is listed as being a 16MP one. In terms of size and dimensions, the OnePlus 6 will likely measure up at 155.7×75.35×7.75mm and tip the scales at 177gr. Android 8.1 will be running the show; we expected nothing less.
I wonder if it will have the OIS, as this is crucial for me when considering this device.
Well it's all known that the back camera of Nokia 8.1 is using Sony 363 sensor but what about the other like depth sensing and front camera there is no mention of the sensor vendors and their tech specs like sensor size ,as per the below link it is also found that Samsung sensors are being used in back cameras too with same specs but in which models it is not sure
https://www.devicespecifications.com/en/model/74cc4ccf
So request if XDA or someone can get into the technical specs of all the sensors with their respective vendors and sensors sizes and share the information
Thanks
I want to know too... It's 20MP, but the photo result is so bad...
Kinda missing my old Oppo N3, which I can tap to focus for front and back with the rotating camera.
What I think about the front camera is of 5MP which manipulates as 20MP. As if you use Gcam port for Nokia 8.1 it shows front camera as 5MP.

Gcam takes 5Mpix photos with any 5+ Mpix camera. Photos taken with stock camera app are 20 Mpix, and once again, number of megapixels does not represent the quality of photo, just the size.

But my old Oppo N3 has 16MP for both front and back cameras in gcam (kinda old version though).

Well I am pretty much not interested in gcam junk ports,it's not officially meant to be used on other devices other pixel so it has no whatsoever value in my view on any device ,people can shout as much as they want,second the sensor does the binning from original Nokia cam app it does not and should not have any access to the algorithms used by Nokia.this topic is related to the sensor manafacturers as there is lot of misinformation or information floating around as always of Nokia cameras and requested the XDA team to get into the crux of it ,anyway I am sure the front camera module uses 1/3.1 Samsung sensor and the depth one too on the rear the main 12mp is imx363 as confirmed by Nokia care on the email

It's not the GCam limitations but the sensor and camera app of Nokia 8.1. You can install a hardware info app from play store and it will tell the Nokia 8.1 front cam as 5MP. And in true sense it is a 5MP sensor which uses pixel bining to produce 20MP images. But the picture quality is not up to the mark even after pixel bining.
I installed hw info app,it shows 20.1mp sensor.

Nope, going from 5mp to 20mp would be a upscaling using something like bilinear interpolation.
Pixel binning is combining pixels to produce a lower resolution but with an increased low light performance, in the case of the Nokia 8.1 it is combining 4 pixels hence the reduction to 5mp from 20.
Gcam is not designed for the anything other than Google products, it doesn't have a clue what is it supposed to be doing on the Nokia 8.1, it just doesn't contain the software necessary to use the front sensor correctly.

Thanks mate for a conclusive reply. I do agree with you that it may be the interpolation in Nokia 8.1 front camera. As I am no longer using Nokia 8.1 so I can't comment on it any further.
Gcam by itself doesn't limit the supported resolutions to tight values. It's the camera stack implementation of most qcom and non-qcom phones that exposes only the binned raw camera streams from quad bayer sensor.

I have a Realme XT device. I found out that if I cover 64 mp camera in 64mp mode it still works, basically 8mp camera is working but if go for other camera modes if I cover them screen is blocked as it is supposed to, though I heard that camera sensors work together but I still feel strange, can anyone explain ??
