OnePlus 9 Pro camera leak hints at major disappointment

It doesn't look like the OnePlus 9 Pro will fix the worst thing about the OnePlus 8 Pro.

What you need to know

  • As per a new leak, the upcoming OnePlus 9 series phones will not include a periscope lens.
  • While the vanilla OnePlus 9 isn't expected to have a telephoto lens at all, the Pro could feature a traditional zoom lens.
  • The two phones will still offer several new camera features, including a moon mode and focus peaking.

The OnePlus 9 and 9 Pro are the most anticipated Android phones set to debut in the first half of 2021. Just yesterday, a leak revealed that the two phones will not be very different from their predecessors in the display department. Now, a new leak has revealed a few key details about the cameras on the OnePlus 9 series phones.

As per tipster Max Jambor, the OnePlus 9 series will not include a periscope zoom lens. Previous rumors have also suggested the vanilla OnePlus 9 may not include a telephoto lens. It is tipped to include two 48MP cameras and a third sensor for macro shots. There isn't much that we know about the camera setup on the OnePlus 9 Pro, but it is possible that it will include at least a traditional zoom lens like the one on the OnePlus 8 Pro.

While not every Android flagship phone offers a periscope camera, the feature is becoming increasingly common on the best Android phones. Samsung's latest Galaxy S21 Ultra includes not one but two zoom lenses – including a periscope lens with 10x optical zoom.

Although the camera hardware on the two phones may not be best-in-class in some areas, a teardown of the OnePlus Camera app by XDA Developers suggests they will come with several new features. Like many Xiaomi phones, the upcoming OnePlus 9 series phones will offer a tilt-shift mode, which will allow users to transform the world around them into a miniature version. The upcoming phone will also offer a moon mode with multiple filters for the moon. Some of the other features revealed by the teardown include starburst effect, Hyperlapse mode, and focus peaking.

The hidden cost of food delivery

More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
