Sony takes on Samsung with new high-megapixel camera sensors

0

Sony is working on two new camera sensors that will change smartphone photography. The company is making a 200MP sensor for top-end phones and a 100MP sensor for both high-end and mid-range devices. These new sensors aim to challenge Samsung, which currently leads the market for high-megapixel camera sensors.

Sony’s 200MP and 100MP Smartphone Sensors Overview

What’s Special About These Sensors?

Sony sensors

The 200MP sensor stands out because it’s larger than typical smartphone sensors at over 1/1.3 inches in size. This means it can capture more light, which helps take better photos in dark settings. The 100MP sensor will be part of Sony’s IMX8 series and will likely appear in phones using Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 and Dimensity 9500 chips.

Chinese phone makers getting on board

Many Chinese smartphone companies like Oppo, Vivo, Realme, and OnePlus plan to use these new sensors. They’ll likely move away from the 50MP sensors they currently use. Sony will use the 200MP sensor in its own phones first before selling it to other companies.

Sony vs. Samsung: The Camera Battle

Samsung already has a strong position with its 108MP and 200MP ISOCELL sensors. The Galaxy S25 Ultra and Vivo X200 Pro both use 200MP sensors today. However, Sony is taking a different approach by targeting both flagship and mid-range phones, while Samsung focuses mainly on top-tier devices.

When Will We See These New Cameras?

The 100MP sensor should appear in phones by late 2025. Sony will put the 200MP sensor in its own phones sometime in 2025 before selling it to other manufacturers.

Will More Megapixels Mean Better Photos?

There’s still debate about whether more megapixels actually improve photo quality. While higher resolution can capture more detail, companies like Apple and Google show that software processing matters just as much. Sony’s larger 200MP sensor could provide better low-light photos and improved zoom capabilities because of its physical size, not just its megapixel count.

But what does this mean for the market?

Sony’s new sensors will create more competition in the smartphone camera market. The company’s strategy of using these sensors in its own phones while also selling them to others helps spread their technology widely. For consumers, this likely means more phones with high-resolution cameras at various price points in the coming years.

That being said, there are things to love about it as well like the fun purple color option, the golden ring (on the black variant), and the endurance it adds. More on that later!Realme Buds T200 Lite Design

In terms of audio drivers, Realme has shipped the Buds T200 Lite with 12.4mm ‘Dynamic Bass’ drivers this time around.

Note that the buds also support SBC audio codec but there’s no fancy LDAC or high-res audio.

Buds T200 Lite will retain at least 80% of its original battery health even after 500 cycles so there’s no worry about longevity as well.

HP Omen Transcend 14 (2025) unveiled with RTX 50 graphics!

0

The Omen Transcend 14 is one of the most beloved compact gaming laptops out there and HP has finally refreshed it with the latest hardware from Intel and NVIDIA. In this piece, we’ll talk about the 2025 edition of the HP Omen Transcend 14 in more detail, including its full specs, improvements, and expected price in Nepal, alongside availability 

HP Omen Transcend 14 (2025) Overview 

Design and Display 

In terms of dimensions, the new Transcend 14 measures 313 x 234 x 18mm (12.3” x 9.2”  x 0.7”) and weighs 1.675kg (3.7 pounds) which is slightly heavier than its predecessor. But that extra heft pays dividends thanks to the new Arrow Lake CPUS and NVIDIA RTX 50 series GPUs. Color options are unfortunately the same as 2024: Ceramic White, and a Shadow Black.

For the display, you can equip the Transcend 14 (2025) with up to a 2.8k OLED screen that refreshes up to 120Hz. Response time is minimal at just 0.2ms and you get excellent brightness (400 nits typical, 500 nits HDR) alongside full coverage of the DCI-P3 gamut.

Performance and Memory 

Under the hood, you can pick between Core Ultra 7 255H or Core Ultra 9 285H Intel processors alongside up to RTX 5070 graphics. Unfortunately, the Transcend 14 doesn’t support higher tier RTX 5080 or RTX 5090 graphics given the small chassis and thermal constraint, and the RTX 5070 is also likely not running at up to its full 100W TGP. For memory, you get 16GB, 32GB, or 64GB LPDDR5X-7467 RAM alongside up to a 2TB NVME SSD. The RAM is soldered to the systemboard and there’s a single M.2 2242 SSD slot.

Connectivity and Extras 

In terms of I/O, the Transcend 14 (2025) features a Thunderbolt port alongside another Type-C port with Display Port support. There are also dual Type-A ports, an HDMI, and an audio combo jack. Being an ultrabook gaming hybrid, the Transcend 14 charges via the Type-C port at up to 140W reaching 50% in just 30 minutes. There’s WiFi 7 support (with BT 5.4) but it’s an optional upgrade to the default WiFi 6E + BT 5.3 setup.
