Sony is running into a major stumbling block in the world of telephony, for quite some time, approximately since 2012 (with the Xperia Arc S) or 2013 (with the Xperia Z) that absolutely does not surprise anyone. Although it offers devices with powerful features, we find little innovation in terms of design and quite conservative Android layers, which is why its mobile division is in question. Which There is no question about the quality of Sony's photographic sector, and today they have confirmed that they will continue to work with Apple in the coming years to give them the best cameras.
It is no surprise that Apple uses elements of direct competition for its mobile phone, an example is that Samsung has provided Apple with processors and LCD panels for a long time, on the other hand Qualcomm (manufacturer of the famous Snapdragon range) supplies Apple of the LTE chips that assemble their devices, and thus a significant number of components. But one that has never been questioned is the sensor and the camera output of the iPhone, that is why Apple will continue to strictly maintain its agreement with Sony for the manufacture of these types of components.
Digitimes has obtained information about Sony's plans for the future, confirming that the Japanese company will only work with three brands in this year 2017, Huawei, Oppo and Apple are the three chosen, two Chinese also famous for their cameras, and the North American one of yore. Thus, Sony will continue to send CMOS sensors for the next iPhone models, so photographic quality will continue to be an important attraction when it comes to getting a device from the apple, let us have no doubt. In the meantime, Sony is going through the golden age of photography and game consoles, leaving a little more aside the telephony and television sector.
hopefully they use the same sensor used by the sony xperia XZ that allows recording at 960 fps
