Sony Xperia i1 "Honami" - the first smartphone in the world with 4K recording camera?
It seems that Sony wants to make better things when it
comes about the smartphones, by deciding to improve the quality of the
recording video camera. Personally, I think this is awesome, and this
smartphone with 4K capabilities will be a serious enemy in the battle
with Lumia 1020 and Nokia PureView 808. If the slides from the Weibo's
page about this project are authentic, well, that means Sony is going to
be the first company that will show off with it's smartphone with such
capabilities. That performance could be reached with the contribution of
the Snapdragon 800 chipset, well known as the first processor SoC
capable to record and play 4K videos with 30 fps (frames per second),
and that means a resolution of 3840x2160 pixels, and 2K with 60 fps,
(2560x2048 pixels). In a surprising way, the resolution announced for
the video recording function by the Sony Xperia i1 it'a a little out of
range, in a very good way: about 4000x2000 pixels.
The time of video compression and the sampling ratio
it's another topic that needs to be decided. We know that the 4K videos
are 4 times more detailed than the ones recorded in Full HD (1080x1920),
the real problem will be the occupied space of that video. However,
Sony has more experience than any other companies with the 4K
dimentions, because of it's 4K television. They will find out a solution
for the internal storage of the smartphone. A 20 mins of 4K footage
takes about 20-25 GB of storage.Let's hope this project will be finished soon!
