The Realme 9 (4G) will be the company’s second phone with a 108 MP sensor, following the Realme 8 Pro. However, the 8 Pro used the older ISOCELL HM2, while the 9 is getting a brand new HM6 sensor. The company will be marketing the new camera under the name “ProLight”. As it explains, the ISOCELL HM6 uses a new NonaPixel Plus layout (3x3 binning), which combined with other improvements will increase the sensor’s light gathering ability by 123% compared to the HM2.
Based on internal testing, Realme says
that the new camera produces brighter photos with better color reproduction
when shooting in low light. The Realme 9 will also use the “ultra-zoom” feature
that is built into the HM6 sensor for lossless zoom using the main camera.
Samsung is yet to officially unveil the new sensor – the Realme 9 will be the
first to use it and the phone itself is still pending announcement. Expect to
hear more details about the HM6 and the new NonaPixel Plus arrangement soon.
