What’s better than a phone with a 200MP camera? A phone with two of them, but hold your horses
There's an Ultra flagship with the new 200MP large-sized main camera, but phones with two 200MP sensors aren't coming soon.

- Android OEMs are experimenting with a larger 200MP primary sensor that could enhance low-light performance and reduce reliance on dedicated telephoto modules.
- This is likely the new 200MP larger sensor from Sony that is intended to be used as a primary sensor instead of being relegated to periscope telephoto duties.
- While a phone with a 200MP large primary sensor and a 200MP periscope telephoto sensor would be the holy grail, no OEMs are currently working on such a phone.
Phones like the Xiaomi 15 Ultra and the vivo X200 Pro have pushed the boundaries of what you can expect out of your Android camera flagship. One of the highlights of these phones is the 200MP periscope telephoto camera that performs excellently. What if you could have more of that 200MP sensor, possibly even on the primary camera or the ultrawide? If you’re already dreaming of phones with multiple 200MP cameras, you’ll have to wait a while for those dreams to become reality.
Leaker Digital Chat Station has shared on Weibo that an OEM is experimenting with a 200MP primary camera with a larger sensor size but falls short of sharing more concrete details.
