the image sensor IMX800 from Sony debuted the Honor 70 series yesterday and the rumors we had heard were not true.

To begin with, the Sony IMX800 is a 1/1.49″ sensor, instead of 1″ as rumored. It is larger than the 1/1.56″ sensor in the Samsung Galaxy S22+, but smaller than, for example, the 1″ sensor in the Sony Xperia Pro I or the 1/1.12″ sensor in the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra.

The Sony IMX800 sensor has an uncommon resolution of 54 megapixels, that is, 8,768 x 6,144 pixels. The added pixels mean that the pixel size is still 1.0 µm even though it is slightly larger in size.

The sensor supports 4-to-1 pixel binning to increase pixel size to 2.0µm and capture 13.5-megapixel or 12-megapixel resolution photos in low-light conditions.

This is pretty much all we know about the Sony IMX800 so far. We expect that sensor to come to more smartphones in the coming months.
