Huawei Honor 6 Plus goes official, dual camera and 0.1s focusing time in tow
22
The use of two sensors with two lens kits allows for much more light to be raked in when taking a shot, thus exposing night scenes better, and also focusing much faster - Huawei claims 0.1s focusing time, which, if it holds water, might make it one of the fastest mobile cameras around. The dual-camera kit is framed with zinc alloy in order to keep the sensors in parallel without any misalignments, which is a pretty important feat for such a twin arrangement. Needless to say, the two lens system allows for the depth-of-field effects we are seeing with the One (M8) and other camera apps, but there's also other stuff onboard that allegedly bring quality noise reduction and low-light performance, which you can see detailed in the video below.
The Honor 6 Plus will be up for preorder as soon as tomorrow from the Huawei mobile shop in the source link below, with shipping starting a week after. Pricing is pegged at 1999 yuan (~$323) for the 3G version, and 2499 yuan (~403) for the 4G LTE one, with both models sporting dual SIM card slots, with one slot taking micro SIMs, and the other a combined nano SIM/microSD slot. Not bad at all for all these specs, and we can't wait for the first samples from the “Symmetrical dual camera technology“ to start trickling down the pipe.
