OnePlus and Sony announce camera sensor partnership for OnePlus 12
In This Article
OnePlus has announced a unique camera sensor partnership with Sony ahead of the launch of the OnePlus 12.
The Oppo-owned phone maker has taken toWeiboto announce a team-up with Sony. The OnePlus 12 will represent “the world’s premiere of the high-end sensor jointly developed by OnePlus and @SONY Semiconductor – LYTIA” (quotes via machine translation).
Last month’sOnePlus Open(pictured) was notable for being a foldable phone with a genuinely good camera system. That was, in large part, thanks to the adoption of a Sony LYTIA image sensor, which features a stacked configuration to enable boosted light capture in a smaller footprint – perfect for space-constrained phones.
As you might expect, Sony’s latest flagship phone, theSony Xperia 1 V, also features a main image sensor with a stacked configuration.

If you want plenty of data and would rather tackle a fair amount of the cost upfront to avoid hefty monthly rates, then this deal is the one for you.
While this post doesn’t tell us much about the LYTIA sensor in the OnePlus 12, we do know that it’s going to be a brand new component. Sony, for its part,claimsthat this OnePlus 12 camera component will be a “jointly developed” high-end sensor.
Previous leaks and rumours have suggested that the OnePlus 12 will featuresweeping improvementsto its camera system, led by a new 50MP Sony IMX 9xx main image sensor.
We’re also expecting an improved telephoto camera that goes beyond the puny 2x zoom range of the OnePlus 11, with a 64-megapixel 3x unit tipped. We should also get another solid 50MP ultra-wide.
Expect all to be revealed in December, when the OnePlus 12 is expected to be announced in its native China.
