- HUAWEI’s Mate 90 Pro Max will apparently have a special edition model that supports an external camera.
- This external camera attaches to the back of the phone and supports native 1x to 10x zoom.
- By contrast, external lenses seen on other phones don’t have their own camera sensors and offer one native zoom level.
We’ve seen a trend of smartphones with external lenses in the past 18 months. These telephoto extender lenses attach to a phone’s telephoto camera and boost the native zoom range. However, it sounds like HUAWEI could put these lenses to shame with the upcoming Mate 90 series.
Leakers Digital Chat Station and Ice Universe have revealed that the HUAWEI Mate 90 Pro Max will have a special edition variant that supports an external DSLR-style camera add-on. Digital Chat Station posted an image of the external camera, seen at the top of the page. Ice Universe also shared an apparent hands-on video clip, albeit without crediting the original poster.
