Honor’s V30 series featured a Matrix Camera technology for systemic imaging technology framework through software and hardware collaboration. In simpler terms, the handset was well optimized with capable hardware and well programmed algorithm software which helped it achieve an industry leading score. The camera module sports the customized Sony IMX600 RYYB 40-megapixel sensor with f/1.8 aperture as the main lens, an 8-megapixel telephoto sensor with f/2.4 aperture and a 12-megapixel cine lens with f/2.2 aperture with 109-degree field-of-view.
Notably, Xiong Junmin, the Vice President of Honor, took the scores as an opportunity to claim that higher pixel count doesn’t translate to better images but a combination of optics, sensors, chips, algorithms, and more do, something that have also been backed up by the ratings. This was shared on the senior executives official Weibo account, a Chinese microblogging website.
