These smartphone brands will use Samsung’s dual camera modules

NEW DELHI: We already have seen few smartphones sporting dual cameras such as the Huawei P9, LG G5, HTC One M8 and more. Now it looks like that the upcoming smartphones of future Xiaomi, Oppo and LeEco too will feature dual-camera set-up. According to a report in Korean Herald website, quoting sources, Samsung Electro Mechanics will be supplying these modules to theses handset makers.
"Samsung Electro Mechanics will offer a true dual camera to the market in the second half of 2016," told the website. The Samsung official, however, refused to name the handset vendors the company will be making the camera modules for.

Although Xiaomi declined to comment anything on the matter, the report said that the upcoming successor of the company's flagship Mi 5, Mi5s, will sport dual-camera module. The smartphone is expected to launch in second half of this year. It is worth mentioning that Samsung already provides single-camera module to Xiaomi.
The reports regarding Oppo using the dual-camera module too seem valid as the smartphone maker is known for its camera-focused devices. Oppo in March launched its R9 and R9 Plus smartphones both of which feature a 16MP front-facing cameras and 13MP rear cameras. The company was also the first one to launch a smartphone with rotating camera.

In India, some of the camera smartphones that one can buy under Rs 15,000 include Zuk Z1, LeEco 1S Eco, Micromax Canvas 6, LG K10, HTC Desire 626, Huawei Honor 5X and more.
Samsung seems to be gaining the smartphone camera market share steadily, giving tough competition to Sony. As per the firm, until February this year, its main Exmor, Exmor R, and RS cameras captured a total share of 35% in the smartphone market. It also had 70% share in sports-cam market.
