ZTE is working on a smartphone with 32-megapixel selfie camera: Report

A number of smartphone makers across the globe are currently working on selfie-centric smartphones. Most of these smartphones either come with a higher megapixel count font camera along with a number of software-based features including AR stickers. Some device makers have also gone ahead to add a secondary camera sensor on the front of the device in the quest to provide devices with good selfie cameras. A majority of companies that have opted for higher megapixel count have gone up to the 25-megapixel camera sensor.

ZTE is likely to add pixel-binning technology in the software to make use of the high megapixel count. As part of the technology, the software will take data from four adjacent pixels and then combine it to get a superpixel with improved color rendering, clarity, and lower noise. This technology is used to improve the quality of images taken in low light.
