In 2019, Huawei P30 Pro debuted a periscope telephoto camera, which can achieve up to dozens of times zoom, which can be used to shoot the moon, and frequently appear on hot searches for a while, and its freshness makes many users give praise. The subsequent 2020 can be said to be the hottest year for periscope telephoto cameras, and almost all top flagship machines have this function, even the mid-range Honor 30 is no exception, which also has a periscope telephoto.
But in 2021, the probability of periscope telephoto lenses appearing on mobile phones is relatively small, in addition to a few large cups and oversized cup flagships, other mobile phones do not have the function of periscope telephoto cameras, such as OPPO Find X3 Pro, Honor 50, Xiaomi 11 Youth Edition and many other mobile phones, are only retained ordinary telephoto cameras, or directly cut off telephoto cameras.
And according to the previous exposure, in 2022, the mobile phone of the periscope telephoto camera will become less, so that many friends think that the mobile phone of the periscope telephoto camera has been eliminated. For example, on the Xiaomi Mi 12 Pro just released, the periscope telephoto camera on the 2021 Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro was cut, which is very unfriendly for users who like periscope telephoto cameras.
However, recently there is news that the periscope telephoto camera has not been eliminated, in the upcoming 2022, vivo and xiaomi mobile phone manufacturers still have several periscope telephoto camera flagship mobile phones are about to be released. According to the previous market practice, these mobile phones are likely to be vivo X80 series of super cup models, iQOO 9 series of super cup models, and Xiaomi 12 series of super cup models, after all, the photos of these mobile phones have always been their selling point.
The issue of periscope telephoto camera retention has always been highly controversial. The biggest problem with this camera is that the volume is really large, after all, it requires a lot of complex prisms, and compared to the ordinary telephoto of 2X and 3X, the probability of use of periscope telephoto cameras is relatively low. However, the periscope telephoto camera is a very important function when needed. Several flagship models of vivo and xiaomi retain this feature, which can also be regarded as giving consumers more choices.
As for the release time, these products may require a longer research and development cycle because they are all stacked flagships of oversized cups, and it is likely to wait until after the Spring Festival in 2022. However, the good goods are not afraid of the late release of the time, to polish more time, like the periscope telephoto camera friends, when the time comes, you can pay attention to these models.
