According to the popular Chinese handset maker, the Sony IMX709 RGBW camera lets users to capture crisp, clear and evenly-exposed photos, as per the company. With Oppo’s Quadra Binning algorithm, two W pixels are added to each R, G, and B pixel so that the sensor can detect red, green, blue, and white signals. This boosts light intake without reducing colour information, improves cross-platform compatibility and image processing efficiency.

The company said Oppo’s imaging R&D team designed the IMX709 using the 22nm process to consume lesser power than any other flagship front camera image sensor.
Oppo further said the F21 Pro also houses an advanced AI Portrait Enhancement feature that is a solution to the problems that customers face in front and rear portrait shooting.
