Realme Demonstrates Interchangeable-Lens Concept

The company believes the technology can enable users to capture professional-grade images with their handsets.
The interchangeable-lens concept is a prototype device that features a 1-inch customized Sony Sensor Paired with a Propriatary lens Mountain System. This system can be attached to a compatible smartphone’s camera module, and the software will use the mounted lens as the primary camera.

The company claimed these lens mounts will allow users to click a wide range of photos, Including Professional Bokeh Shots and Lossless 10x Zoom.
