In January 2019, the Chinese mobile maker Oppo announced 10x hybrid optical zoom feature. Oppo is planning to launch this technology across the world and would even disclose the smartphone that will have the technology on February 23 at the Oppo Innovation Event. Now, the Vice President of Oppo, Brian Shen shared a video on the leading website and Twitter showing the technology.

Oppo has rolled up its sleeves to launch the new phone, named as the Find Z at MWC 2019 which is going to be held in Barcelona this week. As per the speculations, the smartphone might come with the 10x hybrid optical zoom feature. Because of this feature, the user can see the object closer with clarity without losing its details. This feature depends on an angular prism, which bends the light at 90 degrees and then supports the optical on a sensor which is positioned on the side. At MWC 2017, Oppo used the almost same technology to get 5x hybrid optical zoom but this feature was never developed.
Another first. 👀
