LG G4 will have the widest smartphone camera aperture yet

Bouzoo · April 10, 2015

G Innotek, LG's component manufacturing arm, announced the development of a new 16 MP camera module that has an f/1.8 aperture, making it the widest smartphone aperture on the market right now. (The Galaxy S6's camera comes close with an f/1.9 aperture). The new camera module began mass production this week, and it will appear for the first time on the market inside the LG G4, LG's upcoming flagship smartphone.

Heyyo,

Could be interesting! 16 MP with an f/1.8 aperture worked great on the Galaxy S6.. giving it a wider camera angle will potentially give this camera a little edge as long as the post-processing and noise is under control (which HTC seems to be slowly working on with the One M9...).

It would also be nice if LG kept the OIS... Dunno why HTC removed it in the One M8 and same with the One M9... they just keep shooting themselves in the foot with their phone cameras. HTC's achilles heel.
