The Sony LYT-838 camera sensor has a size of 1/1.28 inch and supports 50 million pixels. It is Sony’s first mobile CMOS sensor that supports LOFIC high dynamic technology. As Sony’s first mobile CMOS to support LOFIC technology, the LYT-838 has a 1/1.28-inch outsole and 50 million pixels. In addition, the LYT-838 also has a 1/1.28-inch outsole and 50 million pixels. Combined with LOFIC technology, it has a significant effect in improving native high dynamic range. Compared to the previous LYT-818 and 828, LYT-838 is undoubtedly an important upgrade.
The LYT-838 features a 1/1.28-inch outsole with 50 million pixels. Compared to the previous generation LYT-828, it supports LOFIC high dynamic technology and is also Sony’s first mobile CMOS sensor to support LOFIC. It is expected to be launched by a new OPPO or vivo model.
As an iteration of the LYT-828, the LYT-838 comes with a 1/1.28-inch outsole and 50 million pixels, and its core killer feature is Sony’s first mobile LOFIC technology. What is the strength of this technology? Simply put, it is to install a “charge reservoir” on the sensor, which directly stores excess light charges in high light scenes without relying on multi frame synthesis to make up HDR. There will no longer be dragging or ghosting when shooting moving objects, and the dynamic range is much stronger than old technology.
For example, in the past, when shooting backlit portraits, either the face was black or the background was overexposed. With LYT-838, the face of the character was clear, and the details of the sky and clouds were still present, allowing for a single frame to be captured. Moreover, its threshold is not high, and it is expected to be used in the flagship phones of OPPO, vivo, Xiaomi, and Honor in 2026. It is a standard mid to high end device, and next year, you can easily choose a phone with good picture quality.
