Realme has just presented its most recent innovation, a Solid State Camera Control button for smartphones that enables users to click photos easily by holding grip securely. Not unlike the Camera Control button Apple added to the iPhone 16 models back in January. Here are the details.
Realme Coming Up with the Solid State Camera Control Button and 320W Charging
The button will be present in future Realme smartphones as a specific hardware key, which is said to exist on the body of the phone like we see the shutter for traditional camera lines. This new button provides focus, exposure, and other fine control over photography functions, effectively elevating mobile photography opportunities.
According to a teaser image shared by Realme, the button will work for zooming in and out, offering an intuitive control function that would integrate with all the features of the camera app. Whether this new button will make it onto the Realme GT 7 Pro is still speculation at this stage, with no specific smartphone mentioned in the announcement.
The iPhone 16 Series from Apple also launched a Camera Control key, making it convenient for users to adjust focus and zoom levels, etc. The feature has quickly gained traction among iPhone users for its ease of use, providing better access to camera settings without relying on on-screen controls.
This essentially makes Realme one of the first Android manufacturers to embrace a standalone camera button. The brand has a track record of introducing cutting-edge features, having previously introduced the Mini Capsule, which mirrors Apple’s Dynamic Island. Realme has also introduced its 320W SuperSonic charging, in addition to the camera button.
Particularly, the technology that can fill a smartphone in only 4 minutes and 30 seconds, setting a new benchmark for charging speeds globally, although the model featuring it has not yet been revealed. The brand also showcased other innovations, including the world’s first anti-reflective smartphone display, AI Motion Picture technology, and enhanced 4D Game Vibration technologies.
