There have been rumors for some time that Sony has been developing a 200MP image sensor for camera phones. Well, those rumors have now been proved true. Sony has unveiled its Lytia LYT-901 sensor: a 200MP, 1/1.12-inch chip aimed squarely at Samsung's 200MP ISOCELL HP1, HP2 and HP3 sensors.
Some might say Sony is over four years late to the 200MP party with this sensor. The first 200MP camera phone sensor - the Samsung ISOCELL HP1 - was released back in September 2021.
