I attended this year’s Mobile World Congress 2016 in Barcelona and one of the biggest trends across almost all smartphone manufacturers was a “doubling down” on photography. VR may have been a hot topic at the show and took most airtime with the introduction of handsets, headsets and new VR cameras, but any serious-minded attendees searching for technology advancement occurring at any scale, could see that a lot is happening in camera and imaging technology and its helping redefine photography for smartphones. While on prior trips to Barcelona, we saw competitors attempting to up their game by improving imaging sensors year after year, creating small incremental improvements, this year proved to be one where OEMs started moving beyond the sensor and began to innovate throughout the entire camera pipeline, taking a more holistic view of imaging and in the process, beginning to make much larger strides in smartphone imaging quality.
