While not much is known in regards to which smartphones will come equipped with the new lens, it does give us a better idea on how the smartphones could look like in the future.

As for how it functions, the Metalenz’s technology function by using a single lens that’s built on a glass wafer up to 3x3 millimetre in size with nanostructures that are designed to bend light onto the sensor. As of now, it seems that Metalenz is currently working with a smartphone partner which will most likely unveil a device equipped with the new lens technology in the near future.
