Furthermore, the X80 Pro also features an under-display fingerprint sensor that is 38 percent larger than its predecessor, the x70. Cameras-wise, it supports laser autofocus, Pixel Shift technology and optical image stabilisation (OIS).
At its rear, there’s a quad-camera setup with a 50MP ISOCELL GNV 1/1.3” primary sensor, a 48MP Sony IMX598 ultra-wide, a 2x zoom 12MP Sony IMX663 1/2” telephoto and a 5x 8MP periscope. At its front, the X80 Pro rocks a 32MP selfie camera.
