  • A new leaked image shows a Nokia smartphone with five rear
    camera lenses.
  • This is the same design that appeared in sketches of a Nokia
    device that leaked earlier this year. 
  • The five lenses would reportedly play different roles, like
    telephoto, black and white, and color. 

A new smartphone from Nokia may be taking the dual smartphone
camera trend one step further. 

The phone, which appears in a new leaked photo, has five camera lenses
on the back of the device. This is the same design that appeared
in sketches of a Nokia phone leaked
earlier this year.

It’s not clear why a smartphone would need five camera lenses,
but The Next Web reports
that the lenses would each have a distinct role, like
telephoto, black and white, color, and something it calls
“multi-lens pixel synthesis.” The phone also has what appears to
be a flash and some sort of focusing
apparatus.  

According to IT Home, the Chinese site that leaked the image, the
device is likely the Nokia 9 or Nokia 10. The phone has both
Nokia and Zeiss branding, but there’s a good reason for that:
as The Verge explains, HMD
Global — a Finnish company that now produces Nokia phones —
started working with Zeiss in 2017 to put its camera lenses on
Nokia phones. 

HMD Global isn’t the only company seemingly working on a
futuristic multi-lens smartphone. Light, a startup known
for its 16-lens camera, reportedly
plans to unveil a smartphone with up to nine
lenses
later this year.
