This new technology is a huge leap from most cameras on smartphones, which typically offer two times optical zoom. At the Mobile World Congress 2017, Oppo introduced the new 5x Dual-Camera zoom tech, which claims to be the world’s first periscope-style dual-camera technology for smartphones. OPPO worked for almost a year to develop the periscope-styled dual-camera technology. The dual camera utilizes wide-angle and telephoto lenses, and the housing for the telephoto lens uses a periscope-style structure. By shifting the angle of the telephoto lens by 90 degrees, the lens will have the space it needs for a deep zoom.
