    Wouldn't the dark lens opposite the flash be a rangefinder? My lg g5 had one alongside the main lens, would make sense for one here as well.

    Wouldn't having many smaller sensors for the different focal lengths make for worse image quality?

    They do try and use a mono sensor to help with things,since it should be in theory more sensitive than one with a Bayer array over the top,but since phone companies are obsessed with thinness,it means they cannot put larger sensors as it will mean a thicker phones....how convenient.

    I will only be happy when the sheer number of cameras means a system can be described as anisotropic. Or something.

    Mobile phone manufacturers are desperately scraping the bottom of the ideas barrel now.
