Dual-LED smartphone flashes are ubiquitous, and triple-LED ones are also fairly popular. That is, to the extent the Lumia 950 and 950 XL, and also the Lenovo Vibe Shot, are popular.
How about 10 LEDs, though. That's how many of those the upcoming Meizu Pro 6 will have, if the latest rumor turns out to be true. A photo of the future flagship that was officially released the other day (the one below) does indeed show a ring around the laser autofocusing window - a ring, which was obviously going to house the flash, as there isn't one to be found anywhere else.
But 10 LEDs? The Pro 6 is going to be a large device, that's for sure (rumors have settled on a 5.7-inch display), which could mean that the ring is large enough to fit all those diodes. "But why?" you may ask, and we'd be inclined to agree. Then again, a little (well, potentially a lot) extra light could very well take our club photography up a notch, so we're starting to warm up to the idea.
We won't get much time to dwell on it, though - the Meizu Pro 6 gets announced in 4 days.
wow how creative they are! just like Apple change the display to OLED, they are so clever and creative! it must be the best phone in the weird.
All well and good, I like the symmetry this keeps but wouldn't it be better around the lens as ring flashes are in high-end cameras? The idea is you don't end up with directional lighting in relation to the lens... Also most LEDs get quite warm, coul...
