Imminent availability of smartphone with genuine (not hybrid) 10x telephoto
(All About Windows Phone)

From a background of modest 2.5x zoom with the Nokia 808 and Lumia 1020 through to the insane super-bulky Samsung Galaxy K Zoom to the hybrid periscope systems of today (Huawei P30/P40 Pro, OPPO Find X2, etc.), zooming into far off things - or just getting closer to modestly far off things - has been a long time goal in the phone camera world. And Huawei announced its P40 Pro+ (yes, those names...) a while back swapping the hybrid zoom out for a genuine 240mm equivalent 10x zoom system, involving five (count `em) internal reflections. This P40 Pro+ is now imminent - at least in China. No doubt Europe will see this in due course and, of course, I`ll try and get a review/comparison model.
