Yesterday afternoon, Huawei Consumer Business Group CEO Richard Yu stated on Weibo (the Chinese Twitter) that a 100MP image sensor is unable to create images of the same quality as a smaller resolution sensor but with larger pixels. Adding that even if 100 megapixels are used to synthesize large pixels by combining multiple small pixels (Tetracell technology), there are still gaps and loss of detail during the process.
Xiaomi and Huawei always in discord: Better 100MP or 50MP cameras?
Richard Yu
As always, the words of the Huawei executive did not go unnoticed by those in the sector and caught the provocation of Richard Yu. In particular, we refer to the fact that Xiaomi has chosen the path of high resolution (100MP) with its latest high-end devices such as the Xiaomi Mi 10 and Mi Note 10. Unlike Huawei which instead reaches a maximum of 50MP with the P40.
So here in response to the statement by the Huawei executive comes the statement from Redmi's product manager, Wang Teng. In fact, Teng said that:
The sales of the Mi 10 series are really good. Sales of 5G products from e-commerce platforms are in first place, surpassing the Huawei P40 series. Many users finally chose the Mi 10 when they could choose between P40 and Mi 10. The nervousness of our friends is understandable.
The biggest advantage of 100 megapixels is the high resolution. Users take multiple photos outdoors and 100 million pixels can record more detail. This is the advantage that friends have always ignored and the reason why millions of users choose Xiaomi.
The user experience should be given a lot of importance and it is better to provide users with a better screen and camera.

In summary, as we all know there seem to be two schools of thought regarding the cameras on board smartphones. There are those who like Xiaomi and Samsung focuses on resolution and those who like Huawei instead seem interested in sensors with fewer total pixels but larger dimensions.
