Having too many pixels means that images have to be heavily processed and the results can also be noisy. The HTC One will have a rear-camera with 4-megapixels, which may look like a step backwards, but the firm claims this will allow it to take better pictures.Īs smartphone sensors are tiny, and can lead to poor image quality as they struggle to compete for light. Instead of packing in as many megapixels as possible into its camera, like Nokia has done with its PureView technology (41-megapixels), the firm has cut back on the pixels. HTC has gone back to the drawing board in terms of the camera. Meanwhile, the Windows Phone OS aims to keep users up-to-date through its constantly refreshing home screen Live Tiles, which can be customised. The BB software has a constantly changing homescreen that shows the latest apps you were using and integrates messages from all platforms into its BlackBerry Hub. The system is similar to the approach adopted by the BB10 and Window Phone platforms. So, for example, social media, photo and news updates will be pushed through and users will no longer need to open up individual apps. This will provide a live stream of information relevant to each user. HTC BlinkFeed aims to revamp the way the homescreen is used on the Sense interface.
