That may sound like a downgrade, however apparently the corporate is changing the 3x and 10x lenses with a variable zoom lens that may transfer all the way in which from 3x to 10x.

That presumably means it should additionally be capable of optically zoom to ranges between 3x and 10x, resembling 5x. On the present mannequin, if you wish to zoom to an in-between stage it’s important to make use of digital zoom.

In truth, only a few telephones have variable optical zoom. The Sony Xperia 1 IV does, however solely between 3.5x and 5.2x.
