Chinese OEMs Xiaomi & LeEco Rumored To Be Interested In Dual Cameras

The dual camera smartphone design has exactly caught on. We've seen some OEMs such as HTC attempt to create such a design, but like we said, it hasn't exactly caught on because we're not exactly seeing other smartphone makers rush out to include similar features in their handsets, but it seems that more companies are starting to warm up to the idea.

According to the latest rumors, both Xiaomi and LeEco are said to be interested in dual camera designs, so much so that they will be purchasing the components from a division of Samsung's that makes the dual camera modules. However this isn't where it ends as Samsung is also said to be supplying Oppo with similar modules.

Interestingly enough while Samsung is said to be creating and supplying these dual camera modules to other OEMs, the company has yet to implement such a design in their own smartphones. So far Samsung's smartphone cameras have yielded pretty good results, so maybe that's why they haven't really seen the need for a dual camera setup.

In the meantime, there are also rumors that Apple could be going with a similar design with the iPhone 7 Plus. The rumors claim that there could be a special variant of the iPhone 7 Plus that will feature the dual camera modules, but it should probably be taken with a grain of salt for now.
