mysterious part this smartphone. HTC has called this Duo Camera. It has got 4
MP of rear camera with 2 micron sized pixels, 1/3” sensors and 2nd rear camera
is used to gather depth information. These two independent lenses at the back side
are able to calculate relative distance of a subject in a single image. Even
