TECNO has unveiled its latest camera innovations at Future Lens 2025 in Chongqing, China, showcasing the next generation of mobile imaging. The event highlighted two major breakthroughs aimed at redefining smartphone photography.

The first, Dual-Mirror Reflect Telephoto, uses a coaxial dual-mirror optical design to shrink the telephoto module by nearly 50%, promising slimmer camera bumps without sacrificing image quality. It delivers high-quality zoom, strong low-light performance, and a distinctive bokeh effect.

The second, Freeform Continuum Telephoto, introduces smooth continuous optical zoom from 1× to 9×, eliminating lens-switching jumps and maintaining sharpness and color consistency throughout. This system is currently in development but hints at a future where smartphones could rival dedicated cameras in zoom performance.

Both systems are integrated with TECNO’s Image Matrix (TIM), combining advanced optics with AI-driven processing. TIM, along with Universal Tone, aims to enhance color accuracy, realistic skin tones, and scene understanding in diverse lighting conditions.

TECNO also unveiled a new automated imaging lab for standardized testing, ensuring that future devices deliver consistent, high-quality results. While these technologies are not yet commercialized, they showcase TECNO’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of smartphone photography.
