With over 1.43 trillion photos taken in 2020, more than 90% of these were taken on mobile phones, with smartphone cameras becoming even more powerful every year. Visual storytelling has become a currency for many, and the capability of smartphone cameras has evolved greatly over the past decade, allowing users to more easily capture better quality images. Nowadays, users have become knowledgeable enough to consider many factors when evaluating a smartphone camera, including the number of camera lenses, light capture, resolution and megapixels that will satisfy the photographer in them. A recent Corning Gorilla Glass survey for TRUE Global Intelligence provides in-depth insights into how Indians use their smartphone cameras, what their preferences are, and more. The survey covered 1,000+ consumers from across India.
The survey revealed some interesting observations, for example, 94% of Indians believe that the number of camera lenses on a smartphone affects the quality of photos. It has become clear that more than the price of the device, smartphone cameras have also become an important factor in a customer’s buying decision, with 42% of users saying that they thought about how good the camera in a new phone is before buying it.
As per the findings, 63% of Indian consumers felt that a triple-camera module is required for optimum picture quality. It has also emerged that the most important features of smartphone camera lenses for consumers are image clarity, light capture and drop resistance.
Additionally, the survey showed that 70% of consumers wanted cameras with higher megapixel counts, 66% wanted cameras with HDR support, and 65% preferred a better zoom range over their smartphone cameras. It’s easy to overlook the fact that components like the camera lens cover can affect the light captured by your smartphone. The Camera Lens Cover developed by Corning Gorilla Glass is the ideal solution, which helps protect the camera lens on a smartphone from damage, provides anti-reflection capability, and helps capture more light.
Corning Gorilla Glass with DX/DX+ is well-equipped to meet the expectations of the evolving Indian consumer and encourage them to develop their love for photography to the fullest. The DX portfolio allows up to 99% of light to pass through the camera lens, furthermore providing the best combination of the industry’s advanced optical performance and superior scratch resistance as well as the legendary toughness of Gorilla Glass.
