Meet the Up Snap!
Along with the Knight X, Starmobile also announced their Up Snap earlier today. The Up Snap is the first locally branded smartphone to use Ultrapixel camera technology – yes, the same technology that’s present in HTC’s One M8. Essentially, the Up Snap fits larger pixels in the same area as a regular sensor, which theoretically gives the Up Snap superior low-light performance compared to other smartphones.
