Vlad Savov reflects on the new trend that both LG and Huawei have established with their new dual-camera systems. Since smartphones are are thinner and thinner and the integration of better sensors and lenses is becoming quite complex, it seems the solution is to combine (at least) two of them.

Interesting, don’t you think?
