8K Video Snap changes how you capture photos and video

8K VIDEO

Now the highest resolution video on a smartphone

We've revolutionised the resolution for mobile video—taking it from 4K all the way to 8K. That's 4 times bigger than UHD and 16 times bigger than FHD. That's right, moving images that keep their super-sharp resolution even at the size of a cinema screen.

As you scroll, the video interface appears and scrubs the video timeline until we see the man falling into the water and appearing to step on the water’s surface. The 8K video snap icon appears and is tapped, capturing a still of that moment

8K VIDEO SNAP

You can even pull 33MP stills right out of 8K video

It's a whole new way to capture still photography every time you hit record. 8K video turns every frame into a crisp still that you can pinch in on for once-in-a-lifetime shots.

SINGLE TAKE

A whole new way to take one shot and turn it into multiple formats

Single Take is essentially burst mode turned beast mode. With revolutionary AI, it lets you shoot for up to 10 seconds and get back a variety of formats — meaning you can choose the best style for the moment without having to reshoot.5

Select Single Take mode in the camera and tap the shutter. Move around for at least 3 seconds and up to 10 seconds to capture the whole scene.
