12MP HTC Windows Phone Spotted Running Mango, Bresson Faces Identity Crisis


Earlier this morning, Slashgear received photos of a new HTC Windows Phone that appears to be rocking a 12MP camera sensor. The shots don't show much of the device except for the front (looks like a duplicate to the Trophy from where we're sitting), but the area to pay real attention to is the camera interface which is including several more settings for the hardcore photographers in the crowd. The simple fact that you can take RAW photos is incredible and such a feature isn't even found among the highest-end Android devices. Another thing we noticed was the new 'Save Settings' option which is good to see, but if you read our hands-on with the Mango emulator you know that Mango may already save those settings by default. And yes, this phone is definitely running Mango because as you can see in the bottom left corner there is a new arrow button to jump to previously taken photos and is also present in the emulator.


There is a little confusion around this sighting as well. If you recall, the HTC Bresson looks to be the reigning king of photography among HTC's lineup and yet here we are with an HTC device sporting a lower (but still high) resolution. Some speculation suggests HTC may have swapped out the higher-res sensor for the 12MP one, or that this is an entirely new device.

Our theory? This actually is the Bresson. In case you didn't know, you can set your phone to take photos at different resolutions. For example, the Samsung Focus by default takes 5MP photos, but it can also take 3MP, 2MP, and even VGA resolution shots as well.  In our opinion, these photos are of the Bresson and they are showing a reduced resolution option of 12MP instead of the max 16MP.

What do you think? Is this a 12MP or 16MP HTC superphone? And do you even care?
