We have seen a fair share of leaks and rumors about the upcoming Bluboo Dual in the past days and weeks, but that ends today. Because we have finally in hand the official release specifications so we know exactly what’s this dual camera phone packing. And get ready for at least one disappointment.
But for starters let’s take a look at the metal unibody from brushed aircraft grade aluminum alloy, nothing to complain about here at all, looks are spot on. And with a Dual name you need to have dual cameras, but ehm we probably hoped for something better than 13 Mpix primary one with Sony IMX135 sensor paired with 2 Mpix subsidiary one. In theory the primary camera captures the image and the secondary captures the depth information. Dual LED flash is a bonus and f/2.0 aperture sounds good too, but i can’t help it to be really expecting something more. Front single camera is then 5 Mpix sensor wide angle lens interpolated to 8 Mpix.
