The old 8MP sensor was updated to a 12MP sensor with 1.22-micron pixels, while the lens is now 5-element piece with an aperture of f/2.2. The iPhone 6s series can shoot 30fpsvideos at a resolution of 4K (3840 x 2160 pixels). On top of that, it also supports 1080p video capture at 120fps, or 720p capture at 240fps, frame rates that allow for some radical slow-motion effects.

2. Sony Xperia Z5 Premium

The flagship smartphone Sony Xperia Z5 Premium comes with new 23MP 1/2.3" Exmor RS sensors. Furthermore, it also comes with hardware OIS system that Sony markets as the SteadyShot Intelligent Active Mode, as well as blazing-fast hybrid autofocus system.
