It will have an increased sensor size of 1/1.33-inch but will come with a 0.8-micrometre (μm) size, same as its 64MP predecessor.

Mi Mix Alpha’s 108MP camera will also use the new Smart ISO technology to switch to a lower ISO in well-lit environments or to a higher ISO in darker conditions with a reduced level of noise.
