And to add to what the OP said, QVGA resolution is a 320x240 resolution. The screen resolution you will find on most landscaped screens of some Java phones like the Nokia Asha 200, Nokia X2-02 etc.

I'm very sorry for bringing Tecno into this, but I have to say it.

Does it mean Tecno is taking us back to the Java days with the introduction of a dedicated QVGA lens on the Spark 5?Yes they are.

But to a tech-illiterate Nigerian, it will be seen as something posh or subject to boast of like "My phone get QVGA camera" not knowing that the acclaimed "posh QVGA lens" would be better if it wasnt there and his ignorance is being exploited by Tecno etc.

Na people wey dey find quad camera na.

Infinix tried to cut production costs by using a cheap 720P IPS LCD yet they still priced it very high.

Mi A3 uses a 720P display to save costs as well but in exchanging Xiaomi used an Amoled screen that supports in display finger print and still priced the phone very affordably.

Haha
na QVGA my phone dey use o

this life no balance, transsion don scam me

To understand what QVGA means, first let's look at resolution.

In technical terms, The graphics display resolution is the width and height dimension of an electronic visual display device, such as a computer monitor, in pixels (Wikipedia)

In simple terms, it is how clear or bright an image is.

A general overview of the types of resolutions currently

240P

480P (Standard Definition)

720P (High Definition)

1080P (Full High Definition)

1440P (Quad High Definition)

2K

4k

There are more subdivisions of resolution types but these are the most commonly used.

The sharpest today is 4K. The latest gaming consoles offer 4K resolution. Newer Televisions offer 4K resolution too. The usual standard for most midrange phones display is 1080P or full high definition. The cheaper budget devices use 720P.

Then most cameras on Smartphones boast of recording 1080P resoultion at 30fps (frames per second). Some even boast of going as high as 2k.

A QVGA (quarter video graphics array) camera is a dedicated video camera that can only shoot at 240P resolution.

The resolution it shoots at is very poor and pixelated. The QVGA format has been abandoned for 720P long ago. In fact very few smartphone makers include them on their devices except a few.

So if you have a QVGA camera. It is nothing to be proud of. QVGA format had it's heyday in the 1980s before it was superseded by Standard Definition. In the old java phone of the late 90s and early 00s. QVGA was also used as the display resolution.

Can QVGA still be found today? Well yes some phone companies stil offer dedicated QVGA sensors like Transsion holdings. (Tecno and Infinix).

KrazyDave16:
