The device will recycle the Z40 Pro’s camera setup which includes a 64MP Sony IMX787 primary sensor with a 35mm equivalent lens and OIS, a 50MP ultrawide module that doubles as a macro cam and also has OIS and an 8MP 125mm equivalent periscope module with 5x optical zoom.

The new bit on the Z40S Pro is the sliding shortcut key that will automatically switch to a “street photography mode”. It remains to be seen if the key will be remappable. The battery on the new phone is confirmed at 5,000 mAh.
