Dreame entering the smartphone market<\/a> (and smart rings<\/a> and action cameras<\/a> and even electric vehicles<\/a>) was a bit of a surprise. But our initial surprise is now replaced with a wide-eyed stare \u2013 the company has built a series of luxury smartphones that would make Vertu blush. And then there\u2019s the other series with a detachable camera with a 1\u201d sensor.<\/p>\n

Starting with the phones that you can (probably) afford, these will have a detachable camera module that houses a 1\u201d sensor and a Wi-Fi connection so that it can operate remotely. This is similar to Sony\u2019s lens-style cameras<\/a> and differs from more recent attempts at detachable cameras since the module can work wirelessly. This will give you more flexibility when framing your shot and might even let you shoot A and B roll with just your phone.<\/p>\n

Dreame Aurora luxury phones<\/p>\n

And then there\u2019s the luxury series, which will feature jewels and gold inlays and will be built with traditional techniques. These phones will cost in the CNY 70,000-100,000 range ($10,000-$15,000) depending on the precious materials and the number of hand-crafted elements.<\/p>\n

Seriously, one of these has a clock on the back! Take that, Ulysse Nardin<\/a>. Of course, that\u2019s just one of many, many possible designs.<\/p>\n

Oh, and Dreame designed an in-house AI chip called Chixiao 01 because of course it did. The chip is quite impressive, promising 200 TOPS of compute power \u2013 for comparison, the Snapdragon X2 Elite does 80 TOPS<\/a>. This chip will be used on both the luxury and the camera phone series.<\/p>\n
