Dreame shows off $15K luxury phones, teases detachable camera module with 1" sensor

"Starting with the phones that you can (probably) afford, these will have a detachable camera module that houses a 1 sensor and a Wi-Fi connection so that it can operate remotely. This is similar to Sony's lens-style cameras 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."

"The luxury series 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. Seriously, one of these has a clock on the back!"

"Dreame designed an in-house AI chip called Chixiao 01. The chip is quite impressive, promising 200 TOPS of compute power—for comparison, the Snapdragon X2 Elite does 80 TOPS. This chip will be used on both the luxury and the camera phone series."

Dreame has entered the smartphone market with two distinct product lines. The first features detachable camera modules housing 1-inch sensors with Wi-Fi connectivity for remote operation, offering flexibility in shot composition and simultaneous A and B roll recording. The second line comprises luxury smartphones incorporating jewels, gold inlays, and traditional handcrafted techniques, priced between CNY 70,000-100,000 ($10,000-$15,000). These premium devices include distinctive features like back-mounted clocks. Both lines utilize Dreame's proprietary Chixiao 01 AI chip, delivering 200 TOPS of computational power—significantly exceeding the Snapdragon X2 Elite's 80 TOPS.
