With the Power of All Day Clarity realme 9 4G Delivers Superior Photographic Results

      

Housing a powerful 108MP camera module and HM6 sensor the realme 9 4G is well equipped for a photographer’s needs

 

Technology is evolving at a rapid pace, improving upon itself in a continuous manner. With the advent of new technologies, the limits of the human imagination have been stretched allowing us to perform more complex tasks with ease and expanding the possibilities for creative expression. One such invention that has become a focus for smartphone companies in recent years in terms of development is the camera. Smartphones are always at the palm of your hand, allowing you to capture images in more spontaneous situations, and have replaced traditional cameras as the tool of choice for the average photography enthusiast.

 

realme understands the importance of a good camera module in the eyes of consumers as a factor affecting the smartphone that they choose to buy which is why the tech democratizer always puts in effort to deliver superior camera modules at an affordable price. The realme 9 4G is no exception as realme has delivered another incredible 108MP primary camera module but what sets it apart from the realme 8 Pro’s similar module is the inclusion of the first-ever Samsung HM6 sensor which greatly enhances the final photo.

When compared to the previous generation’s Samsung HM2 sensor, the realme 9 4G’s HM6 sensor provides a whopping 123% increase in light sensitivity. This improvement has incredible implications for the quality of your photos as an increased light sensitivity means that the realme 9 4G’s camera module requires less light intake to take a high quality photo. This is greatly beneficial in low-light indoor settings, nighttime photography, monochrome photography, among many other styles of photography. You need not worry about loss of detail when taking zoomed in photos using the realme 9 4G as the sensor’s 3x lossless zoom ensures that your final image is clear and high quality.

 

One of the reasons that the realme 9 4G is able to capture pictures in such flawless quality is due to the HM6 sensor’s 108 million pixels, which are as small as 0.64μm, that allow for more information to be stored in your final picture leading to a highly-detailed final product. For motion photography enthusiasts, the realme 9 4G has a high autofocus pixel density which allows you to capture fast-moving objects without compromising on the quality of the image. Capturing videos is also a breeze as the ISOCELL HM6 sensor is capable of recording at 8K 24FPS and 4K 120FPS, allowing you to capture high quality videos in regular speed and in slow motion.

Technology will continue to evolve as mankind strives to expand its capabilities and realme will be right there to bring the cutting edge technology to the masses at an affordable price. The realme 9 4G’s superior camera module is just one example of realme’s commitment to tech democratization. The realme 9 4G also comes equipped with 8GB RAM, 128GB ROM, 33W dart charging, massive 5000mAh battery, 90Hz super AMOLED display, FHD+ resolution, Snapdragon 680 processor, and much more so get your very own today.

YouTube Partner Program paves new methods for content creators to earn revenue on the platform

        Today YouTube announced the expansion of its monetisation system with YouTube Partner Program (YPP). YouTube shared that it is expanding the platform’s monetization system to allow more creators to join the program by new ways for creators to earn revenue through Shorts, and re-imagining the music industry and creator dynamic by opening up ads monetization for those who feature music in their videos.

With this new chapter, YouTube now offers ways for over 2M partners to make money. The expansion of the partner program will enable more opportunities for creators and artists on the platform in all types of different creative formats. 

Starting from early 2023, Shorts-focused creators can apply to YPP by meeting a threshold of 1K subscribers and 10M Shorts views over 90 days. These new partners will be able to enjoy all the benefits YPP offers, including ads monetization across Shorts and long-form YouTube videos. The long-from content creators can still apply to YPP when they reach 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours. The expansion brings the new level of YPP with lower requirements 

YouTube also announced first-of-its-kind revenue sharing model for Shorts. To reward the creators, the platform in 2023 will move away from a fixed fund and doubling down on a unique revenue sharing model for Shorts for both current and future YPP creators. Because ads run between videos in the Shorts Feed, every month, revenue from these ads will be added together and used to reward Shorts creators and help cover costs of music licensing. From the overall amount allocated to creators, they will keep 45% of the revenue, distributed based on their share of total Shorts views. The revenue share remains the same, no matter if they use music or not. 

YouTube will also launch Creator Music in which creators can easily access an ever growing catalogue of music to use in their long-form videos. Creators can now buy affordable, high-quality music licenses that offer them full monetizing potential. This step will bridge the gap between the music industry and creators. The creator music is currently in beta in the US and will be expanding globally in 2023 which will offer a streamlined process for creators and they will be able to instantly see the terms of their song selection. 

Farhan Qureshi, Google’s Regional Director for Pakistan, Bangladesh & Sri Lanka, " Since 2007 the YouTube Partner Program has been revolutionizing the lives of content creators and the creative industry. This new chapter is one more step in the direction of creating a successful and financially secure future for creative minds through YouTube Shorts, especially the newcomers and mobile-first creators who will highly benefit from the initiative.”

Today’s announcement reflects the diversity of the platform’s growing creator community where users can promote their content on the platform with the new monetization system of YouTube. For more details click here.
