Arsenal VR One Camera


Arsenal VR One is equipped with 13MP Rear camera with Samsung S5K3M2 ISOCELL Sensor at f/2.2 aperture while its front camera is at 8MP Wide Angle with an OmniVision ov8858 sensor at f/2.4 aperture. Just basic camera here offering panorama and hdr mode with gesture shot while for video it does have EIS. Here are teaser camera shots.

Does take detail shot though i find its focusing need some tweaking.

Selfie is just ok but I see some graininess. With this, VR One might struggle in low light.

Battery is at 2800mAh Battery. 2A charging via its propriety charger.


Other than VR One, Arsenal is set to launch two other smartphones.
