Honor Play 4 and Play 4 Pro will be launching on June 3rd but ahead of the official announcement, the live image of the Pro model has been leaked online. Interestingly, the live image, leaked by a tipster on Weibo, reveals an up-close look of the rear-facing camera setup on the Honor Play 4 Pro. The most interesting aspect of this live image is that the upcoming Honor phone can be seen with what looks like a LiDAR sensor. For those who are unaware of what a LiDAR sensor is, LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging), essentially uses light in the form of a pulsed laser to measure distances. It takes into account the amount of time the laser to return to calculate the distance between the sensor and the object.

In the leaked live image, you can see the dual-camera setup at the back of the phone sitting alongside the LED flash and the alleged LiDAR sensor. The primary 40MP sensor has been given an ‘AI’ branding that could bring in some scene detection features if not more. As the launch event is not far away, we will not have to wait for long before we get official specifications from the horse’s mouth.
