Huawei selected the 1G6P lens for the upcoming top P70 variant costs about $12 for prototype models and was reduced to $6-7 at the mass production stage.

Kuo said Huawei will use Sony’s IMX989 in the P70 Art variant along with a 1G6P lens combination. This information on this matter suggests that the 1G6P lens could leverage the quality and capability of the IMX989 sensor.

Although, the 8P lens is cheaper than the 1G6P lens but the advantages of the latter provide a better edge in better optical performance with more deformation-resistance. That’s why Apple featured the lens in the iPhone 15 Pro models.
