The Spark 8T’s selfie snapper will be an 8MP lens tucked inside the waterdrop notch. The camera setup supports portrait images/videos, smile shots, and 1080p time-lapse video recording. Under the hood, the Spark 8T will be using the octa-core MediaTek Helio G35 processor. We are yet to get the RAM and storage configuration details.
