DXO One camera finally comes to Android with better Facebook Live integration and a battery pack

The DXO One has proven to be very popular amongst its users. Almost everybody who owns one recommends them. The problem until now, though, is that only iPhone users can take advantage of them. That’s all about to change, though, as DXO have announced that the DXO One is to come in a new Android flavour.

They’ve also expanded their accessories list, adding a new battery pack for extended life. The software has also seen an update to perfect Facebok Live Multi-cam streaming. The new software also adds new 4K timelapse features.

The big news is obviously that it’s finally available for Android. Instead of the standard Lightning connector, we will see a Type-C USB connector. So, you will still need a fairly recent phone in order to use it. The external battery pack, which I assume will be compatible with both iOS and Android versions doubles the camera’s battery life. So, you get 4 hours of use instead of 2.

DxO have an “Early Access Programme” for the Android version. The accompanying Android app to go along with it will be free in the Google Play store in the coming weeks.

The updated DxO One app for iOS brings with it Multi-cam Facebook Live. It utilises the DXO One and the phone’s two built in cameras. A potentially fantastic feature.

Users can preview all three views to compose shots, adjust lighting and prepare before shooting. Users can switch from one camera to another to another, while keeping consistent sound from a single microphone.

A new 4K timelapse feature with intervalometer has also been added to the app. It seems that you get the option to either record straight to video that you can instantly share, or as separate individual raw files. These can then be post processed and turned into video.

A price for the DxO One for Android has not yet been specified. One can probably presume that it’ll be the same as the current price for the iOS version. That is $469. The battery pack will be $60 upon release.

The DxO One iOS app, for those who already have the camera, has been updated and is available now in the App Store.

I’ve had a play with the DxO One a couple of times now, and it is very good. For what it costs here in the UK, I can’t see myself ever buying one. The multicam feature does make it a little more tempting, though.
