As for the dual camera, here, as in the majority of the Chinese public sector, issued recently, it is not completely necessary. It's just a publicity stunt, designed for what uninformed buyer will accept software algorithms for a real blur bokeh effect. It would be better, instead of two chambers placed one, but better quality.
