The smartphone packs a 48+13+8 MP triple back camera system. The 48MP is the main camera that does most of the heavy lifting, the 13MP camera is a telephoto lens that takes care of the zooming while the 8MP is the wide-angle camera.

The three lenses put together results into a focal length with a zoom power of 10X, hence the name of the smartphone.
