The Galaxy S25 Ultra could bring two key camera upgrades
Galaxy S25 Ultra: Game-Changing Cameras?
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is rumored to feature significant camera upgrades, according to a new leak. The phone will reportedly include a 50MP ultrawide camera and a 50MP 3x telephoto shooter, enhancing its photographic capabilities. These upgrades aim to improve low-light performance and image quality in zoom ranges. Despite these enhancements, there were earlier speculations about an even more advanced zoom feature, which now seem less likely.
How does the Galaxy S25 Ultra's camera setup compare to its predecessor, the Galaxy S21 Ultra, particularly in terms of the telephoto lens?
The Galaxy S25 Ultra's camera setup is expected to see significant upgrades compared to its predecessor, the Galaxy S21 Ultra, particularly in terms of the telephoto lens. According to leaks, the S25 Ultra will feature a 50MP 3x telephoto camera, a significant improvement over the S21 Ultra's 10MP 3x telephoto lens. This upgrade would allow for better zoom capabilities and improved low-light performance. Additionally, the S25 Ultra is rumored to have a 50MP ultrawide camera, a 200MP main camera, and a 50MP 5x camera, making it a notable improvement over the S21 Ultra's camera system.
What upgrades are expected for the ultrawide sensor and 3x camera on the Galaxy S25 Ultra?
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is expected to receive significant upgrades to its camera system, particularly in the ultrawide sensor and the 3x telephoto camera3. According to leaks from the tipster Ice Universe, the ultrawide camera will be upgraded to a 50MP sensor. This is a substantial increase from the lower resolution sensors used in previous models, aligning the Galaxy S25 Ultra with other high-end smartphones that offer high-resolution ultrawide cameras, which are capable of pixel-binning to enhance low-light performance and potentially support 8K video recording13.
Additionally, the 3x telephoto camera is also set to be upgraded to a 50MP sensor, replacing the previous 10MP sensor used since the Galaxy S21 Ultra1. This upgrade will allow for better pixel-binning capabilities, which could enhance photo quality in low-light conditions and improve the detail in 3x and portrait shots1. The higher resolution of this camera will also aid in achieving better results in hybrid zoom situations, bridging the gap between 3x and 5x zoom levels, and it may also support detailed macro photography13. These upgrades suggest a significant improvement in versatility and overall image quality for the Galaxy S25 Ultra's camera system.
