- Samsung’s Galaxy S24 Ultra will reportedly offer “good” 5x zoom quality.
- This is due to the previously rumored 50MP 3x tele camera, a leaker claimed.
- This would address a key weakness of Galaxy Ultra phones if confirmed.
A leaker claimed last week that the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra will gain a 3x 50MP telephoto camera, representing a major resolution improvement over the current 10MP 3x tele camera. Now, the same source has more details on this new camera.
Leaker Ice Universe claimed on X (formerly known as Twitter) that this new 50MP telephoto camera has a 0.7-micron pixel size and a 1/2.52-inch sensor size. This, therefore, isn’t the largest sensor by any stretch, being slightly bigger than the Pixel 7 Pro’s 48MP 5x periscope lens but falling well short of 50MP main cameras seen on the likes of the base Galaxy S23. It sounds like all these pixels will be put to good use, though.
