Samsung's new ISOCELL sensor has on-board DRAM, shoots 960fps video

26 February 2018
The ability to quickly read out the sensor data is used to enhance photos - both in very bright and very dark conditions.

AFAIK, the GS9 can only do 960fps in 720p while this XZ2 can do it in 1080p.
But hey, if it's Samsung, it's better than anything else.

            Sony is laughing with you Samsung.. Copy - paste, well done!

              That's simply what Sony does, though the amount of RAM is lower here I think!

                I wanna ask to Sony fans, is 960fps video only for Sony? So any smartphone can't have that feature?

                Sony has patented 4 layers, while Samsung has 3 layers to avoid Sony patents.
                I'm not a video person, i don't really care much about super slow motion and what i really care about is how they use this technology for noise reduction too.
                And about Samsung has used mix camera sensor between theirs and Sony's, Samsung design their own sensor, and Sony help them by making it, it's because Samsung has its limitations to produce theirs sensor.
                Remember Samsung SemiConductor division is the divison who makes Qualcomm chipset and Exynos chipset.

                  Sony is the father of Samsung. Samsung won't sound innovative without Sony.
                  If they never made this 960fps slow motion camera, our smartphones would be stuck at 240fps until, let's say 2020.

                    Cee0114, 26 Feb 2018I really wish Sony would put patents with their products. B... moreSony already patented 4 stacks of layer, while Samsung has 3 layers to avoid the patent.

                      Remember Samsung SemiConductor division is the divison who makes some of Qualcomm chipsets and their Exynos chipset, many smartphones are using Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset and Samsung use their Exynos for their flagship and mid/low devices.

                              In the presentetion they said that it shoots 720p@960 fps, note 1080p.

                                Hahahaha, jokes on Sammy now. I thought this 960 slow mo is just gimmick?

                                  Yeah right... after buying the sensors/modules from sony. They are now tweaking it to sound innovative. That's exactly the reason why it's not coming with the S9 duo... Sony just don't patent stuffs that's why sheeps of other brands brag about all their second hand "innovations". Others patent so much stuff to the point of stopping sony from using side FPS... *SIGHS*

                                  I remember how "GIMMICK" this was according to samsung loyalists... SMH

                                  ps. now there is one other smart home/speaker product that is having a screen just like Sony's home robot.
