      Anonymous, 07 Oct 2019960fps is recorded at 1080p for Huawei Mate 30. For Sony, ... moreXperia has 1080P 960fps.
      Full HD mode was given to the 2017 phones.
      It is based on sensor tech, no software.
      THis kind of sensor reads data 4x faster than regular sensor.

      Mate 30 Pro has same imx607y of P30 Pro, which means there is just software tricks.




        Anonymous, 07 Oct 2019Actually I have had a galaxy kzoom for years with more than... moreLOL so Samsung have already done a phone with 10x Optical Zoom? Before Huawei :D

        Hahahahahah lets see what excuses fanboys come out with now ;)

          Out of Control, 07 Oct 2019No need to use LG's Transparent OLED, Samsung already made ... moreNot that simple.

          Transparent oled is much more expensive than regular oled. Than people will complain when price rise more $100, $150 just for the screen.

          Oppo is having same issues of Samsung , the photos from front cam is blurred and worse quality than 2013 2MP phones because of the loss of light throught screen.

            Nick Tagataka, 07 Oct 2019Now if Samsung can stop using their current horrible image ... moreThat is very true.
            Photographer told me Samsung phones are good for instagram.
            If you try to print any shot, it will look beyond ugly.

            I think funny how youtubers point their photos are super detailed.

                  The hate in this one is strong indeed.

                    Anonymous, 07 Oct 2019960fps is recorded at 1080p for Huawei Mate 30. For Sony, ... moreSony did 1080p 960fps slow motion before Huawei back in 2018 with Xperia XZ2, though their implementation was pretty terrible indeed.

                      Anonymous, 07 Oct 2019Horrible image processing? Lol Samsung has the best camera... moreWith such an atrocious sharpening and noise reduction, I definitely wouldn't call S10/Note 10's camera the best. Compared to the photos from iPhone 11 Pro or Mate 30 Pro, those coming out of Note look like they are upscaled 5MP images even though it's technically 12MP. What's even funnier is that Galaxy S9 and Note 9 do considerably better job than their successors in terms of detail retention... It's better to wait until S11 if you want a great camera phone from Samsung.

                        I hope samsung finally uses a higher resolution camera . the 12 mp camera does a good job but that number is from the s7 model .. time for samsung to up their game in this regard as well . been using thier phones for the past 5 years now . really like their phones. look forward to the note 11 with insane specs.

                          Dealler, 07 Oct 2019I´m pretty confident they will do better than Huawei.Sure thing. They can it make explode, for example.

                            Samsung has the best cameras on the market along with Huawei and Pixel.

                              Nick Tagataka, 07 Oct 2019This is one of the reasons why I think companies shouldn't ... more960fps is recorded at 1080p for Huawei Mate 30.
                              For Sony, Samsung, One Plus it is capped at 720p.

                              Slo-mo 4k won't be coming anytime soon.
                              That would consume the entire 128gb of base storage.

                                  Exactly the type of person I was talking about :D

                                  Thanks for proving me right ;)

                                  And others on these comment said I was over-reacting hahahah :P

I think this will solve Xiaomi and Oppo's problem with Underscreen selfie camera. There's no need to neuter the pixels around the camera area.

                                      Cameras cameras cameras... for selfie for selfish people... So boring to read news about smartphones this days. There is no news about new microphons, new speakers, new audiotrack for headphones. Also there isn't any news about something what make this phones smarter.

                                        Lets hope Samsung don't cheat this time and actually puts a 4000mAh battery into the phone instead of just claiming it is 4100/4300/4500mAh
