No need for this gimmicks.
Just need Sony imx800 1inch sensors, with CarlZeiss optics, along with lossless compression 10 optical zoom with Xneon flash

    Though they could do a decent 40-48mp sensor at 1 inch or just above.

      🙄quick math tells me that the sensor will be the size similar to those in DSLR/APSC cameras. they have yet to beat the size of the camera sensor in the Nokia 808.

        Need Carl zeiss optics and xenon flash. Bigger sensor, no need for 600mp.

          Ultra expensive gimmicks! Beware!

              There are absolute gems like panasonic g85 with 16MP micro 4/3rd sensor that can nail both pictures and video. Do miniature version of something like that with a 1/1.33 sensor with 16mp sensor ( someone do the math for the pixel pitch. Please!) and try bringing back that dual aperture ( its difficult for bigger sensor ). Instead of that useless pixel binning give us 14bit raw DNGs with 14 stops of dynamic range we have promising lightroom mobile app for android to edit raw. Instead of that useless 8k video with pathetic 80 Mb/s bitrate and poor autofocus give us real 4k 100 or 150 Mb bitrate, if you have the processing power ( I know you do) throw us 10 bit 4k 4:2:2 or even a 4:2:0 chroma subsampling with a log profile in the prp mode for the small scale filmamkers. Make a fucking business deal with leica or zeiss or someone and use a better glass.

              There you have it, that's the path smartphone industry should lead on with their future camera technology. Not some weak ass 48 or 64 or 108MP camera that give slightly better 12MP pixel binned images and mediocre video performance. You are selling an hybrid camera not an hassleblad.

                They should take care of what the eye can actually see first and fix the annoying hole in the screen.

After the last update a little better but battery life is worse. I can't get a whole day with full charge. I never game on phone, few calls and few video calls. I ain't buying any exynos ever again.

                            Bringing it to like a 14 core set up at a lower clock would have helped

                              Have you ever seen me arguing with someone when they say their product is good ?
                              I don't have problem with that. I have problem when someone present false info and make their brand much better and other brand much worse. Kinda what you do.

                              Just giving an example of my last debate.
                              A Sony fan was claiming to be BT.2020 the display must be 4k. I thought the 4k is UHD as they generally mean that. And said Xperia 1 is 4k but not UHD.
                              We had long debate where he denies my every logic without providing any source.
                              Then finally I said, If under 4k can't be BT.2020 display, then your Sony must be a liar.
                              They said their XZ3 is BT.2020 and it's display is 1440*2880 pixels.
                              Even though he doesn't want to say that he's wrong to claim that, instead he started providing new logic, again without any proof or source.

                              Is that my fault ?

                                People who has nothing to do in life generally do pass their time slandering others, that's what you guys are doing, not me.
                                I'm trying to do the opposite. Clearing your false claims.

                                What is this news about ?
                                600MP camera ? It's a great innovation. Why can't you guys appreciate it ?
                                Are you guys too much Samsung hater ?
                                The 600 MP camera is intended for drones-vehicles, Not for Smartphone. Samsung made it clear. Even here you guys talking about how unnecessary it is to put this camera in Smartphone.

                                Aren't you the guy who said Samsung's QLED is beggar's OLED ?

                                You also discredited Exynos 990 and praised Kirin. There isn't enough test of Kirin 990 and Exynos 990.
                                Your Kirin 980 isn't capable of beating Exynos 9820. The GPU perf of Kirin 980 is on the per with Old Exynos 9810. About throttling ?
                                In recent years, Kirin 980 set the record throttling measuring 55% and exynos 46% and SD855 31%. You 980's GPU can't match Exynos 9820's GPU even while exynos is throttling and Kirin at starting point.
                                I'm not saying anything without source like you guys.
                                Here,
                                https://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-s10-snapdragon-855-vs-exynos-9820-967562/

                                So, looks like you're the one who has nothing to do in life and too busy slandering Samsung or paid by Chinese brand(probably Huawei) to slander Samsung.

                                    AnonD-754814, 21 Apr 2020Well, I wasn't lying. Here, https://www.youtube.com/wat... moreSure that's the case cause One ui is more optimized for Exynos compared to Snapdragon.

                                    But this year, it's been a joke, piss poor multi core performance equivalent to last year Snapdragons, throttling issues, weak gpu, 20-25% less battery life.

                                    Even s10 lite with SD855 beating Exynos 990 in gaming coz of throttling issues on Exynos.
                                    Samsung should have put some dedicated cooling like Xiaomi or Huawei flagships.

                                      Chinese proprietary fast charging tech doesn't heat up phone even when charging and using the phone.

                                        Exynos and SD variant has the same system performance, but gaming performance in Exynos will take a hit. It is SD855+ levels (according to Notebookcheck), but with worse thermal throttling.

                                        Don't defend Samsung just because you're a fanboy. I would rather grab an iPhone 11 Pro Max, Mi 10 Pro, Oppo Find X2 Pro, etc. instead of the S20 Ultra.
