Samsung Galaxy Note20+ to have a 108MP sensor, 50X zoom

03 June 2020
It will keep a tri-cam setup like the Galaxy Note10+, the ToF is getting replaced by a laser focus sensor.

Sort by:

Boring and overpriced phone. Great news for Apple.

      Whackcar, 03 Jun 2020It might go the other way starting with next year. Samsung'... moreOkay...? And what good will AMD GPUs do in phones other than run games better. Its useless unless you play 3D games on your phone. Give me more efficient, more powerful CPU with better temperatures.

        AnonD-754814, 03 Jun 2020That's my thought too. Actually I was pretty sure that th... moreProblem is not PDAF, it is poor software.
        Most phones are PDAF and do not show same issues.

        Also, companies increase cameras while keeping f1.6, f1.7, f1.8 ... And you take photos at shorter distances, the amount of frame out of focus will increase.


        That is why the cameras 13, 16, 18, 50, 52, 70 or 80mm on the phones use f2.2, f2.4 or f2.6.

          Why not keep both ToF and laser AF? And I am sure no one is going to miss the 100X zoom even 50X is just a gimmick IMO 30X digital zoom is more than enough

            Anonymous, 03 Jun 2020S20 ultra will be the only true flagship of sammy this year ! First, the s20 focusing problems should be fixed.

              [deleted post]Bahahaha!

              No more glue for you today. ;-)

              If we need to use a stylus for any type of creativity, our 12.9 Pro is the device that is better suited for REAL authentic ideas/creations. Not a 6.5 - 6.9 phone display.

                It's used in combination with other PDAF tech.
                It's useful for night time pics and objects at shorter range.

                  I would keep 100x zoom everyone with a brain knows after 50 zoom the picture wont be perfect but so what its a zoom its a fun thing

                    interesting if the chipset is 5nm. also, the camera specs sound impressive. I wonder when release will happen?

Samsung's upcoming SoCs are supposed to come with AMD GPUs. If it lives upto the hype, people will be begging for Exynos SoCs in their regions.

                        And no, I'm not a Exynos fan or anything. I just consider all possibilities.

                            Whats the difference between laser assist focus and ToF? Isn't ToF also shooting lasers to measure the depth?

                              Just fake marketing from Samsung.

                              Canon created this tech, none of their cameras has 100% of the scene covered by AF points.
                              Actually, no camera cam do it.

                                Samsung, please make those bezels uniform. Nobody would mind a slightly thicker top and side bezels to match the bottom bezel. Please, Samsung!
                                It's Note 20 or iPhone 12 Pro for me this year.

                                  Actually I was pretty sure that the S20 ultra will feature LAF.

                                  Anyway Laser AF is faster than Dual Pixel AF. It just can't cover the entire area like Dual AF.
                                  So, it has to use PDAF along with LAF.
