The Galaxy A72 could be Samsung's first penta-camera phone, A52 will stick with four cams

25 September 2020
The Galaxy A9 (2018) was the first quad-camera phone in the world - Samsung loves experimenting with camera on the A-series.

This rumor is wrong any day.
Why would Samsung use depth sensor while there is a telephoto lens ?
Also Samsung A5-7(2016) had OIS. So, this isn't the first A series phone to have OIS.

                  I just had the possibility to try out the macro camera of the A51 and it is so much worse than the main camera in macro scenes that it is already visible in the phone screen.

                  Those 2 cam is there only for marketing reasons, shame on you Sammy.

                  It would be much better to have only three cameras. A normal, an ultrawide and a 3x zoom... And that would be something ;)

                              A52 and A72 series could be the most sensible phone to buy. Not too expensive but not too crappy either. 3 OS updates, in display FPS, bright Super AMOLED. Not too shabby. Alternatively, you can also buy other phones with better specs at lower price, but you can be sure it's crappy

                                        The addition of these low res "depth sensors" and "macro cameras" are plain dumb, and only there to add numbers to the camera count. They are literally useless. The software can use other existing cameras for depth info, and resized high-res photo from the main cameras are often better than the macro cameras.
