Rumor: the Galaxy S23 Ultra will have a 200MP sensor with 0.6µm pixels, 5,000mAh battery

04 August 2022
That's the same battery capacity as the S22 Ultra. Similarly, the new 200MP image sensor may be the same size as the current 108MP sensor.

Is Samsung S22 Ultra equipped with adaptive FPS screen?
In Settings I can only find 60 & 120 options.
Can somebody please confirm?

So mostly the photos are going to be heavily "computed", but that's normal these days.
    I'd stick with 12 MPix sensor.

        200PM but same pixel size binned down to 12MP ?
        Wouldn't results be similar than the current 108MP then ?
        Meaning it's all pretty much pointless ?

          Almidani Princess, 04 Aug 2022200MP is totally unnecessary. Instead they should focus on ... moreOr... stick with the 5000 mah capacity, but make the phone smaller. S21u size with space for s-pen slot, decent speakers and vibration engine.

            jus some question.. Samsung has been using the same sensor resolution and sensor size for 2 years straight. kept the battery at 5k and still the 3x and 10x.

            if Samsung keeps doing this, why else we would buy all Samsung flagships if we're still gonna be using the same phone every year

                Anonymous, 04 Aug 2022which is bigger than 0.60If Samsung has any smart people there, they can oversample 4K from 8K.
                This can give much better quality than any native 4K.
                Also, it just needs to set same tricks Apple uses.

                Old iphones had 1.5. Next has 1.22 micron.
                There is no penalty.
                It is myth since BSI became popular.

                Light saturation is not defined by pixel size.

                  notafanboy, 04 Aug 2022Can someone name the advantages of a 200MP sensor on a phone?What is samsung plan

                  1) grab attention from costumers
                  2) brag about low quality 8K videos of just 70Mbps bitrate (lower than 4K@60 from other phones)
                  3) advertise more digital zoom, probably more than 100x this time
                  4) push 12 or 16K videos when future SoCs have support for.
                  5) push the HDR even further, no matter if photos end artificial as it is already (99% of mobile media will be praising anyway)

                    And the other models will continue to be gimped. That's the model Samsung and Apple are going down.

                      Bad move.

                      The S22 Ultra's 108mp sensor already struggled to resolve fine details in less than ideal light. 200mp smaller pixel size sensor is a very bad idea that will only serve to slow the camera app down. IQ will not be improved in any meaningful way. Video will be worse because the sensor will have to be heavily binned down to fit 4k resolutions.

                      Samsung need to stop this stupidity.

                            or you could use the 200mp to brag down the pub, with all your non tech savvy mates who only know things like wow and omg :-)

                              sixtymes, 04 Aug 2022I have two questions that maybe someone here can answer? ... more1) Only 8g3 is 3nm.
                              2) even 8g1 is already armV9

                                Ditch the useless 200MP sensor, increase battery size to 5500 mAh, implement proper stereo speakers and use only SD chips worldwide. That would make better sense. I suspect this will be yet another failed Samsung phone.

                                  Anonymous , 04 Aug 2022How do you know that?Iphone uses frame stacking for video as default to deal with exposure and avoid overexposed lights.

                                  Anyway, gonna increase iso to make brighter at expense of texture.
                                  But this is what people on youtube like, for unknown reason.

Resolution doesn't mean much when the sensor pixels are so inefficient because of their tiny size. It basically cancels out the resolution increase because you'll have more noise which will mush fine details.

                                      Combined with simple plastic small lenses and 200mp becomes a marketing gimmick which will only serve to slow down the processing of images.

Instead they should focus on getting the basics right which the have always been struggling with. Also the battery should at least be increased to 5500 mAh..
