It will use a 50MP crop from the 200MP sensor.

3.5mm headphone jack & microSD card slot is included in this update 🤣

Kidding aside, thats why I kept my Note9 as a backup.

    If only you could use the flash with the ultra wide camera. Imagine a flagship phone with no flash with its ultra wide camera

      Distraneurin, 19 May 2023"50mm equivalent will result in more flattering portra... moreI would argue that 35mm is the normal, while 50-85 being the portrait lenses.
      Anyway, 35mm I find it to be too narrow for majority of cases when it comes to 95% of my photo style. Most people want to fit in their shot the scenery or more than just one person, so they need an 23-25mm in most cases.

        Is better instead of that useless 3x zoom.

          2× very very welcome.

            Neph, 19 May 2023Yeah, really good job Samsung. Bring new features to only ... moreThe weird part is my A52 and A52s had this feature right from the start. S series doesn't have it? Guess what else flagship series doesn't have? A headphone jack!

            Well, it's nice to see S series is trying to catch up to A series, please let me know when they also get a firmware update with a headphone jack, I'd love to see it.

              "50mm equivalent will result in more flattering portraits"

              Portrait lenses are usualy defined between 85 and 135mm.

              50mm is defined as standard lens. But great news.

              My perfect combo for phone would be 35mm main camera with 2x sensor crop option for 70mm and ultrawide 20mm or less. 2 cameras with large sensors, simple.

                breaking news lmao

                  Yeah, really good job Samsung.
                  Bring new features to only Ultra model (that could have been brought to Vanillla S23/S23+ as well given their 50 MP sensors) where there is still unresolved bananagate issue with main S23/S23+ sensors.
