Surya, 23 Jul 2023When will you provide 20x optical zoom phone? They had 10x with K zoom.
Then no phone with zoom.

        They complain about motion blur in dark places, but do not want to prevent shutter speed to go low (like 1/4s, 1/8s, 1/10s) and blames shutter lag when it has nothing to do with it.
        They do not understand that so e phones are set to drop shutter speed to near 1s in favor of lower noise while other are set to keep it 1/16-1/32s to avoid blur while sacrificing quality.
        They want phone to know what they want when it is impossible.

        The r/android has so much dumb stuff as comments, that can rival amount of stupidity seen posted on whole twitter

            Samsung does not have cam division, it was shut down many years ago.
            Just employees that work on software.

            Except Z Fold, all other phones that have used UDC do not have samsung screen.

              YUKI93, 23 Jul 2023I'd rather see Samsung put a 50MP 1" sensor on th... moreI would argue that benefits of detail gain outweighs the loss in size.
              Not to mention, they need to feel premium, be unique to sell. Maybe they got lol 10mp and 3rd time the same cameras, but at least they can boast about the biggest zoom, the most Mp/detail etc.
              Nothing is perfect, some phones got big sensors but have trouble with unnatural processing, therefore there is no clear winner.
              Hi res file will always be more useful, I feel that now I'm on low res.
              How long it takes to capture still also matters, it was xiaomi's win for me(not sure how it's with the latest models tho).
              Recently I also see a need for long tele zoom or enough Mp to bypass that. 5x low res is definitely prehistoric now.
              AI fast focus could help too.
              BTW I don't use selfies, or almost never, back cam is a different story tho.
              As things stand, I don't see myself buying samsung. Maybe xiaomi, 12mm-120mm hi res in hdr feels useful to me even with all its quirks.

                  blue, 23 Jul 2023Remove one useless feature and add two even more useless?Those "two even more useless" features won't ever die and go outdated, deal with it.

                    Its fine for another year of Same front facing camera. Remember the one in S22 has been used probably 2-3 yrs as well.

                    But I just hope that by S25 they start utilization "Under Display Camera". Samung have both Display and Camera division that supposed to allow them to do heavy experimentation on this. It would be shame if other phone markers that buys parts be spearheading this tech advancement lol.

                          S23 Ultra = 8bit + 240Hz flickering.

                          😹😹😹😹😹😹😹

                            so whats the upgrade on s24 ultra then? only battery and charging speed?
                            then better to skip it and wait for s25.

                              Well slap Exynos on S24 put everything else same as models before and ask 1300 for a base S24 series.
                              Job well done Samsung.
                              Congrats.

Man, they... moreWith other words, you don't know about Camera Assistant, cause that allows you to select some smoothing for the camera in case you want it. Both take good pictures, it's just that Samsung went for as much versatility as possible, while Honor focused on Image Quality above all. In the end I'd choose the Samsung every day, cause for good image quality a proper camera still wins and in that case the versatility is simply the best.

                                        Samsung, please make an S24 Ultra version without any selfish camera! Instead of that useless feature, you can add the SD card slot and the 3.5mm jack.
