Samsung Galaxy S24 series reportedly not getting selfie camera upgrade

22 July 2023
Samsung is also said to reuse the 200MP sensor from the S23 Ultra for the S24 Ultra.

The Poco F3. However, ditching MIUI means that camera performance suffers. Pixels are the only ones that don't suffer from a hit to camera performance by running custom ROMs. Running official Lineage with Google Camera from the Play Store works really well on Pixels.

    If Samsung can improve the selfie camera with software optimisations, why doesn't it do it for the S23 series?

              Everything is an iPhone now a days. Nobody innovates or prices correctly anymore.

                Samsung does have poor 8K (pathetic 70Mbps when it should be 200).
                Also bad 4K. Awful colors, 10x more sharpening than it should have, huge rolling shutter, bad microphones.

                  Do not forget some ppl here want A2 to be better than A1 while costing same or lower.
                  Do not blame if upgrade are almost zero.
                  Blame these ppl.

It has just proven useless. Fast charging, the one thing people truly don't care about. Better lens? Not really. Number of cameras and their resolution in chinese toys does not transform into quality, so why follow it? And instead of having poor quality 8K, I'll rather have perfect 4K.
                      You chinese fans always boast the specs, but don't care about the result, which is mostly poor.

                                  potato4k, 22 Jul 2023What kind of innovation are the Chinese doing? Multi aperture, fast charge, better lens/processing,number of cameras/resolution in next gen phone, hi res sensors with good hi res modes from ultrawide to tele, 8K including.
                                  Not sure how it is with others, but my samsung can't easily turn on flash, also cannot have it always on(like flashlight) when shooting still. May be only my model, but it's still pretty behind.
                                  Not to mention my alarm had no increasing volume option, it's just disaster coming from like Vivo to samsung.
                                  I know samsung had for example variable aperture, but there is none now, it's even more useful now with bigger sensors tho.
