28 December 2024
It seems like only the ultrawide camera hardware will be changed.

Nameless, 29 Dec 2024What they changed was the focal lenght of their tele. That ... moreSensor changed a lot to...from a bad 10MP 1/3,54" on S23 Ultra to a more correct 50MP 1/2.55" on S24 Ultra.
10x on S23 Ultra was bad in term of both size and definition
Samsung's choice to switch to X5 with a better sensor was good...
Keeping the crappy X3 wasn't...

On Find X8 Pro, Oppo put a 1/1.95" on it's X3...it's far more consistent.

        jiyen235, 30 Dec 2024again, due to the high density of pixels, each pixel is 0.6... moreYes and ov50e is like it's smaller brother, I'm interested in lofic sensors and how they will reduce noise even further.. That'll make high iso performance even better.

          I'm actually more excited for the OnePlus 13. I think OnePlus will be the top brand this year especially if the OnePlus Open 2 comes out. I have heard Samsung isn't going to produce as many of the upcoming Fold 7 due to Fold 6 low sales.

            Mike9625, 31 Dec 2024This is shaping to be the most boring Samsung release ever ... moreSad but true. No wonder they are losing market share.

              Told many times before. Samsung is now even worse than Apple. Both suck and Stingyyyy assssssss F

              Chinese phones forever. 15 ultra or x200 ultra is the way to go for 2025

                This is shaping to be the most boring Samsung release ever and it was not an easy task considering that all of the releases from the last 5 years have been boring AF. LoL

                  That 3x telephoto lens sensor is miserably smaller sensor of 12MP "1/3.52" something. A telephoto sensor these days should have a minimum of a half inch sensor.

                    "Moving on to the one new camera this time around - the 50MP 5x zoom telephoto that replaces the 10MP 10x one of the previous three generations. With a setup like this one, the new model should be able to deliver massively superior 5x shots, while also maintaining a similar image quality to the S23 Ultra at 10x."

                      Anonymous, 30 Dec 2024You're delusional. With the 50 MP 5x telephoto camera,... moreSounds to me like you're the delusional one. They had 3x and 10x, and downgraded the phone. Instead of improving the 3x, they made it cheaper for themselves and substituted 2 sensors for a 5x one and called it a day, said on marketing material that it was still very good at 10x, and fools like you ate it like honey.
                      I got a Samsung phone, so I'm definitely no hater. But Samsung shenanigans got the worse out of me sometimes, so you can blame them.
                      I had a 600€ budget for a phone and bought an S23, it was a great phone for the price, but if I had a 1200€ one, I would go for a Vivo X100 Ultra and get the spare money to buy myself something else nice, instead of buying the same Ultra phone Samsung has been selling for the last 5 years...

                        DarlingYext, 28 Dec 2024Megapixels aren't everything, especially not on that s... moreThese people are the problem. These people are the reason marketing is one of the biggest division in huge tech companies.
                        I bet if they could somehow sell a 1/2" 500MP sensor in the Ultra without the picture quality being affected too much, they would do it and it would sell like hot potatoes. People are brainless nowadays.

                        But as of now, it's already hard enough to make 200MP have decent quality. And to make 1/1.31" compete with 1".
                        But marketing keeps getting that 💩 sold, gotta give them my props!

                          As long as the sales don't decline, they will keep selling people the exact same phone since the last 5 years... In fact, the 10x zoom was really their best camera phone, then they downgraded and never came back.

Aside from that this is beyond depressing, samsung used to produce the very best phones without any compromises, but this year the only real innovation seems to be the snapdragon elite and thats not even a samsung merit.
                                Chinesse phones are growing so fast in camera hardware, software deppartment and battery technology. Even iphones with similar camera sensors outclasses samsung pictures thanks to much better image processing. This year is the worst for samsung flagships that I can remember

Besides, omnivision's OV50H is genuinely good and has a really low noise floor surprisingly and perhaps has the best noise handling. I was truly surprised when i saw that video. Besides, we all know Samsung doesn't make the highest quality sensors lol

                                  Anyways that's only my theory, im not a huge camera nerd so i wouldn't know much.

I think there might be fault in pixels of hp2 and even more so with it's predecessor hp1.

                                      vik457, 29 Dec 2024Even similar sized sensors such as ov50h or lyt-818 have an... morethat's because there are too many pixels and thus each pixel is actually really small and so there's not much good happening due to the high res. High res should only be used for zoom cams as those could do with some cropping.

With the 50 MP 5x telephoto camera, you can take good 5x to 10x pictures. You can take good 6x, 7x, and 8x pictures. With the 10 MP 10x telephoto camera, you can only take good 10x pictures. If you don't understand how this is a significant upgrade, it's your problem.
