Galaxy S26 Ultra could mark the comeback of variable aperture cameras on Samsung phones

14 March 2025
It was first introduced by Samsung with the S9 series in 2018.

Pretty sure Samsung’s previous efforts were better described as dual aperture rather than variable, but maybe that’s splitting hairs 🤷‍♂️

    Sure, Ultra gets everything, but not midrangers S26 and S26+ staying again with same old cameras.

        Samsung really is going behind Apple's footsteps. Just as it was rumored that next year's iphone may get variable aperture we get this

          They need to make and a variable ring for the camera. 🤣🤣

            Wow, finally a positive rumor about Samsung. I'm marking this day on my calendar

              That would finally be an actual camera upgrade, hopefully it's true.
              I also hope it's not gonna be that aging 200MP sensor again, but rather a newer and bigger 50MP sensor, and an actually better ultrawide would be very welcome, not just one with higher resolution.

              (S29 series doesn't exist yet)
