        Completely useless on a such small sensor, without even counting the shutter lag and the awful AF of smartphones

            SAMSUNG has exhausted in the race of camera ,so they are selling similar camera setup from last three or four years , this is the only physical change that a phone manufacturer does on its own, rest all chipset upgrades are available in market. Actually what I have felt that SAMSUNG DON'T LIKE CHANGES, So Market of CAMERA CENTRIC PHONES is captured by VIVO and OPPO.

              Mobilemaster, 13 Dec 2025It doesn't sound so great, only 12 MP...Yh, quite disappointing. Was hoping for something like what Apple recently did with their camera resolution - an output of 24mp.

                Xypleth, 15 Dec 2025Samsung software is so messy, bloated and slow, no hardware... moreNot true, Samsung rather have one of the best Android custom skin's around. I think it's one of the most well thought out and refined skin's currently. Some other's may have some nicer fluidity and some cool features too, but One UI definitely isn't the worst or least refined. It's easily number 1 or number 2 - colourOS is up there too and maybe magicOS.

                  Samsung software is so messy, bloated and slow, no hardware will save them. OneUI 7.0 made it better than it was, but it's still TouchWiz underneath, filled with inconsistencies and major drawbacks compared to competition.

                      I am interested in S30

                        Mobilemaster, 13 Dec 2025It doesn't sound so great, only 12 MP...Just to sell 1 year after a better version, then a 16mp version, ans so on... to keep selling un to 10 iteration of the same stuff

The main and ultrawide cameras are comparable, but the S25 Ultra can take good 3x and 5x to 10x pictures. The iPhone​ 17 Pro Max can only take good 4x to 8x pictures. Apple keeps following the footsteps of Android phone manufacturers very slowly.

                            lols when S27 series comes around rumors highly suggest that it's reusing the S26 series camera tech.

                              Anonymous, 12 Dec 2025Is the real iPhone sales going this bad? You sound so desperate!Samsung sales are bad. Every iphone variant is the best seller in its price range. Samsung has only ultra in worldwide flagship segment top 10 list and even it sells worse than iphone 17, 17pro and even 17pro max.

                                Shellyman Studios, 12 Dec 2025It's sad, isn't it???It's sad. Samsung was always 1-2 generations ahead of apple in camera department for a very long time. Apple's strength was limited to its walled garden. Since 3-4 years apple kept upgrading hardware but, samsung just watched apple surpassing them. Apple even battery destroys samsung in battery life, too.

                                    I use 13mm, 72mm and 240mm about as much as 24mm, if not more.
                                    In case you move from 5-6 years old bar phone to fold and get worse cameras- it's something to worry about.
                                    Seems tho, foldable have hit the ceiling of hw limits.

                                      Mobilemaster, 13 Dec 2025MP count is also important, especially when it comes at UW ... moreIt would’ve mattered if Bayer resolution was higher than 12.5 MP. The improvement in detail from 50 MP Quad Bayer and especially 200 MP QuadQuad Bayer is so minuscule and noise reduction is so aggressive that a 16-20 MP sensor with a regular Bayer CFA wipes the floor with all these supposedly high-res sensors.

                                        They better be, their competitors are in process of surpassing them.
