"There's one unusual flaw that you may or may not run into - if you have moving bright lights in the frame, they can get rendered weirdly in a hard to describe ghost-like way (the fifth sample below)."
Thanks for showing this. In a previous comment I wrote thst these are the best tele camera low light sample images I have seen from a phone, but I stand corrected. These artifacts are terrible and unacceptable. The bokeh in the 6th low light sample image of the 6x camera looks extremely artificial as well. It seems that it's maybe due to the same image processing issue.

    No global ROM - no worries. Sammy all the way!

      Seems like this phone is best portrait phone among all, very good skin tones, combined with detail nearly as good as vivo X200 pro and micro contrast as good as xiaomi 15 U. If it were globally available I would insta buy it.

        They also state the software version for tests as they frequently retest phones.

          I would say very good camera, but there is one thing that I do like. On photos from ultra wide and 6x there is visible pattern of generated small details. I hope that can be switched off. Also I would like to see in such test some basic DNG test.

            I think that overall these might be the best smartphone tele camera low light sample images I have ever seen. Though it's not clear which details are fake/AI.

              The design of the 6x periscope camera is interesting.
              1. Lenses are in the plane of the smartphone, so no need for rectangular lenses
              2. Light enters the lenses before it reaches a prism
              3. There are two prisms.

                I'd encourage anyone thinking about getting the Chinese version to rethink. I once got a Realme with a Chinese ROM and even with ColorOS set to English, half of the UI remained in Chinese. Even the changelog for OTA updates was in Chinese.

                The photos from this phone are lovely. For people that don't like them, I suggest getting a pocket sized camera like the Sony RX100, as you're unlikely to be satisfied with camera phones.

A few of the Chinese reviewers have standardized battery tests and whilst not class leading it seems to be on par with other 2k screen flagships with 6,000mAh batteries. It's doing slightly better in most tests than the Chinese Xiaomi 15 ultra which has a 6000mAh battery in the rankings I've seen. Seems to be the same display (except for the lack of curves) as the Oneplus 13 though so it's likely not the most efficient display

People can be fans of whatever they wanna be like you're a fan of whatever you like. Chinese brands way better than Samsung

But w... moreThere's still time to tix this, tbh it is pre-release sw and I see it having absolutely amazing highlights but very rarely (if nothing I see less blur on human subjects when compared to other ultras), I think it's the fact that they halved shutter speed in some scenarios so the algorithms are not yet 100% there - at least RAW works unlike on fx7u haha

                          as for Samsung fanboys here, remember that your hardware is in 2021 and that your OneUi is at iOS 11 level, just keep that one in mind.

                          I agree it should be a bit more bb but the speed they're pushing those iOS-level updates (animations, ui/ux) samsung people can only admire.

                              Well based on the tests throttles less than the s25ultra and around the same results as the the oneplus 13so I think it isn't bad as it's mentioned in the review

                                  yes some devices outlast samsungs 25 and s24 series but they should by about 2 hours considering they have a 20 percent bigger battery.

                                  if not they need to work on their optimisation, dont forget the s25 cpu runs slightly faster than the cpu in these other devices

                                    Seems the battery life is that terrible. As I saw China tech reviewers test the battery, and it's remains the same battery percentage as the S25 Ultra after 5 hours of tests.
