Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra to feature improved 10x zoom

Last week, we heard the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra would come with Nightography Zoom, and a couple of days ago, we learned the smartphone would support 4K@120fps video recording and seamless zoom at 4K 60fps. The same source now claims the S24 Ultra will take better pictures than the S23 Ultra at 10x zoom.

Word comes from reliable tipster Ice Universe, who claims to have seen the Galaxy S24 Ultra's camera samples, which look better than the S23 Ultra's.

The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is rumored to feature four rear cameras - 200MP primary, 12MP ultrawide, 10MP telephoto (3x optical zoom), and 50MP periscope telephoto (5x optical zoom). Chances are the camera samples seen by Ice Universe were taken with a 50MP periscope unit.
