Samsung‘s Extremely telephones have presented a 10x periscope digital camera for a number of years now, incomes their position a number of the easiest digital camera telephones available on the market. Sadly, a leaker has now claimed that this can be a factor of the previous.

Leaker Ice Universe has claimed on X that the Galaxy S24 Extremely will change out the 10MP 10x periscope digital camera for a 50MP 5x telephoto digital camera. Extra in particular, Ice asserts that this can be a 1/2.52-inch sensor with tiny, 0.7-micron pixels.

This might be a unhappiness if showed as Samsung’s Extremely telephones have lengthy been the one gadgets with 10x periscope cameras (apart from HUAWEI’s older handsets). The 10x digital camera wasn’t absolute best because it presented a reasonably paltry 10MP decision for 3 generations, however it nonetheless delivered long-range zoom photographs that have been usually higher than different telephones. This digital camera additionally allowed you to movie video at a local 10x, leading to just right video high quality at this vary.

We’ve noticed telephones just like the Google Pixel 7 Professional the use of symbol cropping from a 48MP 5x periscope digital camera blended with imaging smarts to ship just right 10x photographs. However image high quality has a tendency to impulsively fall aside whilst you exceed 15x. So we’d be expecting a an identical problem for the S24 Extremely if it’s certainly choosing a 50MP 5x digital camera.

Ice Universe additionally claimed that Samsung will stick to a 10MP 3x telephoto digital camera for short-range zoom. This statement comes after leaks previous this 12 months that the Galaxy S24 Extremely would get a 50MP 3x digital camera as an alternative. This makes some sense as there wouldn’t be an enormous want for a super-high-resolution 3x digital camera to fill the zoom hole between 3x and 10x if Samsung is the use of a 5x 50MP digital camera.

Both manner, we are hoping this leak isn’t true as it could be a disgrace if Samsung mentioned good-bye to devoted 10x cameras. However between this declare and proposals that 200MP telephoto cameras can be a factor one day, we’re keen to peer how issues pan out subsequent 12 months.
