The issue of using a 200-megapixel camera in the rapidly approaching flagship Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is practically resolved. Earlier it was reported that the Koreans kept the best HP2 sensor in terms of capabilities (Xiaomi and Motorola HP1), and now UniverseIce has revealed another feature of the Galaxy S23 Ultra against the background of competitors from China. According to him, the smartphone will allow you to take pictures at a resolution of 12.5 megapixels, that is, in 16-in-1 binning, and will refuse the 50-megapixel mode (4-in-1). Whether it will be possible to receive 200-megapixel images is not specified.
Note that today the norm for the Galaxy S22 Ultra is a 108-megapixel camera with 9-in-1 binning up to the same 12 megapixels. Such a solution in theory makes it possible to achieve imitation of huge pixels and greater light capture, which affects the quality of images in difficult lighting conditions. Samsung HP1 sensor in Xiaomi 12T Pro produces 2.56 microns in 12 MP mode, HP2 should have a physical size of 0.6 microns, that is, this figure will be slightly smaller, which means it will lose to 50 MP GN options with larger physical pixel sizes. How Samsung will promote its new developments remains to be seen early next year.
