A new report has suggested that the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra will have its zoom lens capped at 50x magnification. This may seem odd considering the previously released Galaxy S20 Ultra sports a 100x Space Zoom, but the company is reportedly placing an emphasis on image quality and user experience over raw numbers.
Note20 Ultra will cancel 100X, the maximum is 50X, Samsung will strive to optimize the zoom experience of the maximum 50X, more focus on the experience.

The news was first shared by Ice Universe, a known leakster, on Twitter. According to his tweet, the South Korean tech giant will not feature the 100x Space Zoom that was found in the previously launched flagship series. Instead, an additional focus is being placed on improving the image quality and user experience when magnified to 50x zoom.

Despite having one of the best looking camera modules, in terms of technicality, the Galaxy S20 Ultra was not as impressive in real life when compared to its rivals. Thus, it would seem plausible that Samsung would double down on achieving high numbers and prioritize the improvement of its existing technology and offer a better photographic experience overall.

Unfortunately, Ice Universe did not share any finer details into the matter. It is also currently unknown if the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra will feature the periscopic lens either. While rumors regarding its other key specs have already surfaced, we would have to wait for the official announcement to confirm anything. So stay tuned as we will be covering its rumored August 5th Unpacked launch event.
