A new rumor from China regarding an unreleased Samsung flagship smartphone has just surfaced on Weibo, a Chinese microblogging website. The rumor is for the Galaxy S30 series, which will apparently still feature a punch hole display on the front.
For those unaware, the next gen selfie shooters in flagship handsets are expected to make a shift towards under display sensors, which are expected to be more common next year. Although, it seems like the South Korean tech giant will refrain from making this shift for a while longer. The news arrives from @数码闲聊站 who believes that the company will still ship the Galaxy S30 lineup with punch hole cameras on the front due to the maturity of the technology.
The tipster added that the Galaxy Z Fold3 will be the first from the brand to feature an under display camera. However, the next gen flagship Galaxy S30 series will still feature a punch hole shooter on the front owing to the company’s maturity with this particular camera technology in its smartphones. In other words, the company might be going for the older but more reliable technology while it perfects the newer one’s implementation.
Reportedly, the punch hole shooter on the Galaxy S30 series will be housed in the top center region of the display, while its primary rear image sensor will still sport 100 megapixel camera. While some rumors had pointed at a 200 megapixel sensor on the Galaxy S30 Ultra, other reports claim that the company will offer a more refined 100 megapixel image for the upcoming flagship series. Keep in mind, this is still an unconfirmed report and it is still too early to talk about the Galaxy S30 lineup, so take this news with a pinch of salt for now and stay tuned for more updates.
