The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S22 and Galaxy S22+ will have a front camera with a resolution of 10 megapixels, making it the fourth year in a row with Samsung not changing the pixel count of its flagship phones. The only exception is the S22 Ultra which is expected to pack a 40MP sensor, just like the S21 Ultra.
Samsung last changed the front camera resolution with the Galaxy S10 series back in 2019. The S9 and S8 series had both come with 8MP sensors and the 2MP boost had brought about an adequate increase in selfie quality. However, the resolution has since remained constant at 10MP with the Galaxy S20 from 2020, Galaxy S21 from 2021, and now the Galaxy S22 series from 2022 (via Galaxy Club).
This obviously doesn’t include the Ultra models though. The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra and S20 Ultra came with a much more dense 40MP resolution, and it turns out that the Galaxy S22 Ultra’s front camera will sport the same pixel count.
And as for the rear cameras, the 2022 Ultra model will feature a setup not too different from the S21 Ultra. The primary is a 108MP snapper. It is joined by a 12MP ultra-wide lens, a 10MP 3X telephoto, and another 10MP 10X telephoto lens.
The Samsung Galaxy S22 series is set to make its debut on February 8, with an actual release following 10 days later.
