As the release date for the Samsung Galaxy S23 series approaches, the number of leaks has increased. Recently, leakster Ice Universe shared information about the camera features of the upcoming phones. According to the leak, the camera on the Galaxy S23 series will have a 25% performance increase.

Samsung Galaxy S23 series will be able to shoot 8K 30 FPS video

According to popular leakster Ice Universe (@UniverseIce), the Galaxy S23 series will have improved video recording capabilities. The Galaxy S23, S23 Plus, and S23 Ultra are rumored to have 8K video recording at 30 frames per second, a 25% improvement over the 8K at 24 frames per second that the Galaxy S22 series was capable of.

The ability to record 8K videos with a faster frame rate will likely reduce the motion blur and choppiness that is common with 24fps video. While many people still associate 24fps with the classic “cinematic film” look, having the option for 30fps video recording provides more possibilities for Galaxy S23 users who want to create videos. This could be useful for a variety of purposes, including creative projects.

According to the source, a more useful option for the Galaxy S23 series would be 4K video recording at 120 frames per second. This was not available on the Galaxy S22 series, including the top-of-the-line Galaxy S22 Ultra. The ability to shoot 4K videos at 120fps would allow users to slow down the footage to 30 or 24fps, creating a more cinematic look with slow motion effects. This would be a better improvement for the Galaxy S23 series compared to the 8K video recording feature, which some may consider to be a gimmick.

According to the source, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 that will power the international version of the Galaxy S23 series supports “up to 8K 30fps or 4K 120fps video capture”. However, the way this is worded in the whitepaper is unclear, and it is not known if the manufacturer will be able to choose one or both options. As noted by Ice Universe, it seems that the 8K@30fps option may be chosen instead of the more flexible 4K@120fps.
