Samsung is gearing up to launch the Galaxy S23 series of devices on February 1. Out of the three smartphones launching in the lineup, the spotlight will be on the top-end Galaxy S23 Ultra, which is said to come with a few upgrades over the current Galaxy S22 Ultra.
Ahead of the launch, detailed specifications of the device have emerged online. Now, Twitter user @edwards_uh has shared (now deleted) the complete details regarding the camera sensors on the upcoming device.
It appears that Samsung has changed almost every camera sensor on the upcoming flagship except for a couple. The cameras that will remain the same from the current generation are the 10MP 3x and 10x telephoto units, still using the Sony IMX754 sensors.
The screenshot verifies that the ISOCELL HP2 sensor, an upgrade from the ISOCELL HM3, is present on the Galaxy S23 Ultra. However, it also makes clear that the 12MP ultra-wide sensor is a Sony IMX564 and not an IMX563, as previously thought. Specifications are lacking because the IMX564 sensor seems to be brand new.
In addition to the back cameras, the screenshot also shows a decrease in total megapixels for the selfie camera on the Galaxy S23 Ultra, as well as a new, enigmatic ISOCELL sensor.
First off, the selfie camera on the Galaxy S23 Ultra appears to use a 12MP ISOCELL 3LU sensor rather than the 40MP ISOCELL GH1 sensor on the Galaxy S22 Ultra. Since this name hasn’t been officially revealed, either the app got this information wrong or Samsung has created a new 12MP ISOCELL (3LU) sensor specifically for the Galaxy S23 Ultra that it hasn’t yet publicized.
