Mobile phones are getting better every day. We used to rely on them just for communication, but now they handle everything from financial transactions to immortalizing our precious memories. Camera advancements have even made expensive DSLR cameras unnecessary. As a result, camera performance is crucial for people looking to buy a new smartphone. Samsung recognizes this and is working to enhance performance through hardware and software upgrades. However, recent reports suggest that the Samsung Galaxy S22 series won’t include 360 Audio for video recording or 50MP/108MP RAW capture in the Camera App. Here are the details…

Samsung Galaxy S22 series won’t be getting 360 Audio while recording videos, and 50MP/108MP RAW Camera App capture

With each new release, Samsung has been adding new camera features to its flagship smartphones. However, the company does not just focus on hardware upgrades and also add new features to their older models through software updates. One of the best examples of this is the Samsung Camera Assistant app. However, the latest news seems to disappoint users a bit.

Galaxy S22 camera

Over the past year, the Galaxy S22 series received support for Expert RAW, watermark features, Astronomical Hyperlapse, and more. The latest Galaxy S23 also comes with advanced features, with new 360 Audio and 200MP RAW camera shooting capability. Many Galaxy S22 users were expecting these innovations to arrive on their phones through future updates.

However, according to a statement from the head of the camera division on Samsung Community Korea, these plans have been halted due to technical limitations. While no specific reason was given for the absence of 360 Audio support, it was confirmed that there is no plan to introduce this feature to the Galaxy S22. Unfortunately, this situation will cause disappointment among many users, especially those who paid hundreds of dollars for the best Android phone just a year ago, only to face “technical limitations” after just one year.
