Samsung‘s upcoming Galaxy S24 Ultra is reported to shift from the default 12 million pixels to 24 million pixels for RAW image capture. This move mirrors Apple’s strategy with the iPhone 15 Pro series, which introduced algorithmic adjustments to output default images at 24 megapixels from its 48 MP sensor. The leaked information, shared by source Ahmed Qwaider, indicates that Samsung aims to keep pace with Apple’s imaging advancements.

Galaxy S24 Ultra will also enhance images you’ve already captured with AI

The Galaxy S23 Ultra, equipped with a 200 MP main camera supports both 200 MP, 50 MP, and 12MP modes. Leaks surrounding the Galaxy S24 Ultra suggest the continuation of the same main camera resolution.

One noteworthy feature anticipated in the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s camera system is the “Photo Remaster” function. Drawing inspiration from the Galaxy Book 4 series notebooks, Samsung is expected to infuse AI elements to enhance captured images. The Photo Remaster function reportedly offers three distinct options: Portrait, Remaster, and Delete.

The Portrait option is geared towards creating a nuanced depth of field for enhanced subject rendering after you have already taken an image in normal mode, while Remaster provides a one-click enhancement for pictures. The Delete option is anticipated to eliminate unnecessary elements from images, probably similar to the Magic Fraser feature we saw on the Google Pixel 8 Pro, but with a refined implementation.

Furthermore, akin to the Natural Density filter found in DSLRs, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is rumored to introduce a feature that adopts a similar implementation by controlling parameters such as shutter exposure. However, the ND Filter feature isn’t new and it currently exists inside the Expert RAW Labs section of the Galaxy S23 Ultra.
