According to a tweet from known tipster @FrontTron, the South Korean tech giant’s Galaxy S22 will include a triple camera setup on the rear. Its primary sensor is a 50 megapixel shooter, paired with a 12 megapixel ultra wide angle lens and a 12 megapixel telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom. These camera specifications might also be seen in the Galaxy S22+ model as well, although, we have no way of knowing for sure at the moment.

Interestingly, this implies that Samsung is not aiming on releasing its flagship with a camera over 100 megapixels, which has been seen in certain handsets in recent times. In other words, the company might be focusing on improving the photographic capabilities of the sensors rather than simply chasing high resolutions for marketing. There wasn’t a major improvement in camera quality between the Galaxy S20 series and the Galaxy S21 lineup, so the Galaxy S22 might arrive with a major bump in camera performance.

However, the tipster also stated that we should take this news with a pinch of salt. Meaning, this is still an unconfirmed leak. Previously, we had reported on a few leaks, which included another leak shared by FronTron regarding the Galaxy S22 and S22+ using a plastic back panel. Similarly, multiple sources also revealed that the display sizes of the upcoming flagship smartphone series.

Samsung Galaxy S22 will reportedly miss out on the Under-display camera

Samsung‘s next flagship smartphone is expected to be the Galaxy S22 which won’t hit the shelves until next year. However, the rumor mills have consistently been inundated with leaks concerning the Galaxy S21. The latest rumor comes from South Korea and alleges that the next-gen flagship will likely come without an under-display camera.

The present Galaxy S21 features a high-quality camera setup but the Galaxy S22 is tipped to come with some vital camera improvements. One such feature is a sensor-shift stabilization system as well as a continuous zoom periscope camera module. There were also rumors that the device will come with an under-display selfie camera. Going by this latest report from South Korea, that may not happen.

The report indicates that the Korean tech giant has decided against utilizing the under-display camera system on the Galaxy S22 series. The report hinted that the image quality of the UD camera is unsatisfactory to Samsung. In addition, the product yield is still very low and won’t be able to meet up the requirements for millions of Galaxy S22 production units which will debut last year.

In essence, the company is still working on improving the camera quality as well as the yield rate. The under-display camera is expected to debut on the Galaxy Note series in H2 2022.

The Samsung Galaxy S22 has earlier been tipped to come with a primary camera co-engineered with Olympus. The camera will also have a sensor-shift stabilization system and a continuous zoom periscope camera. The flagship will be powered by an Exynos 2200 processor in some markets as well as Qualcomm Snapdragon 895 in other markets.

Samsung to skip the ToF sensor again on the upcoming Galaxy S22: Report

Balaji S — Mon, 19 Apr 2021 13:49:58 +0000

Samsung launched the Galaxy S10 back in 2019 with a ToF sensor. Later, the company continued it till the Galaxy S20 series but ditched it on the Galaxy Note 20 and the 2021’s Galaxy S21 series. Now, a report by ETNews says that the company will do the same for the upcoming Galaxy S-series (Tentatively: Galaxy S22).

Apple’s LiDAR sensors work similar to the Time of Flight sensors on Samsung and help in depth information like distance measurement. Its prowess is showcased more in areas of AR, VR apps, and games.

However, the difference between Samsung and Apple in the past was that the former used an indirect ToF sensor which works well only when the light is strong enough. The Depth Vision ToF sensors on the Galaxy S20 series had a range of 3 meters while Apple made sure they cover as long as 6 meters.

This led to a lot of inaccuracy and eventually, Samsung removed it last year. This year, it continued the momentum and as quoted in the report(via Sammobile), a Samsung executive says that users are happy with the camera features on the Galaxy S21 and hence, there’s no need for a ToF lens on the successor(probably Galaxy S22).

Either way, it’s too early to talk about the Galaxy S22 series right now considering we are just three months past the Galaxy S21 launch. However, we can expect the company to reveal them around the Q1 of 2022.
