Samsung‘s 2023 flagship series, the Galaxy S23 lineup, has been in the news for quite some time now, with renders and leaks revealing its design and specifications. The rumor mill also reveals that the Korean company will announce the series in early February. While we still wait for an official word, a leaker has revealed some camera specs of Samsung’s 2024 flagship – the Galaxy S24 Ultra.

Noted leakster Ice Universe claims that the Galaxy S24 Ultra will feature a new and improved telephoto camera sensor and zoom mechanism. He specifically mentions the ultra model but the S24+ and the vanilla S24 may get the same treatment.

Further, the cat says that the main camera on the smartphone may remain the same or carry slight improvements. Samsung’s flagships, especially the Ultra models, already offer unmatched zooming performance. The Galaxy S22 Ultra currently leads the market, but the Galaxy S23 Ultra is set to take its place shortly.

As Sammobile rightly points out, LG Innotek recently showcased a new telephoto camera module that functions much like a traditional DSLR camera lens, preserving image details. It uses a folded-optic design that keeps the overall size down, resulting in a lens that covers a 4-9x range, with true optical zoom in between. It’s possible that Samsung may use the same module or a similar mechanism on the Galaxy S24 Ultra.

As mentioned, the Galaxy S23 series is rumored to launch in February. The upcoming lineup will use Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip, offering a significant uplift in performance and efficiency. The ultra model could arrive with a new 200MP primary camera.
