The Samsung Galaxy A9 (2018) that is expected to go official tomorrow will be the world’s smartphone to arrive with quadruple camera system. It is speculated that in some markets that the handset could be called Galaxy A9s. An Indian publication has shared an official image of the rear panel of the smartphone that showcases its four-camera setup.

The below image suggests that the rear panel of the Galaxy A9 will be made out of the glass. The glass rear tapers towards the aluminum frame of th phone. A volume rocker and a Bixby button is placed on one of the edges of the phone.

A squarish fingerprint scanner is present on the backside of the phone. It goes without saying that the USP of the phone is the vertically aligned four-camera setup that resides on the top-left of Galaxy A9’s back.

Popular tipster Evan Blass has also shared an image that details the rear camera system of the smartphone. The  image shared by Blass reveals that the quadruple camera setup of the Galaxy A9 will feature an 8-megapixel ultrawide camera with f/2.4 aperture and 120-degree field of view. The next one that follows it is a 10-megapixel telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom and f/2.4 aperture.

The third sensor is actually main sensor of 24-megapixel with f/1.7 aperture that is equipped with “Clear & Bright” technology. Probably, this sensor will play a key role in capturing better shots in low-light conditions. The last one is a 5-megapixel depth camera with f/2.2 aperture. It will carry support for “Live Focus” feature. Below the four-camera system is an LED flash.

DXOMark is fast gaining a reputation as a worthy benchmark for cameras with its test results being projected whenever a new flagship phone is released. So it is not out of place if the firm’s opinion is sought regarding smartphone photography. AndroidHeadlines recently caught up with DxOMark Marketing VP Nicolas Touchard who categorically hinted that the adoption of Quadruple-camera setups on smartphones is not a question of “if” but “when,”.

The firm’s VP Nicolas Touchard disclosed that the present imaging systems which consist of the use of multiple cameras are a logical method of evading the physical limitations of handsets such as their inability to house large sensors and still retain a thin build. As a result of this impediment, DXOMark exec expects triple-camera setups like the ones implemented on the Huawei P20 Pro to become much more prevalent in the industry soon, as early as next year. Mr Touchard cited both their natural advantages over attempts to implement larger sensors into handsets and echoes from the mobile industry to back his prediction. The DXOMark VP’s prediction that triple camera setup has come to stay was given a boost recently when it emerged earlier this week when reports emerged that at least one model from Apple’s upcoming iPhone 9 series will feature three lenses on its back.

Huawei had argued that setups taking advantage of three or more cameras can deliver better image quality and superior zoom to their more traditional counterparts without requiring any compromises on the size of the final product. Indeed, the triple-camera packing Huawei P20 Pro is rated as DXOMark’s best mobile camera ever, beating the Galaxy S9 Plus, Pixel 2 XL and iPhone X.
