Samsung Galaxy S23 series will reportedly not come an under-display camera. South Korean publication Wccftech learnt about the development from supply chain sources. The news also means that we may have to wait until the Galaxy S24 for the UDC technology. 

Samsung already uses a 4MP under-display camera on the Galaxy Z Fold 3. This means that the South Korean brand knows how to make the technology work. The report doesn’t state the exact reason Samsung is holding off on introducing an under-display camera on its upcoming flagship S-series. 

Under-display camera technology is available only on a few smartphones these days including the Xiaomi Mi Mix 4, ZTE Axon 30 5G, and the Galaxy Z Fold 3. Although the technology works, the photo and video quality are in low resolution due to engineering challenges. They are also not on par with conventional selfie cameras. 

It’s likely that Samsung wouldn’t want to compromise on the imaging quality with the under-display camera. Additionally, the technology would also push up the price of the Galaxy S23 series. The Galaxy S-series sells in large numbers and it would put Samsung at a bigger risk of complaints about the poor performance of the under-display camera. 

Recently, it was reported that the Galaxy S23 series will come with an upgraded 12MP selfie camera. This is a significant and much-needed upgrade since the last two generations of Galaxy S-series phones came with the same 10MP sensor. Samsung usually announces its flagship Galaxy S series in February every year. There’s still plenty of time for the next-generation Galaxy S23, however, information has started surfacing on the web.
