Samsung still has ample time before the launch of its Galaxy S25 series. While we are presently anticipating the release of the Galaxy foldable, rumors regarding the Galaxy S25 series have already started to emerge. A recent leak has unveiled the camera specifications of the Galaxy S25 Ultra.
Camera Upgrades
According to the reputable source Ice Universe, the S25 Ultra will maintain the quad-camera setup seen in its predecessors but will introduce two significant upgrades. The informant states that the phone will feature a 200MP primary camera, a 50MP ultrawide sensor, a 50MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom, and a 50MP super-telephoto lens with 5x optical zoom. These enhancements indicate better performance for the ultrawide and one of the telephoto lenses.
Comparing to Galaxy S24 Ultra
For comparison, the Galaxy S24 Ultra comes with a 12MP ultrawide lens and a 10MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. The primary and super-telephoto sensors remain the same at 200MP and 50MP resolutions. Earlier rumors had suggested that Samsung might reduce the number of cameras on the S25 Ultra to three. However, since Ice Universe has a reliable history of leaking Samsung details, it's likely that the Galaxy S25 Ultra will keep its quad-camera setup.
Additional Rumors
Although the tipster didn’t mention it, there are additional rumors that the S25 Ultra may utilize a newer 200MP sensor, nearly 1 inch in size. If accurate, this would represent a significant hardware upgrade in camera capabilities for the S25 Ultra. The device is also expected to feature the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 processor and One UI 7 based on Android 15, though any design changes may be minimal.
