However, there’s one camera component that is seeing a significant upgrade: the ultrawide sensor. The leak points to a new 50MP ultrawide sensor, a big jump from the 12MP ultrawide sensor on the S24 Ultra. This new sensor is also physically larger, which could mean better low-light performance and improved image quality. This could be a game-changer for landscape photography and capturing those expansive shots.
Of course, cameras aren’t the only thing that makes a phone. Besides the camera system, there are rumors about other upgrades for the Galaxy S25 Ultra. These include a fresh new design with rounded edges, a possibly larger 6.9-inch display for more immersive viewing, and a powerful new chip from Qualcomm to handle all the AI processing and demanding tasks.
It seems to be a bit of a mixed bag. While it’s a little disappointing that the main camera hardware might not be getting a major overhaul, the upgraded ultrawide sensor and the focus on AI are intriguing. Perhaps Samsung has some innovative camera capabilities up its sleeve that will surprise us. We’ll have to wait for the official announcement to see what they’ve cooked up.
