IT House reported on June 24 that although Samsung has been upgrading the front camera of its Ultra model Galaxy S flagship, the basic version and plus version have used 10MP lenses for four consecutive years. However, a few days ago, there was news that Samsung may upgrade the front camera resolution of the Galaxy S23 and S23 Plus next year.
An existing user named Ianzuk said on the Naver forum that according to supply chain sources, off-screen camera technology will not appear in Samsung's Galaxy S23 series.
But unfortunately, he did not mention whether Samsung's new flagship will not support the off-screen camera in its entirety, nor did he explain why Samsung is reluctant to adopt the technology, although everyone may have a own understanding in mind.
IT Home learned that Samsung previously launched the $1799 Galaxy Z Fold 3, which is equipped with Samsung's original off-screen camera, but most reviewers believe that this level of off-screen camera technology is not worthy of its value.
At present, the mass production of off-screen cameras will be a very risky behavior for Samsung, because the shipments of the new generation of Galaxy S23 may be greatly affected, in case it is not done well, it may lead to a conventional form of flagship products that have not been available for a whole year, and it will further lead to Samsung fans gradually losing their goodwill.
But in any case, I believe that as this technology gradually matures, both Samsung and Apple will adopt off-screen camera technology, and even previously there was news that Samsung has been developing new under-screen camera technology for Apple.
It is worth mentioning that there is also news that the Samsung Galaxy S24 series may use off-screen camera technology, which is basically in the same period as the industry's previously expected Apple iPhone 16 series, but it is too early to talk about this rumor, we may as well let the bullet fly for a while to see it again.
In addition, foreign media previously reported that Samsung is considering equipping the Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S23 Plus with a 12MP front camera sensor, and Samsung Electronics is developing a 200 million pixel mobile phone camera, and it is expected that the camera will be first installed on the next generation of Samsung Galaxy S23 series mobile phones.
But now, that's still a bit difficult, even though Motorola is already going to use the new 200-megapixel sensor.
