Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra to have upgraded ultrawide camera only
Samsung's Galaxy S25 Ultra is only expected to launch in January, but it's been in the rumors a lot recently. Today, from Chinese leakster Ice Universe comes word that the device will ship with an upgraded ultrawide camera.
According to him, the S25 Ultra will have a 50 MP ultrawide using the Samsung ISOCELL JN3 sensor, with 0.7um pixel size. That's the good news. The bad news is that Ice Universe says this will be the only camera that's getting an upgrade. All the others remain unchanged from the Galaxy S24 Ultra. This contradicts a rumor from May which claimed the 3x telephoto would be new too.
So, we'll once again see the ISOCELL HP2 200 MP main camera (which will be made on a newer process, but the model itself is unchanged), the same 10 MP 3x zoom camera using Sony's IMX754 sensor, and the same 50 MP 5x zoom camera using Sony's IMX854.
The S25 Ultra has most recently been rumored to only ship with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset globally. It wil get more RAM than its predecessor, a larger screen with smaller bezels, and the same battery capacity as the S24 Ultra, unfortunately. However, it will be the thinnest and lightest top of the line device when it comes out.
