Description:
A leak suggests that big changes are coming to the main and telephoto cameras for the Samsung Galaxy S22 range.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

The Samsung Galaxy S20 and Samsung Galaxy S21 had the same assortment of cameras, but there could be big changes coming for the Samsung Galaxy S22 s camera configuration, according to the latest leak.

@FrontTron (a leaker with a reasonable track record) has claimed that the Samsung Galaxy S22 and Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus may have a 50MP main camera, a 12MP ultra-wide, and a 12MP telephoto (offering 3x zoom).

For comparison, the Galaxy S21, S21 Plus , S20 and S20 Plus all have a 12MP main snapper, a 12MP ultra-wide, and a 64MP telephoto (offering 3x hybrid optical zoom). So if this leak is right then both the main and telephoto cameras are changing for the new phones. Its possible that the ultra-wide is as well, but the number of megapixels seemingly isnt.

There are no additional details on these cameras, but Samsung unveiled a new 50MP smartphone camera sensor earlier this year, so its possible that will be used. It's a large sensor, with fairly large pixels, and should be capable of performing well in low light.

We would however take this leak with a pinch of salt, as its very early for Samsung Galaxy S22 rumors, with the phone likely not landing until early
2022, and even the source says to take it with some salt.

Theres also no news on the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultras cameras here, but weve previously heard that this might get some major upgrades too, with leaks suggesting it could have a 200MP sensor and continuous optical zoom .

Whether these leaks pan out or not, were sure the Samsung Galaxy S22 range will have some excellent photography options, as Samsungs flagships almost always do. And given how many of the companys phones have now had the same camera setup wed think big changes are likely. These are the best Samsung phones
