2023-12-22 21:52:50
Recent leaks suggest that the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is poised to revolutionize smartphone photography with substantial camera upgrades. Rumored features include a Photo Remaster option with AI capabilities, an ND Filter function, and a default photo output of 24MP. Here's what to expect from these anticipated enhancements.
Key Camera Upgrades (Rumored):
-
24MP Default Mode:
- Tipster Ahmed Qwaider on X has hinted that the Galaxy S24 Ultra might adopt a default photo output of 24MP. This signifies a significant leap from the longstanding 12MP default resolution, promising not only more pixels but also enhanced image quality and detail.
-
Following Apple's Lead:
- Samsung appears to be following Apple's footsteps, which introduced 24MP default photos with the iPhone 15 series. While Apple achieves this through pixel-binning 48MP captures to produce 24MP output, Samsung is rumored to employ a 200MP sensor in the Galaxy S24 Ultra, potentially binning even more pixels.
Expected Camera Features:
-
Photo Remaster:
- Drawing inspiration from the Galaxy Book 4 laptops, the Galaxy S24 Ultra might introduce a Photo Remaster feature. This could enable users to apply one-tap AI-based enhancements to their photos. The feature is speculated to offer three options: Portrait, Remaster, and Delete, with Remaster providing quick AI-based improvements.
-
ND Filter:
- While not a physical Natural Density Filter found in DSLRs, the ND Filter feature is expected to offer software-based exposure control. Previously present in the S23 Ultra's "Expert RAW Labs" section, it could make a return with potential refinements.
Launch Expectations:
Given the imminent launch of the Galaxy S24 series next month, more concrete details about these camera upgrades are anticipated. The Galaxy S23 Ultra's 200MP camera and its dual-mode (200MP and 50MP) capabilities set a high standard, and the S24 Ultra aims to build on this foundation.
Stay tuned for official announcements and detailed specifications as the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra prepares to redefine smartphone photography.
