Leaked sensor details for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra suggest incremental camera upgrades compared to its predecessor, but a notable upgrade to the ultra-wide sensor.
Recently revealed full camera sensor details for Samsung ’s next-gen flagship. The files detail camera hardware that some might find disappointingly similar to the current Galaxy S24 Ultra, albeit with one significant upgrade. If this line-up looks familiar, it’s because all but one of these camera sensors remain unchanged from the current Galaxy S24 Ultra, suggesting that, in terms of sensor hardware at least, the Galaxy S25 Ultra won’t deliver a substantial camera upgrade over its predecessor.
The details also confirm an earlier leak from the respected tipster Ice Universe, who predicted the A major upgrade, however, is the inclusion of a new 50-megapixel Ultra-Wide module, a significant leap from the 12-megapixel sensor found in the Galaxy S24 Ultra. Switching to the higher-resolution ultra-wide camera would bring the S25 Ultra in line with Google’s Pixel 9 Pro, which uses a 48-megapixel ultra-wide camera, and potentially with Apple’s 2025 iPhone 16 Pro, which is hotly tipped to undergo a similar upgrade. Switching up to 50 megapixels would provide more detail in wide-angle photos and more than enough resolution to allow 8K video recording from the ultra-wide camera. However, at this point, there’s no news as to whether Samsung might offer this option. The new ultra-wide sensor is also capable of capturing around 34% more light than the Galaxy S24 Ultra version. This improved lens could improve picture quality significantly, especially in low-light situations, where Regardless of any camera hardware improvements, we can typically rely on Samsung to deliver a range of software and AI-based camera upgrades with each new Galaxy S generation. All will be revealed at Samsung’s launch event, which is expected to take place just a few weeks from now, in January 2025.
