Samsung could correct one of the faults of its Galaxy S: the photo part, which although of quality, is far from the level of the competition. A report indicates a possible significant change to the sensors of the future Galaxy S25.
We have been accustomed to this annual meeting for almost 15 years. Since 2010 and its first iteration, Samsung a new one comes out every year Galaxy Sand even a new one Galaxy S series since the 5 and its Mini version. Currently, the Galaxy S24s are the most recent, but inevitably, they will be replaced by the Galaxy S25 in January 2025, probably. Over time, Samsung tries new approaches, both in terms of design and the technical specifications of its smartphones.
There is, however, one point on which we observe a certain stagnation: the photo performances. They are far from bad, but if we look at the DXOMARK rankinga benchmark in the field, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is 19th only, far behind the two 1st ties which are the Huawei Mate 60 Pro+ and the Oppo Find X7 Ultra, just recently added to the list. The fault of one aging photo sensor. THE Galaxy S24 And S24 Plus use the GN3 from Samsung and it’s not that different from theISOCELL GN5 present in the Galaxy S22. This could change.
The Galaxy S25 should greatly improve their photo part
A report of Etnews indicates that Samsung could partly do without its in-house sensors and integrate those from another company in its future Galaxy S25. The manufacturer in question being Sony, world leader in this market. In fact, the Japanese firm is in the process of relocate part of its production of mobile photo sensors to South Koreawhere Samsung is located.
It is not explicitly said that the Korean manager will equip its smartphones with Sony photo sensors, but a source close to the matter believes that it is very likely. “Samsung’s MX division encourages competition by mixing image sensors made by its System LSI division with Sony products in smartphones“. The chip in question would even be more efficient than current models thanks to a new process improving its quality. It is of course too early to say anything with certainty, but these indications are encouraging.
