As with the Galaxy S22 series, Samsung is not considering adding front-facing cameras to the upcoming Galaxy S23 series. While the reasons are yet to be revealed, we have some reasonable assumptions as to why the Korean giant doesn’t want to make this change.

A user named Yanzuk on the Korean site Naver discussed that the camera technology under the screen will not be included in the Galaxy S23 series, according to unnamed sources in the supply chain. It doesn’t mention whether a member or all of Samsung’s future flagship family will be excluded from the feature, and it doesn’t say why Samsung doesn’t want to use it even though we’ve reached an agreement.

We previously reported that the Galaxy S23 will receive an update for the front camera, but nowhere has it been mentioned that Samsung plans to potentially use the technology under the screens of all three models. The Korean tech giant may not be happy with this decision, as the built-in cameras are not designed to compromise image quality.

Samsung’s competitors such as ZTE and Xiaomi have tried such changes and even failed to improve the image quality of the front sensors placed behind the screen. Even Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 3, which launched for $1799 in the US, came with a camera under the screen, and testers concluded that this sensor processes images at a lower quality, which is unacceptable for such an expensive smartphone. .

It’s also worth noting that mass-producing under-screen cameras on a larger scale will be an expensive undertaking for Samsung, as the Galaxy S23 will likely ship in the thousands. Assuming that these cameras make a stunning display, this will cause dissatisfaction among customers who pay large sums of money for these phones, causing Samsung to lose its reputation as a customer as well as its investment in mass production of these phones. cameras.

We hope that we can expect Samsung to introduce under-camera cameras in its premium device series Galaxy S as other manufacturers use this technology more often. The blog post mentions that Galaxy S24 models may use under-display camera technology, but it’s too early to comment on these rumors. Source
