The Galaxy S25 family will be introduced at first quarter of 2025, although we have plenty of information about it thanks to leaks and rumors that have been surfacing in recent months. Today, the rumors focused on a specific model, the Galaxy S25 Ultra, and left us with a very interesting piece of information that suggests a clear change in trend.

This rumor ensures that the Galaxy S25 Ultra will have a new configuration only three rear cameras, which would mean ditching the camera, as the Galaxy S24 Ultra has four cameras with perfectly differentiated functions.

I know you’re thinking that this would be a step backwards and that it doesn’t make sense, but the truth is that when it comes to smartphone photography, it’s not all about the number of lenses, There are other things we need to consider.such as their quality and terminal capabilities in computer photography.

Computer photography uses technology digital image processingincluding advanced features only possible with AI support to improve photo quality and achieve a level of performance that would not be possible with a traditional photography model.

This would theoretically be the camera that Samsung would remove from this new high-end smartphone. To exchange remove this Samsung lens would improve processing capacity of the main camera and would rely on AI to achieve results similar to what we would have with said lens.

Another improvement the main camera would have would be its ability to capture a more lightbut there will be no changes in resolution or sensor size. Even the wide-angle shot will not see any changes. important compared to the solution we find in the Galaxy S24 Ultra, at least according to the latest information.

Samsung is said to be testing a periscope-type camera a new variable zoom unit with two fixed focal lengths. The first would range between x4 and x5 and the second between x6 and x7. This would be a significant improvement over what the current model uses, as it is limited to x5 zoom. We’ll see what all of this information turns out to be, but as I told you, it’s not crazy, especially considering the increasing weight of AI and computational photography.
