V early September, Samsung introduced ISOCELL HP1 — first in world image sensor for smartphones, the resolution of which is 200 MP (16 384×12 288 points). But until the manufacturer is in a hurry to use it in their products.

When?

By information of the authoritative insider Ice Universe, in next year we not see neither one Samsung smartphone with 200 megapixel camera. Instead, the manufacturer will continue to improve 108 MP. K e.g. Galaxy S22 Ultra sensor still will 108 megapixel, but will offer better detail, more accurate colors and lower noise level compared with sensor ISOCELL HM3, which is used in Galaxy S21 Ultra. It will be complemented by an ultra-wide lens for 12 MP and two telephoto lenses 10 MP.

A here is the Galaxy S23 Ultra expected in 2023, until rumored to receive the same 200 MP a sensor that should provide higher detail and 4K video recording and 8K with wider viewing angle.

Samsung has optimized the 108MP sensor for three years, and the result is better year by year, which is better than replacing the sensor frequently. It is said that the S23 Ultra will adopt 200MP sensor from next year, and then it will be optimized for several years.
