What is the Galaxy S20 camera capable of?

Samsung will present the new generation of the flagship Galaxy S20, S20 Plus and S20 Ultra line today at 22:00 Moscow time. The phones will offer consumers all the best, but the feature that many are waiting for is a 108 megapixel camera. Let's take a look at what such a module is capable of and what the company can offer consumers regarding the camera?

There are already examples on the web demonstrating the capabilities of new Samsung cameras in low light. The source was Twitter – user @MaxWinebach, who is the author of publications on the XDADevelopers website. The comparison result is presented below.

So let's start with a 30x zoom. The first photo was taken on the S20 Ultra in normal mode, and the second at maximum zoom on the same S20 Ultra. The result is impressive:

An amazing result, considering that the company will not use a 108MP module in the S20, leaving this feature to the premium S20 Ultra. This is where we will see the real superiority of the new line's night mode, because Samsung combines 108 million pixels into 12 million using Nonacell technology. Thanks to the combination of 9 pixels in 1, the camera offers more light, which makes pictures extremely bright and clear at night.

We saw this before when we compared the Google Pixel 4 with the Xiaomi Mi Note 10, which also has a 108MP module. At that time, the Pixel 4's Night Sight mode was significantly outperformed by the Note 10's camera. Even the Pixel 4's neural networks did not help the device to take the lead. And this is taking into account the fact that the algorithms Xiaomi are obviously inferior to those of Samsung and Google.

But the wide-angle camera, surprisingly, in the case of the S10 shows more interesting results:

Perhaps the company will correct the situation with future updates, because it is obvious that the software in the devices is not final yet.

Galaxy S20, S20 + and S20 Ultra Specifications

According to rumors, the S20 will be equipped with a 6.2-inch screen, the S20 + will receive a 6.7-inch screen, and in the S20 Ultra we will be offered 6.9 inches. It should be noted that all 3 devices will be equipped with screens with an increased picture refresh rate of 120 Hz. The S20 and S20 Plus will be equipped with 12-megapixel main, 64-megapixel telephoto and 12-megapixel Ultrawide cameras. But the S20 Ultra will delight you with a 108-megapixel main camera, a 48-megapixel camera with 10x zoom, and a 12-megapixel module. The front camera in the phone will be 40 megapixels.

All 3 smartphones will be equipped with high-performance Snapdragon 865 or Exynos 990, Galaxy S20 and S20 Plus will receive 128 GB of internal memory, but the S20 Ultra will delight with options for 128/256/512 gigabytes.

Users will find a 4000 mAh battery in the S20, a 4500 mAh battery in the S20 Plus, and a 5000 mAh battery in the S20 Ultra with 25W and 45W fast charging respectively. We will also be delighted with new color solutions: space black, space gray, sky blue, and sky pink.

All 3 smartphones will receive a scanner under the display and Android 10 out of the box. In terms of RAM, we should expect configurations with 12 and 16 gigabytes. Surprisingly, not so long ago, 16 GB of ROM and 1 GB of RAM was considered the norm, and now 16 GB of RAM and 512 internal memory are becoming the norm. Technology, of course, is advancing very quickly.

Now let's look at the cost of new products. The S20 will sell for $ 850, the S20 Plus for $ 950, and the S20 Ultra for $ 1200. Prices have increased by about 10-20% compared to the S10 line. Probably, the company sacrifices cost in order to keep up with the maximum quality. It's not entirely clear who can afford the nearly $ 900 S20.
