Samsung confirms plans to implement a 200-megapixel sensor for the telephoto camera in its upcoming smartphones.
In a blog post, Samsung describes the advantages of this combination of sensor and telephoto optics. Such an upgrade could potentially deliver better photos and videos even in low light and at night, thanks to pixel binning and in-sensor zoom. The sensor could also simulate zoom levels at 3x, 6x, and 12x with similar optical quality and include natural bokeh.
