Samsung Galaxy S25 series launch is months away
It is expected to bring notable upgrades over the predecessor
Camera specifications of the Galaxy S25 Ultra have just leaked online

Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is only a few months old but we're already seeing rumours about its successor on the Web. The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra was earlier said to come with a triple rear camera setup, ditching the fourth 10-megapixel telephoto sensor with 3x optical zoom. However, a new leak claims that next year's Galaxy S series flagship will still feature a quad rear camera system, similar to the current model. It is said to boast a 200-megapixel primary camera.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra specifications (rumoured)

Reliable tipster Ice Universe shared alleged camera specifications of the rumoured Galaxy S25 Ultra on Weibo. As per the tipster, the handset will have a quad rear camera setup, comprising a 200-megapixel main camera and a 50-megapixel sensor with 5x optical zoom, a 50-megapixel ultra wide-angle camera, and a 50-megapixel telephoto sensor with 3x optical zoom.

The presence of a 50-megapixel 3x sensor and 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens in the Galaxy S25 Ultra would be a notable upgrade over the Galaxy S24 Ultra. While the existing model does also have a quad rear camera setup, including a 200-megapixel wide camera, it gets a 12-megapixel ultra-wide shooter, a 50-megapixel telephoto shooter with 5x optical zoom, and a 10-megapixel telephoto shooter with 3x optical zoom.
