The Rise of 200 MP Periscope Telephoto Cameras: Samsung Enters the Fray
As the smartphone landscape continues to evolve, a new trend is emerging: 200 MP periscope telephoto cameras. These high-tech lenses have already gained popularity among Chinese smartphone makers, with vivo being one of the pioneers in this field. And now, Samsung is reportedly evaluating the use of a similar camera module in their upcoming devices.
A Brief History of 200 MP Periscope Cameras
The journey of 200 MP periscope telephoto cameras began with the introduction of the vivo X100 Ultra and its subsequent adoption by the vivo X200 Pro. As of now, it’s estimated that three out of five super-flagships from China will feature this innovative camera module.
Samsung Joins the Party
Good news for Samsung fans! The Korean tech giant has started the evaluation process for incorporating a 200 MP periscope telephoto camera, complete with a 1/1.5-inch type sensor. While this is slightly smaller than the 1/1.4-inch type sensor used by vivo, it’s clear that Samsung is serious about upgrading their camera capabilities.
Potential Impact on Samsung’s Future Devices
If Samsung decides to incorporate this technology, it’s likely to feature in the upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra. This could make Samsung’s 2026 flagship on par with vivo’s flagship for early 2024. As the saying goes, "better late than never." However, it’s essential to note that this is still a rumor, and Samsung may change their plans as development progresses.
