JAKARTA - Night photography is expected to see significant improvements on Samsung's latest flagship phone. A recent leak reveals new details about the main camera on the rear of the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra.
This South Korean smartphone will be equipped with a larger aperture, believed to be able to capture more light in dark conditions, resulting in sharper photos without relying too much on software processing.
Previous reports suggested that Samsung would likely embed the new ISOCELL HP2+ camera on the Galaxy S26 Ultra, which has a sensor size of nearly 1 inch and a wider aperture.
Now, a new leak from reputable leaker Ice Universe confirms this rumor. He states that Samsung will use the new ISOCELL HP2 sensor with an f/1.4 aperture on the main camera.
For comparison, the previous Galaxy S25 Ultra had an f/1.7 aperture. The wider aperture allows more light to enter the sensor, resulting in better low-light photos. Additionally, the f/1.4 aperture also provides a shallower depth of field, creating a more bokeh-like background.
Based on information so far, the Galaxy S26 Ultra's main camera will likely be a next-generation 200MP camera.
Initially, there were rumors that this camera would use a Sony CMOS sensor. However, it appears Samsung will stick with its own sensor. Beyond the camera, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is also rumored to be equipped with Samsung's latest chipset, the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2. While battery capacity is expected to remain unchanged, Samsung is reportedly developing improvements to charging speeds.
