Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra May Drop 3x Telephoto Camera, Says Tipster

The rumor mill has been swirling around the highly anticipated release of Samsung’s Galaxy S24 Ultra, and the latest report suggests that it will come with one less camera than its predecessor. The tech world has been abuzz with rumors and leaks about Samsung’s latest flagship smartphone, and GSMArena.com has the latest scoop on what to expect from this highly anticipated device. Here’s what we know so far about the upcoming Galaxy S24 Ultra and why it’s making waves in the smartphone industry.

Samsung’s Galaxy S lineup has featured four rear cameras since 2021, with two of them being telephoto units – a 3x telephoto paired with a 10x periscope telephoto on the Ultra models. However, according to reliable tipster, Ice universe, this may change with the Galaxy S24 Ultra set to launch next year.

Ice universe claims that Samsung has removed the 3x telephoto from the Galaxy S24 Ultra and merged it into the periscope telephoto. While this information is not very specific, another tipster suggests that Samsung has dropped the 3x telephoto from the Galaxy S24 Ultra and instead added a variable folded telephoto with 3x to 10x zoom.

Last December, Ice universe mentioned that Samsung would replace the telephoto sensor on the Galaxy S24 Ultra with a new solution. This 3-10x variable folded telephoto could be the new solution referred to at the time. However, it’s important to be cautious as plans could change over time. Samsung is more than six months away from unveiling the phone.
