Could Galaxy S27 Ultra bring zoom camera upgrades? New leak has bad news
Those hoping for more impressive zoom camera hardware might be disappointed.
A trusted leaker has quashed rumors that the upcoming Galaxy S27 Ultra would feature upgraded zoom camera capabilities, with a 4x sensor replacing the existing 50MP 5x lens. According to phonefuturist, Samsung was reportedly testing a 50MP 4x sensor (1/1.9-inch) for the S27 Ultra. However, GalaxyFlash2025 had previously claimed that the S27 Ultra would abandon the 3x and 5x cameras in favor of a 4x 1/1.9-inch sensor, which would be larger than the 3x and 5x lenses in the S26 Ultra.
Despite these two sources suggesting a major change to the S27 Ultra's zoom camera lineup, this latest leak indicates that Samsung will retain the 50MP 5x telephoto camera, as seen in the S24 Ultra, S25 Ultra, and S26 Ultra.
