In a news we shared with you recently, we mentioned that South Korean technology giant Samsung introduced the 200 MP camera sensor. What makes this camera sensor, called ISOCELL HP3, unique is that it can be used on smartphones due to its 0.56 micrometer size sensors. In other words, Samsung would be able to produce 200 MP camera phones with this camera sensor.
Now, there has been an important development regarding ISOCELL HP3. Ice Universe, one of the major leaks in the smartphone industry, made a striking statement about this camera sensor. According to the statement made on Twitter, Samsung will not use ISOCELL HP3 in the Galaxy S23 Ultra.
The reason for the statement is unknown
Ice Universe did not explain why the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra would not use this sensor in its statements about ISOCELL HP3. However, Samsung stated that ISOCELL HP3 mass production would begin in 2022. So why can’t Samsung use such a high-quality sensor on its smartphones?
To be frank, the flagship phones released by Samsung already offer very good camera performance. You can see the simplest example of this in the camera performance of the Galaxy S22 Ultra. However, by integrating the hardware and software it uses, Samsung is pleased with the camera quality not only in flagship models, but also in mid-segment devices. As such, Samsung may not want to push the power of existing processors more. After all, the camera resolution values that the processors on the market can support are limited, and the higher the sensor quality, the less likely it is to use a secondary sensor.
