Samsung enthusiasts may have to wait longer for significant camera hardware upgrades in flagship phones. A recent claim by reliable tipster Ice Universe suggests that Samsung might not introduce major camera improvements until the Galaxy S28, skipping upgrades for the Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S27 Ultra. This decision could impact the camera innovations in Samsung's upcoming releases, particularly as competitors continue to enhance their camera technology.
Galaxy S25 Edge emphasized a sleek design, potentially limiting advancements in the camera department. Previous speculations hinted at Samsung's potential development of a modular camera system with attachable lenses and manual zoom control. However, the latest report implies that this innovative idea may not materialize in the near future.
