Samsung released Galaxy S21 Ultra’s ISOCELL HM3 introduction video
Earlier this year, Samsung launched its new image sensor called ISOCELL HM3 nearly the launch of the Galaxy S21 series. Moving on, this 108MP camera sensor made its first appearance at the first Galaxy Unpacked of this year, which currently comes with the Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G.
However, any brand has not yet used ISOCELL HM3 in its flagship smartphones so that the Korean tech giant felt to explain the details of this latest image sensor along with the video. This product packs in 108 million 0.8um-sized pixels that are optimized to enhance clarity, allowing it to capture images that are highly detailed.
Each pixel is improved with ISOCELL 2.0 technology for enhanced light sensitivity and color fidelity. It also features Nonapixel technology, which elevates performance in low-light conditions. Adding to this, this image sensor includes an improved re-mosaic algorithm that allows it to rearrange its 108MP to best effect in bright settings.
Bring Images to Life with Vibrant Colors
A truly capable image sensor needs to be able to adjust in various lighting environments to take high-quality photos. With Smart-ISO, ISOcell HM3 is equipped with two levels of conversion gain in high and low ISO modes, allowing the camera to wisely choose the best settings for lighting conditions.
When shooting in a well-lit environment, ISOCELL HM3 takes photos in low ISO mode to convey colors more clearly and reduce oversaturation. However, when taking photos in low-light environments, the sensor switches to high ISO mode to ensure that the photos are bright and clear.
In order to further improve night shooting capabilities, ISOCELL HM3 uses multi-sampling technology, which can read scenes in multiple frames and average them to reduce noise in the final image. As a result, you can get a clear and clear night scene, while the graininess looks less noticeable.
Capture All Motion Clearly
When capturing sports scenes in motion, nothing is more important than autofocus. Fortunately, ISOCELL HM3 includes Super PD Plus, which uses a microlens to cover the phase-detection focusing agent and produce fast and accurate autofocus.
With advanced curvature on the autofocus microlens, this advanced phase detection autofocus (PDAF) in ISOCELL HM3 allows users to keep fast-moving objects in focus even in dark environments, thereby providing clear and clear To capture them.

Samsung should stop making unnecessary phones and focus on ULTRA brand

Samsung makes some of the best phones in the world. But lately, the smartphone company has been creating too many different models that don’t really make sense. Let’s talk about why Samsung should focus on its best phone, the Galaxy S series Ultra, instead of confusing customers with unnecessary options.
The Problem: Too Many Choices
Take the Galaxy S25 Edge, for example. It’s actually a beautiful phone – super thin at just 5.8mm and incredibly light. The camera is excellent with 200MP, and the design is stunning. But here’s the thing: most people don’t even know it exists.
Samsung didn’t do a good job telling people about this phone. What’s it for? Who should buy it? At $1,099, it costs almost as much as their top phone, the S25 Ultra, but doesn’t offer as much value. This creates confusion for customers who are trying to decide which phone to buy.
The same thing happened to Apple with its iPhone 16e. It’s supposed to be a “budget” option, but it’s still expensive, and people aren’t buying it because they don’t understand why they need it.
Reports show that the S25 Edge isn’t selling well. Samsung keeps offering deals and bonuses to try to get people interested, but it’s not working. This happens when companies make unnecessary products – customers get confused and don’t know what to choose.
What’s Working: The Ultra Success Story
While the S25 Edge struggles, the Galaxy S25 Ultra is doing amazing. This phone is Samsung’s flagship – its best and most expensive model. It has a huge 6.9-inch screen, incredible cameras, and comes with the S Pen stylus that no other phone has, YES, the stylus.
Even though it costs $1,299, people are buying it like crazy (don’t forget, you can get it for much less, thanks to offers and discounts). Samsung sold over 5 million S25 Ultra phones in just three months. That’s more than S25 and S25+ models combined! This shows that people are willing to pay more for a phone that’s clearly the best option.
The Ultra consistently ranks in the top 10 best-selling phones worldwide. It’s popular in the US, Europe, and other markets because customers know exactly what they are getting – the best Samsung phone available.
Why Focus Makes Sense
Making multiple phone models takes a lot of time, money, and effort. Instead of spreading themselves thin, Samsung should put all the energy into making the Ultra even better. Here’s what they could do:
Better Cameras: The Ultra’s cameras are already great, but they could be even better. Some users want better photos in dark places.
Longer Battery Life: The 5,000mAh battery is good, but power users always want more. Samsung could make the battery last longer or charge faster. But keep it safe, we know about the Note7.
Smarter Features: The AI features are cool but sometimes feel like gimmicks. Samsung should make them more useful for everyday tasks.
Keep the S Pen Special: The stylus is what makes the Ultra unique. Samsung should keep improving it and adding new features.
Simpler Choices: Instead of four different S-series phones, Samsung could offer just two – a regular S25 and the premium Ultra. This would make it easier for customers to choose.
Quality Over Quantity
Samsung is at its best when it focuses on making fewer, better products. The Galaxy S25 Ultra proves this – it’s a phone that doesn’t compromise and gives customers everything they want in a premium device.
Meanwhile, phones like the S25 Edge feel like experiments that don’t quite work. Samsung doesn’t need to copy what Apple does or flood the market with confusing options. By focusing on the Ultra brand, they can stay ahead of the competition.
My Take
Samsung’s next phone, the Galaxy S26 Ultra, is a chance to show what they can really do. Instead of chasing every trend or launching phones that don’t have a clear purpose, the company should double down on its flagship.
Make it faster, smarter, and more polished. Listen to what customers actually want. If Samsung focuses on what makes the Ultra special, it can keep leading the Android market for years to come.
The message is simple: sometimes less is more. By making fewer phones but making them better, Samsung can create products that customers actually want to buy.
As always, I am there to listen to your opinion on my X handle (@SamsungSWUpdate). Enjoy Sammy!

Galaxy Watch 8 vs Watch 7: Side-by-Side Design Comparison

Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 series is ready to debut with a new design alongside new software features and technological upgrades over the Watch 7 models.
Every year, Samsung introduces a new pair of wearables, but its smartwatches play a key role in creating the launch anticipation. This year, the tech company has decided to give this lineup a new look that will include both square and circular shapes in one frame assembly.
Early leaks of the wearable have revealed key details, and here’s a full exploration.
A major change Galaxy Watch 8 is contributed by the square frame with round corners. The increased radius on four edges is forming a near circle perception, but each flat side is shaping the direction toward a square frame. Samsung may have changed the base layer, but the watch still carries a circular display on the top. The front view confirms this dual-layer frame composition that is different from the Watch 7 series.

This combination resembles the Galaxy Watch Ultra while maintaining a sport look. This square shape has made another notable change: The side buttons will be inline like the Ultra variant, but they’re not as rugged in the new smartwatch.
The Watch 7 series comes with a one-click quick strap release system, but the Watch 8 could adopt a dynamic lug system, given the new square shape, but it cannot be confirmed. The sensors below will be similar to the previous generation.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 series will consist of two models – 40mm and 44mm. These will likely equip a 1.3-inch and 1.5-inch Super AMOLED display, respectively, featuring up to 2,000 nits of brightness for maximum visibility. These two models could use the Exynos W1000 chipset, processed with 3nm technology, which appears to be the same as last generation.
The tech company confirmed that the new watches will be pre-installed with the One UI 8 Watch operating system, bringing new health features, AI capabilities, and more.
Another interesting upgrade in the Galaxy Watch 8 series could be optimized battery life over the Watch 7, but a specific capacity cannot be confirmed. Samsung has announced that the Galaxy Watch 8 lineup will launch in the second half of the year.

Samsung One UI 8 Watch launched with new health features for Galaxy smartwatches

Samsung has launched the One UI 8 Watch software update for Galaxy smartwatches, bringing new health features and improvements to sleep, heart health, fitness, and wellness segments for users. The list of new One UI 8 Watch features includes:
- Bedtime Guidance
- Vascular Load
- Running Coach
- Antioxidant Index
Bedtime Guidance
This feature is helpful for users recovering from irregular sleep and other related issues. It recommends an optimal bedtime after adapting to the user’s lifestyle and sleep patterns.

Running Coach
Samsung has this amazing addition for those who like to run and track. Running Coach helps users to train safely for long-distance sessions like marathons with intensity optimizations, which prevents risks of injury.
With real-time guidance, the Running Coach can create a personalized training program based on the runner’s fitness level. Users have to wear the watch and take a 12-minute session. One UI 8 Watch will collect the running data and create a performance analysis, including a rating from 1 to 10.
This data is used to create a training plan for a 5k, 10k, half marathon, or full marathon. This program has a gradual progress mechanism and unlocks new level after completing the current.

Antioxidant Index
The current generation of Galaxy Watch can measure carotenoids, antioxidants in green and orange fruits and vegetables, stored in the skin. Using light-activated BioActive sensors, the Antioxidant Index feature can assess carotenoid levels in five seconds.
This feature can bring healthy habits, for example, drinking orange juice can lead to a measurable change in the index, which can motivate the user to drink similar juice to improve health vitals.
