Today, Samsung shared an amazing awareness of its 200MP super high-quality camera. It was launched with Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra and it has evolved throughout the past years.
Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra takes ultra-high clear photographs that contain a massive amount of details powered by the new ISOCELL HP2 image sensor. It uses a secret recipe for powerful pixel clarity and enhances colors, and pixel structure.
That’s not it, the new HP2 sensor equips pixel binning technology, fast autofocus, and HDR capabilities to enable stunning pixels in an image. However, this evolution in the 200MP camera is not an ordinary one, it’s big. How big?
A 200MP image is 16 times bigger and has 16 times the information than a 12.5MP camera. That’s what we call evolution. The large sensor with lots of pixels allows you to maintain the level of detail in the photograph even after you chop, crop, zoom, or resize. The photograph will try its best not to blur.
Furthermore, the ISOCELL HP2 utilizes an advanced deep-learning algorithm to produce 200MP images with more accurate colors and details.
The new Tetra Pixel technology boasts extra power to the smartphone and ensures optimal quality in photos. It can combine up to 16 individual pixels into one and make it an ultra-large pixel.
Even though it is a 200MP power blaster, Samsung’s latest flagship operates it in different output options of 50MP and 12MP. So you will be able to change the resolution accordingly.
Once launched, the current 200MP Samsung camera phone triggers a 12MP camera by default, which merges 16 pixels into one big pixel. Whenever you need a super large quality sensor, just select it from the top menu of your camera app.
