Samsung may have already tipped its hand with the camera capabilities of the Galaxy S25. Here’s what we know.
Samsung may have already tipped its hand about some of the key specs of the Samsung Galaxy S25. Though we’re many months out from the anticipated launch of the Galaxy S25 (the S24 was only launched in January of this year), Samsung has announced three new camera sensors that seem likely to be featured on the S25: the 200-megapixel ISOCELL HP9, the 50MP ISOCELL JN5, and 50MP ISOCELL GNJ.
For the 50MP GNJ sensor, we’re looking at what’s likely to be the Galaxy S25’s primary camera. It has a sensor size that’s roughly on par with the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24 Plus, with 1-micron pixels. For reference, 50MP is the approximate sensor and pixel size that’s been on phones since the Galaxy S22 and S22 Plus. If this is the primary sensor for the S25, it means we’re going another year without a major change to the primary sensor, though Samsung claims efficiency gains of 29% in preview mode and 34% with 4K video at 60 frames per second.
