"Ice Universe, who has often been critical of Samsung's product design in the past, reports that Galaxy S26 Ultra's mid-range telephoto camera will feature a 3x f/2.4 lens with a 10MP 1/3.94" sensor with 1.0µm pixels. For context, this year's Galaxy S25 Ultra utilizes the Sony IMX754 in this role - a larger 1/3.52" sensor with 1.12µm pixels. Note that "larger" here is very much relative - this is one of the smallest tele camera sensors that you will find on an Ultra flagship."
"Sure, the S25 Ultra also has a 50MP IMX854 (1/2.52", 0.7µm) sensor in its 5x periscope with a focal length of 111mm. However, Apple's new camera is quite close with a 48MP 1/2.55" sensor (same 0.7µm pixel size) and a 100mm lens. Then there's the vivo X200 Pro with a 200MP 1/1.4" (0.56µm) sensor and an 85mm lens - of course, we should be looking at the vivo X300 Pro tele camera,"
Galaxy S26 Ultra's mid-range telephoto camera will feature a 3x f/2.4 lens with a 10MP 1/3.94" sensor and 1.0µm pixels. That sensor is smaller than the Galaxy S25 Ultra's Sony IMX754, which uses a 1/3.52" sensor with 1.12µm pixels. The IMX754 is a 12MP unit with optics that cover only 10MP, and the S26 sensor might similarly be a 12MP die cropped to 10MP. The S25 Ultra also includes a 50MP IMX854 5x periscope (1/2.52", 0.7µm, 111mm). Apple's 48MP 100mm camera and high-resolution vivo tele solutions are competing points. Internal discussions at Samsung consider options but switching to a 50MP 4x solution may be too late.
