samsung In 2021 announced its 200MP camera sensor, the ISOCELL HP1. However, the company is yet to include the sensor in any of its flagship series. Other brands like Motorola and Xiaomi have already decided to include Samsung’s 200MP sensor before the company can use it on any of its devices. Now, a new report from SamMobile suggests that Samsung is upgrading its most determined camera sensor to include it as the main camera on the upcoming Galaxy S23 Ultra smartphone. The upgraded 200MP sensor will be known as ISOCELL HP3.
Apart from the 200MP resolution, no other technical details about the ISOCELL HP3 have been announced yet. The report suggests that the difference between the HP1 and HP3 sensors may be narrowed down a bit, given Samsung’s frequent duplication of the 108MP camera sensor. Hardware upgrades from the HP1 to the HP3 are likely to be rather minor, with changes focused primarily on computational algorithmic improvements.
A 200MP sensor may sound like a lot, however, as flagship chipsets like dragon picture That’s as far as the 8 Gen 1 maximum single-camera resolution can support. In 2021, Samsung’s mobile camera major shared a video to explain the features and benefits of the first 200MP HP1 ISOCELL sensor. This video will give some hints about the improvements that will be included in the HP3 sensor.
In addition, nanocell pixel-binning helps to deliver the ideal pixel size on such high-resolution cameras. However, Samsung has proved that it can overcome most of the shortcomings in its 108MP sensor which offers smaller pixels. Users will have to wait to know what new level of detail the 200MP ISOCELL HP3 will bring.
