Samsung Reveals 200 Megapixel Phone Camera for Smartphones 

Smartphone Manufacturer Samsung has revealed a 200-megapixel image sensor intended for smartphone cameras. It is one of the highest resolution phone camera sensors ever made. The ISOCELL HP1 has 0.64μm pixels and can bin 16 of them at once for the equivalent of a 12.5-megapixel sensor with 2.56μm pixels.

South Korea-based smartphone manufacturer calls the HP1’s pixel-binning technology ChameleonCell. The four-by-four 12.5-megapixel setting is aimed for low-light usage, but it can capture full 200-megapixel resolution photos or use a two-by-two binning technique for 50-megapixel images.The two-by-two binning mode also lets the HP1 capture 8K video. Samsung says the new sensor can shoot 8K without cropping, although standard 8K (7,680 x 4,320) is less than 50 megapixels. Samsung is also introducing a new sensor called the ISOCELL GN5.

It is a 50-megapixel sensor with 1.0μm pixels, and the smartphone says it’s the first 1.0μm-pixel sensor to integrate its Dual Pixel Pro technology. That makes it sound like a smaller version of the 1.4μm-pixel GN2, which was the biggest phone camera sensor available when it made its debut on Xiaomi’s Mi 11 Ultra this year.The smartphone manufacturer’s smartwatch shipments registered 860% year-on-year growth, catapulting the company to the number one position in India. Riding on the popularity of Galaxy Watch Active 2 and Watch 3 Series, Samsung ended the June quarter with a 41.2% volume market share.

Galaxy Watch4 and Galaxy Watch4 Classic are the first smartwatches to feature the new Wear OS, which is built jointly with Google. The biggest USP of the device is that it allows users to monitor their blood pressure on the go, at work, or at home. Galaxy Watch4 is equipped with Samsung ground-breaking bio-active sensor.
