Samsung’s Shocking Camera Decision: No Major Upgrades Until Galaxy S28
Samsung’s latest decision regarding its smartphone cameras might disappoint many fans. According to a reliable source, Samsung won’t introduce any major camera upgrades until the Galaxy S28, continuing its recent trend of sticking with the same hardware. This means both the upcoming Galaxy S26 and even the Galaxy S27 Ultra are expected to use existing camera configurations.
Tipster Ice Universe reports that Samsung is focusing on creating thinner and lighter devices, which leaves little room for larger camera sensors. Additionally, internal financial pressures are playing a role. As Samsung’s chip division faces challenges despite large investments, the smartphone department is reportedly under pressure to boost profits by cutting costs—such as holding off on expensive hardware improvements.
Instead of new camera lenses or sensors, Samsung is expected to rely heavily on AI-powered photography features. Whether this software-based approach can keep up with Apple and fast-moving Chinese rivals remains to be seen.
If these reports hold true, fans may have to wait until 2027 to see real innovation in Samsung’s camera technology.
