Believe-it-or-not, Samsung Galaxy S10 will have 5 cameras
According to reports, Samsung Galaxy S10 is expected to come in three variants and the top variant, which will succeed the Galaxy S9+, will come with a triple camera setup. And now, the latest leak suggests the high-end Samsung Galaxy S10 will also sport a dual camera setup on the front, making it a total of 5 cameras. Here's everything we know about it.
First off, why is Samsung opting for dual front cameras?
Primarily, it's all about good-quality photos as dual cameras on S10 will offer a nuanced bokeh effect to the selfies, thanks to better optics. Secondly, Samsung could also use the second camera to improve facial recognition, considering the company is working on 3D face scanning as well. Lastly, the Korean tech giant can also leverage this second camera for its augmented reality-based emojis.
Further, Galaxy 10 will be offered in three different variants
Notably, previous reports had suggested that Samsung will offer three variants of its upcoming anniversary edition flagship. Firstly, there's a Galaxy S10+ (codenamed Beyond 2) which will succeed the Samsung Galaxy 9+ and pack high-tech stuff. Then, you have Galaxy S10 (codenamed Beyond 1) and lastly, a new cheaper entrant with trimmed down specs which is codenamed Beyond 0.
Everything we know about the Galaxy S10+ (Beyond 2)
A report by AllAboutSamsung states that S10+ is expected to get a triple camera setup comprising a 12-MP main sensor with f/1.5-f/2.4 variable aperture, positioned in the middle. On the right of the main sensor, will be a 16-MP super-wide-angle lens (123-degrees) with f/1.9 aperture (without Autofocus and OIS), and a zoom lens (on the left) with a 13-MP sensor and f/2.4 aperture.
What else do we know about the Galaxy S10 variants?
Furthermore, the two premium variants (Beyond 1 and Beyond 2) will reportedly get in-display fingerprint scanners, something Samsung has been working on for a while now. The low-end Beyond 0 device is expected to come with a side-mounted fingerprint scanner. Moreover, Samsung is also working to incorporate the in-trend 3D face unlock, possibly for the high-end variants.
Samsung Galaxy S10 will be the company's fastest smartphone ever
Finally, reputed tipster Ice Universe estimates that S10 will be a 5G phone and will feature a chipset tuned for artificial intelligence (CPU, GPU and neural processing unit). He further stated that S10 will come with super-fast UFS 3.0 storage, LPDDR5 RAM, 93 percent or more screen-to-body ratio, 9th-generation Super AMOLED display, 3D AI processing in the camera app and a bigger L-shaped battery.
