Forget Galaxy S25 Ultra — Samsung reportedly developing 500MP camera sensor

Samsung is working hard on the Galaxy S25 series of phones, but that doesn't mean the company isn't preparing for the S26 and beyond. A new rumor suggests photographers might want to hold off on the Galaxy S25 phones in favor of a later model, as the company could include an impressive 500MP sensor.

The leak comes from the reliable Jukanlosreve on X. In the post, they claim that Samsung is already working on a high-resolution camera sensor that could be the primary shooter on a future phone. "Samsung is working on a 3-layer stacked image sensor for Apple, while simultaneously developing a 500MP sensor for its own Galaxy devices," reads the X post.
