What you need to know
- Samsung is said to be flirting with 24MP photos on the Galaxy S26, but unlike Apple, it won’t be the default — you’ll have to turn it on manually.
- The 24MP mode reportedly lives inside Good Lock’s Camera Assistant, not the main camera settings.
- Once enabled, 24MP shows up directly in Photo and Portrait modes, so you don’t have to jump between camera apps.
- Leaked benchmarks point to a faster Galaxy S26 Ultra overall, likely thanks to Qualcomm’s next-gen Snapdragon chip.
