Our team had the opportunity to spend some quality time with the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, and it’s safe to say that it offers some exciting features. One of the most impressive aspects is its new AI-powered ‘Quad Tele’ camera system, which we were able to test and capture some initial camera samples.
Before we dive into the samples, it’s important to note that these shots were taken on an impromptu basis and do not reflect a dedicated testing process. We are reserving our critical judgment for the full review where we will have photos captured in controlled environments.
Unlike its predecessors, the Galaxy S24 Ultra features a 3x + 5x camera setup, moving away from the previously used 3x + 10x configuration. The new 5x camera boasts a larger 1/2.6-inch sensor, which Samsung claims will be capable of capturing the same high-quality 10x photos as the dedicated zoom unit it has replaced.
The 50MP 5x telephoto camera features a 2x wider OIS angle and 1.6x larger pixels compared to the 10MP 10X telephoto. Additionally, it is powered by the formidable AI-provision of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, including the ProVision Engine, which is designed to deliver superior noise performance and image characteristics.
Here is a demonstration showcasing the impressive range offered by the Galaxy S24 Ultra – from 0.6x at the ultrawide end all the way to 100x.
Another scene was captured to showcase the capabilities of the new zoom camera at 1x, 3x, 5x, and 10x.
