50MP ultra wide camera is coming to the Galaxy S26+ model

Samsung, after introducing foldable phones, the eyes were turned to the Galaxy S series again. Leaks of the Galaxy S26 series, which is expected to introduce the company at the beginning of 2025, began to increase. Especially the camera information about the Galaxy S26+ model is among the remarkable developments. The new information shows that Samsung will go to a serious change on the camera side.

According to a report published by Winfuture, the internal code names of the Galaxy S26 family are also clear. The three models of the series are defined by NPA1, NPA2 and NPA3 codes. These codes correspond to Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+ and Galaxy S26 ultra, respectively. The abbreviation “NPA” means “Next Paradigm”, which means “new paradigm”.

The ultra wide angle camera offers 50MP resolution in the Galaxy S26+ model

The report draws attention to the model named NPA2. This model is thought to be S26+; However, there is a possibility of exiting the name S26 Edge. It is claimed that the device will come with a 50 -megapixel resolution ultra wide -angle camera. This camera will offer much higher details compared to the 12MP resolution sensor in the current Galaxy S25+.

The most remarkable part of the new ultra wide angle sensor is not only the resolution. Automatic focus feature is expected to take part in this camera. Thanks to this feature, especially in moving scenes and close -up of the wide angle shooting will be better focused. In addition, the possibility of 8K 30FPS video recording will be possible thanks to this sensor.

Information about the S26+ Telephoto Camera is not yet clear. However, the possibility of similarity with other models in the series is evaluated. The current information is that this model will receive a serious update on the camera side. Samsung’s model “Plus” instead of “Edge” instead of release to the market is also prominent in the report.

This means that Samsung can change the “Plus” model naming in the Galaxy S series. The company previously used the name Edge and identified the name with the curved screen. Nevertheless, since the design of the device has not yet been leaked, this name change may also indicate some design innovations other than the camera. In any case, beyond the change of name, the main remarkable element is the improvement in the camera system.

The information about the Galaxy S26 Ultra model is much clearer. This model suggests that 200MP main camera, 50MP ultra wide angle camera, 3x optical zoom 12MP telephoto and 50MP Telephoto Camera with 5x optical zoom. Thus, the senior model will have a versatile camera system. The Galaxy S26+ and the basic model are thought to be preferred.

According to expectations, the S26+ model can include a 50MP main camera with OIS support, automatic focused 50MP ultra wide angle camera, and a 50MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom. This configuration will offer the user not only a high resolution, but also a balancing video performance. In addition, 8K video recording with all three cameras will be a remarkable improvement in terms of content manufacturers.
