Galaxy S22 and S22+ might use the same front camera again

Even though they are expected to be smaller, the Galaxy S22 and Galaxy S22 Plus or Pro are rumored to maintain several things, especially in the way they see. Maybe downgrade when it comes to batteries, but most of the internal is expected to be improved. However, there is a new detail that might disappoint a few, if these two models will actually come up with the camera sensor facing forward that has existed since the Galaxy S10 in 2019.

With the use of current video calls, both for work or socialization, many smartphone makers have emphasized greatly on increasing their selfie cameras. Many put a larger sensor on the forehead of their superior or at least boast an increase in algorithms and software. Instead, it seems that Samsung ignores the aspect of the smartphone, focusing on the main camera on the back side.

According to the latest GalaxyClub information, Galaxy S22 and S22 + will have a camera facing 10MP forward. It is different from the Galaxy S22 Ultra, which has been rumored to blow up the camera with a 40MP sensor, just like another ultra model before. Still, the 10MP figure has been around for four years now on all Samsung’s basic superior models.

However, it might be too simplified of the problem, because even the camera with the same megapixel number can have different specifications and performance. Factors such as lens aperture, autofocus technology, and pixel size can make or break camera performance. Not to mention improvements in computing photography, algorithms, and other image processing details.

That said, things might not look good for the Galaxy S22 on the front. Samsung has used the exact same front camera for the last two generations, starting with the Galaxy S20 last year. Given how it can try to reduce unnecessary costs from new components, it might be motivated to keep the same hardware for the seed next year too.
