A very authoritative network insider under the nickname Ice Universe announced in April this year that Samsung will release sensors with a resolution of 600 megapixels in the future; which will surpass the capabilities of the human eye. Now, the insider has confirmed that such a sensor is indeed already in development.

This insider has repeatedly confirmed that he has contacts in the development department of the South Korean company; he was the first to publish real images of the Galaxy S20 and many other reliable information, so his words are definitely worth listening to.

This image shows what a 600-megapixel camera could be on a smartphone if Samsung doesn’t fundamentally change the technology. In this case, the camera alone will occupy 12% of the rear panel area, and the camera unit will protrude 22 mm above the back panel of the smartphone. Of course, that would be extremely inconvenient, so it will be very interesting to see how Samsung implements such a high resolution in the next generation ISOCELL sensor.
