Could Galaxy S27 Ultra Bring Zoom Camera Upgrades? New Leak Has Bad News

A trusted leaker says Samsung will keep the same 50MP 5x telephoto camera used in prior Ultra models, despite rumors of a new 4x sensor.

  • Ice Universe recently disputed rumors that Samsung would replace its zoom lenses, claiming the Galaxy S27 Ultra will retain the 1/2.52-inch 5x telephoto camera found in its predecessors.
  • Tipster claimed late last month that Samsung was testing a 50MP 4x sensor on the Galaxy S27 Ultra, while GalaxyFlash2025 echoed this claim early this month.
  • While Ice Universe did not mention the 3x camera this time, Korean outlet ETNews previously asserted the Galaxy S27 Ultra might lack a dedicated 3x shooter entirely.
  • For portrait and macro photography, Samsung currently relies on 3x cameras, creating uncertainty regarding whether removing this hardware without a high-resolution upgrade would limit versatility.
  • The Galaxy S27 Ultra will likely maintain the 50MP 5x camera architecture seen in the S24 Ultra, S25 Ultra, and S26 Ultra, despite earlier speculation about a major zoom overhaul.
