The Camera of the Galaxy S20 will Feature Super ISO Technology

In less than two weeks we will attend the launch of the best Samsung phones for this new year. The Samsung Unpacked event where the new Galaxy S20 will be shown is set for February 11, 2020 and will be then when we know all the changes at the level of hardware, software and design that will present the 3 models that we hope to know next month.

As usual, the brand is especially concerned about improving the camera department of its phones and beyond adding new sensors in the Samsung Galaxy S20, S20 Plus and S20 Ultra, this year the brand will present a new Samsung Super ISO technology. As its name implies, it will affect the ISO performance of the photographs, allowing it to increase its level without affecting the image noise.camera-s20

How does the ISO of our phones affect

Although the ISO sensitivity comes from the world of celluloid, reference is made in photography to determine the “sensitivity” of the sensor towards a light source. Increasing the ISO sensitivity increases the electrical current emitted by the sensor photocells to increase the collected light, generating noise in the darkest areas as a counterpart.

Now the UK Intellectual Property Office has registered, at Samsung’s request, the name Super ISO. The description of the trademark contains terms of “camera sensor for smartphones; image sensor for video cameras and computer software to process digital images ” . This means that the safest thing is that the Galaxy S20 series will have an improved image sensor.

ISO in Samsung

The new sensors will be better in terms of light sensitivity range than their previous iterations. Making memory we can verify how the Galaxy S10 worked with an ISO range of 50 – 800 that subsequently rose to 3200. According to the Ice Universe leakster these values in the Galaxy S20 would enter the ISO 6400 range, double the current generation.

Unfortunately, the exact specifications of the cameras of the Samsung Galaxy S20 range are unknown for now but we have barely a few days to go out of doubt.

Huawei already did something similar

With the aim of making its smartphone the smartphone with the best camera on the market, Huawei endowed the P30 Pro with a sensitivity that reaches the staggering ISO 409600. This undoubtedly improves and greatly captures the capture of night photographs. Since then, the Chinese firm boasts the most sensitive sensor present in the market.
