Galaxy S27 Ultra may get a 200MP rear camera with variable aperture

Samsung’s Galaxy S27 Ultra is still far from its official debut, but early leaks have already started to surface. A recent leak hinted at a redesigned rear camera module, and now, a tipster has shared fresh details about the phone’s primary camera sensor.

Tipster Smart Pikachu shared details about the Galaxy S27 Ultra’s primary camera on Weibo. According to the leak, Samsung is currently testing a 200MP main sensor with a variable aperture for its next-generation flagship.

Samsung last offered a variable aperture camera with the Samsung Galaxy S10 series. This technology allows the camera sensor to physically adjust its aperture based on lighting conditions, improving performance in both bright and low-light scenarios.

Interestingly, Apple is also rumored to offer a variable aperture rear camera on its upcoming iPhone 18 Pro series.

Recent leaks suggest that the Samsung Galaxy S27 Ultra may switch to a triple rear camera setup, potentially dropping the 3x telephoto camera that has been a staple of Ultra models in recent years. The 200MP main rear camera is also said to support LOFIC technology.
