It looks like Samsung may be taking a quality-over-quantity approach on some of its upcoming phones, as a report suggests the Galaxy A54, Galaxy A34, and Galaxy A24 will all have one less lens than their predecessors.
Specifically, TheElec claims that none of these phones have depth sensors, so the Samsung Galaxy A53, Galaxy A33, and Galaxy A23 all feature triple-lens camera configurations.
That’s good news, because while decent depth sensors aren’t a complete waste of time, those on budget and mid-range phones tend to be full fillers, with little addition to the camera’s performance at all.
Of course, it wouldn’t be great if Samsung removed the depth sensor but kept everything else the same, but according to this report, the company will focus on beefing up its core camera offering. So presumably the money saved by not including the depth sensor will be poured into other lenses or sensors.
Speaking of which, apparently the Samsung Galaxy A54 will feature a 50MP main camera, a 5MP ultra-wide, and a 5MP macro camera, while the Galaxy A34 is said to have a 48MP main camera, an 8MP ultra-wide, and a 5MP macro. Finally, the Galaxy A24 is said to feature a 50MP main camera, an 8MP ultra-wide, and a 5MP macro.
In terms of megapixel counts, if that’s correct, the Samsung Galaxy A24 will be oddly at its best, though it’s probably the cheapest of these phones, and the most premium — the Galaxy A54 — is reported to be in total Minimum of megapixels.
But that just goes to show that megapixels aren’t everything. If so, Apple’s 12MP phone wouldn’t continue to be among the best camera phones. As well as potentially leading to camera improvements, ditching the depth sensor could also reduce costs — although it remains to be seen whether those savings will be passed on to consumers.
As for when the phones will be available, the Samsung Galaxy A34 will apparently land in March, while the Galaxy A54 is said to arrive in April. There’s no word on when the Samsung Galaxy A24 will launch, but the Galaxy A23 landed in March of this year, so it seems likely around March 2023.
