Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra leaks and news

We’ve heard enough information on the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra to necessitate a separate section on it.

The same source that provided the prior Galaxy S21 images also leaked renders of the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra, one of which you can see below.

This is shown with a curved screen of apparently around 6.7 to 6.9 inches, and a much larger camera block than the standard S21, housing four lenses and a flash.

The dimensions meanwhile are apparently around 165.1 x 75.6 x 8.9mm, and there’s a punch-hole selfie camera on the front, but no slot for an S Pen, despite some other leaks suggesting Samsung’s stylus might be supported.

Other leakers have speculated that the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra could support the stylus, but it may be that you have to buy an extra case to attach the accessory so it wouldn’t be available by default.

None of this is heavily rumored yet, but it’s an interesting idea to implement the stylus technology without everyone having to buy a stylus to use on their phone even if they don’t want it.

The screen size could actually be 6.8 inches, smaller than the 6.9 of the S20 Ultra, according to one leak. This leak also says the phone will have a 5,000mAh battery, 40MP front-facing camera and four rear snappers, with a 108MP main – all the same as the S20 Ultra.

That backs up earlier rumors that the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra will have a 108MP camera (just like the S20 Ultra) but with a new and likely improved image sensor.

Just after that yet another Samsung Galaxy S21 camera leak said the same thing. Apparently the device will have a 108MP main, 12MP ultra-wide and 40MP selfie camera, like the S21 Ultra, but with two zoom lenses instead of one, and no ToF sensor. These zoom cameras are said to facilitate 3x and 5x optical zooming.

The 108MP rumor has been repeated quite a few times, and some rumors say it could be an improved sensor to before.

Sounds like the S21 Ultra cameras are set in stone? Well, it might not be as simple as that. We’ve also heard that Samsung is working on a 150MP camera for smartphones that can combine nine pixels into one, for 16MP shots that can take in a lot of light.

We would however take this claim with a serious side of salt – it’s very early for S21 rumors, the source doesn’t have a track record, and even if Samsung is working on that camera, that doesn’t guarantee that we’ll see it in the Galaxy S21 range.

Having said that, the claim of a 150MP main snapper has since appeared again, with another source adding that it could be joined by a 64MP telephoto, 16MP ultra-wide, and 12MP macro snapper, plus a depth sensor, for five sensors in total. Though if this is accurate it’s probably more likely that the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra will have these specs.
