We know pretty much everything there is to know about the Samsung Galaxy S21 lineup at this point but Ice Universe is still giving away some small but important details about the devices. This time it's about the Galaxy S21 Ultra and why it might prove to be the best phone for telephoto shots.
The detailed specs of the 10x zoom camera are no longer a secret. It will use a best-in-class 10MP, 1/3.24" in size and with 1.22µm pixels. The lens features f/4.9 aperture, OIS and 240mm (10x) periscope telephoto zoom.
