Samsung is developing an impressive 440MP image sensor

New information circulating on social networks shows the development process of four new imaging sensors by Samsung. In fact, South Korea is preparing new sensors for 50 megapixelAnd 200 megapixelsAnd 320 megapixels that it 440 megapixels.

The thing that inevitably sparks the most curiosity among tech enthusiasts is the latest 440MP sensor. However, it is a sensor that may not be used on any smartphone.

Samsung is preparing four new image sensors

The information we are looking for now was posted by the user Revignus on the social network X. Here is a picture of the ongoing projects in Samsung’s photographic solutions development department.

Some of the advanced numbers are already quite impressive, most notably the HU1’s 440MP sensor. However, this component can never be used in a smartphone, believing that it is more valuable to the automotive industry and other industrial sectors.

We also have a 320MP sensor with more credibility for a possible application in a model from the Galaxy S line. Something that shouldn’t happen anytime soon, as the source said it would never hit the market before the launch of the Galaxy S26 Ultra.

Then we have a new generation of Samsung’s 200MP sensor, now codenamed HP7. It could be launched on the Galaxy S25 Ultra, however, high production costs could stake the event.

The 50 megapixel sensor with 1 inch will be the most important for South Korea

Samsung’s new 50MP sensor is still missing, perhaps the most important one for the South Korean company. All because it will be an inch in size, proving to be an excellent replacement for Sony and its IMX 989 sensor.

According to Revegnus, Samsung’s new 50MP GN6 sensor will be mostly used by Chinese brands. All because South Korea thinks it is too expensive to use their own equipment.

Revignus says the high cost of developing these four sensors may preclude their use in Samsung smartphones. A strange statement that contradicts his predictions of the implementation of 200 MP HP7 and 320 MP sensors in the next generations of Galaxy S Ultra.

This means that we have to be careful with advanced information about the following imaging sensors from Samsung. Let’s wait for more concrete data on these promising ingredients.
