Galaxy S21 Users Rejoice as Snapchat Introduces Ultrawide and Zoom Camera Features
Samsung is actively participating in a new change that can improve its Galaxy device’s functionality. Like last year, the Korean giant has partnered with three social media giants to improve the quality of photos taken with its in-built camera. Now, finally, the results of the partnership are coming up with a new update for Snapchat.
Snapchat now supports Ultrawide and Zoom camera support for the Galaxy S21.
According to a Reddit user, he found that Snapchat finally supports the native camera function, which means users will now get the exact quality of photos that are usually clicked by the main camera of the Galaxy S21. He is also claiming that the Zoom and UltraWide functions of the camera are working quite well.
According to the information, the integration is coming with the latest update of Snapchat, which is available with version number 12.43.0.56. After installing this update, users will be able to use the functions of the camera. To take an ultrawide photo on Snapchat, you just need to do the same pinch-pinch-out gesture on the screen, or you can also click on the 0.6x button, present just above the shutter button in Snapchat.
While taking Zoom photos, there is no difference from the native camera, as your Galaxy S21 has a 10X telephoto lens, which will benefit Snapchat users to get more zoom photos, while earlier Snapchat users only got 3X zoom.
So to get all the new features in Snapchat, you need to update it to a new version. Users can easily find it on the Google Play Store. It is also expected that you will also get better night photos because Snapchat will also have the ability to use night mode with native camera processing.
Samsung has kept the same battery capacity for the flagship devices while also sticking to the same fast charging speed. If we look at the Galaxy S Ultra devices from the Galaxy S22 Ultra, the company has stuck with 45 W charging and the same 5000 mAh battery. According to the latest report, the Galaxy S25 Ultra may also use the same battery and specifications.
Previous, it was rumored that the Galaxy S24 Ultra could be equipped with stacked battery technology, which could lead to maximizing the component cost, but now, according to an X user named Sawyer Galox, it is reported that the Korean giant will skip this hardware change on the upcoming Galaxy S25 Ultra to save on component cost.
Along with this, the tipster also expressed his disappointment with Samsung’s take on the unchained hardware. He adds that users who want to buy the upcoming Galaxy S25 Ultra should keep their expectations low with the battery performance, as Samsung will keep the specs the same with the 500mAh battery and the 45W.
However, the company will also introduce its latest device with new chipsets that may provide improved optimization, which may provide some long-lasting battery life, but it will not provide any improvement in charging.
Samsung is preparing to introduce its next-generation foldable device, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. However, given that the new smartphones in the Z lineup typically launch between July and August, some rumors suggest that the company might host the next Galaxy Unpacked event on July 10, 2024. Despite the date being more than three months away, numerous details have surfaced online.
According to recent reports, Samsung plans to implement its dual chipset strategy for the foldable, mirroring the Galaxy S series lineup, where some models of the Galaxy S base and Galaxy S+ devices feature Snapdragon, while in other markets, they feature Exynos.
The next foldable lineup rumoured to come with multiple chipsets; for example, the Galaxy Z Flip 6’s last Geekbench listing showed that it has the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip. However, this processor is already one year old, so there are fewer expectations that it could be available in the main models. However, if a rumor proves to be accurate, it could potentially be available for the FE variant of the devices.
For your information, the rumors have revealed that Samsung could introduce two new versions of the foldable devices with the brand names ‘FE’ and ‘Ultra‘, so to make the difference, it may introduce them in separate chipsets. If it provides the older chipset for the FE version, then it will be successful in cost-cutting and releasing the device at a low cost.
Following the successful launch of the Galaxy S24 flagship device, several rumors have started circulating on the internet. Now, according to the latest development, there is a new listing coming in the highlight, which means the phone is under development and will be available on the market soon.
Some reports suggest that the Galaxy S24 FE, currently under development under the code name R12, could make its market debut in late 2024. Rumors suggest that the Galaxy S24 FE will initially be available in limited markets before potentially launching globally in 2024.
The Internet has also surfaced some rumored specs of the S24 FE, revealing several details about the device, including a 6.1-inch AMOLED display, 128 GB and 256 GB of RAM, and 12 GB of LPDDR5X RAM. It might have a 4500 mAh battery for power backup.
Samsung hasn’t officially revealed anything about the Galaxy S24 FE’s features or release date yet. However, a listing in a UK carrier database suggests this phone – known for offering flagship specs at a lower price – is coming soon.
