Samsung Galaxy devices that supports Astrophotography mode with Expert RAW
Astrophotography is Samsung’s one of the best photographic abilities of the Korean firm Samsung. It is basically a mode of Samsung’s incredible Expert RAW application that lets you capture images of the sky and moon. Previously, Expert RAW’s Astrophotography mode was limited to some top-notch Galaxy devices only, but now Samsung has expanded its availability. Let’s know which Galaxy devices have it.
Informatively, the Korean firm has recently made Expert RAW’s Astrophotography mode available for the Galaxy S21 series devices. Not only that, but last week the Galaxy Z Fold 4 device also got its support with Expert RAW version 2.0.09.1. Previously, the Galaxy S23 flagship member was the only one to have this Astro mode in it, but then Samsung announced other Galaxy devices, which are lined up to get it in the future.
All those devices that are eligible for Expert RAW’s Astrophotography mode are listed below.
- Galaxy S23 series (Already have)
- Galaxy S22 series (Already have)
- Galaxy S21 series (Recently received)
- Galaxy Z Fold 4 (Recently received)
- Galaxy S20 series
- Galaxy Note 20 series
Nota bene, the Galaxy S20 series devices (S20, S20+, and S20 Ultra) and the Galaxy Note20 devices (Note 20 and Note 20 Ultra) haven’t received the Astro mode yet, but we are expecting that the company will soon launch an update for these as well, which will bring the in-question Astro mode to them.
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is next in line to debut in early 2025 and is expected to feature a 3000 nits OLED display.
Samsung is all set to debut its sixth-generation foldable smartphone with the Galaxy Watch 7 series and the Galaxy Ring at the Galaxy Unpacked event in July. On another note, it is setting up to expand its flagship S series by introducing the Galaxy S25 series, which includes three variants: Ultra, Plus, and Base.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Could Reportedly Bring 3000 Nits OLED Display
Now the reports are reporting that the Galaxy S25 Ultra could have a 3000 nits OLED display. Whereas its predecessor, the Galaxy S24 Ultra, features 2600 units of peak brightness panels, This means that the Galaxy S25 Ultra would arrive with 400 nits more as compared to the Galaxy S24 Ultra.
A post on X was shared by a tipster claiming that Samsung is gearing up to bring an upgraded display with 3000 nits of peak brightness to the Galaxy S25 Ultra. The rest of the two variants—the Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25 Plus—may use a similar panel with 2600 nits of brightness since the entire Galaxy S24 lineup features the same 2600 nits of peak brightness.
Apart from this, recently it has also been reported that the Galaxy S25 could bring a ‘Batter AI’ feature to upgrade battery performance. It is expected that the Galaxy S25 series will introduce a new design language. Samsung could use Nano Version 2 in the forthcoming Galaxy S25. It will be interesting to see what new novelties this series will bring.
Samsung debuted its Galaxy S24 Ultra as a flagship device and received immensely positive reviews all around. Despite being high-end, it has a few issues, and a tipster poked at it for false advertising.
Transparently, the Galaxy S24 Ultra brought dozens of novelties, but unfortunately, it had a few issues. Samsung didn’t care and fixed most of them with the initial software updates. But some issues are yet to be fixed, and a well-known popular tipster takes it as a golden opportunity and has called for a class action lawsuit against Samsung for false advertising.
A post on X shared by a tipster (via- SamMobile), unveiled that the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s screen feels grainy at low brightness levels, and Samsung has not acknowledged the issue yet, which seems quite disappointing. Not only this, but a tipster called Samsung a fraud just because of the grainy screen issue that created inconvenience for some units.
The smartphone’s camera has defective color shades, and its telephoto camera oversharpens things. The long-telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom on the phone has issues regarding hardware, creating white objects to “glow.” He may be referring to the potential issue of overexposing white or light-colored subjects. Apart from all this, he also claims that the outcome of the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s telephoto camera doesn’t match exactly what Samsung claims in the advertisement.
According to the tipster, the bottom loudspeaker of the phone has a design defect, and the S Pen slot appears crooked. But despite all of these issues, the Galaxy S24 series breaks the sales record of its predecessor. Regarding all these issues, the tipster has requested that American users not purchase the Galaxy S24 Ultra.
Samsung and Apple are two common brands that play a catfight to introduce new products and features to compete with each other. Now Apple will reportedly begin mass production of its first foldable iPhone in late 2026.
Apple is the toughest contender in the tech industry, but despite that, it has yet to introduce its first foldable device. Finally, it appears that Apple is conscious of debuting in the foldable market, as a report says Apple will begin mass production of its first foldable iPhone by the end of 2026.
On the other hand, Apple’s biggest rival, Samsung, is already about to debut its sixth-generation foldable phones, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. An admirable fact is that, after facing tough challenges in China, Samsung is leading the global foldable market. But once Apple debuts in the foldable market, the Korean giant will undoubtedly have to face more challenges and fight for a leading position in the foldable market.
The competition is getting savage, and its peak could be seen when the first foldable iPhone hits the market. It is being reported by a tipter that Apple is set to start mass production of a foldable iPhone. Although Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo previously revealed that the company could introduce a 20.3-inch MacBook with a foldable display in 2027,.
Display supply chain insider Ross Young also pointed out Apple’s development of a 20-inch foldable hybrid device, set for a 2026 or 2027 release. A well-reliable source, Mark Gurman, also stated that he was “exploring a dual-screen, foldable MacBook/iPad hybrid.” If the reports are to be believed, Apple has “accelerated” its work on foldable devices. It is also reported that Apple is exploring 7.9-inch and 8.3-inch screen sizes for a foldable iPhone.
