Galaxy S26 series to capture better photos with new noise reduction algorithm

Galaxy S26 series to capture better photos with new noise reduction algorithm

While major innovations are not expected in the camera hardware of the Samsung Galaxy S26 series, a new leak suggests that Samsung is making significant improvements on the software side. According to claims, the company will use a new noise reduction algorithm in the Galaxy S26 family to enhance photo quality.

New image processing system and 24 MP mode are coming

The information comes from Ice Universe, a reliable leaker known for their posts on the X platform. According to the source, the Galaxy S26 series will feature an updated image processing system that eliminates "banding" or tone transition errors, especially visible in large, monochromatic areas like the sky. This could make blue skies appear smoother and more uniform, meaning less distortion and artificiality in color transitions.

Furthermore, the rumored 24 MP shooting mode is back in the spotlight. This mode is expected to offer a higher level of detail in photos. Previous claims also suggested that Samsung would introduce a new 24 MP option that balances the 12 MP default shooting with a full-resolution mode. If the new noise reduction system comes with this feature, it might be possible to achieve cleaner and more natural results in 24 MP mode.

Of course, the accuracy of all these claims will become clear when the Samsung Galaxy S26 series is officially unveiled on February 25th and real-world usage tests are conducted. While the new series might be a disappointment for those expecting major camera hardware changes, it could offer improved photo quality through more advanced software processing.
