Smartphone manufacturers rarely change how rear cameras look from generation to generation. When they do, it makes news, like when the regular Apple iPhone 16 launched with a new vertical pill-shaped camera system last month. Now, Samsung is about to make a camera design change, this time on the upcoming Galaxy S25 Ultra.

According to Ice Universe, Samsung’s next flagship device will feature a camera design slightly similar to that of the Galaxy Z Fold 6. While this isn’t an earth-shattering change, it’s interesting nonetheless.

As you can see in the image below, the Galaxy S25 Ultra’s camera could take a page from the company’s current flagship foldable device, although it won’t look like it 100%. Instead, the lenses around the camera could be black and have concentric circles. The layout, however, will continue with the design found on the Galaxy S24 Ultra.

The Galaxy S25 Ultra is expected to have a 200MP primary camera, a 50MP ultrawide camera, and a 10MP telephoto camera. It is also likely to feature a 12MP selfie camera on the front.

The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is expected to sport a flat design on all sides instead of the curved edges found on the Galaxy S24 Ultra. September brought the first glimpse of the Galaxy S25 Ultra, revealing the design modifications.

Like the other phones in the Galaxy S25 series, the Galaxy S25 Ultra is expected to be one of the first to feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset and come with 16GB of RAM.

Samsung should announce its next Galaxy S phone lineup in January or February, with release dates to follow soon after.

Samsung may be ready to stretch the Galaxy line into stranger territory. Korean outlet Money Today reports that the company is developing a rollable Galaxy for a possible first-half 2028 launch, with Samsung Display in talks to supply the key OLED panel.

The timing couldn't be much messier. Samsung Display's foldable phone panel share reportedly fell behind BOE in the first quarter, even though Omdia expects a rebound tied to Samsung's next foldables later this year.

The developer describes it as a tool for giving photos a cleaner, more elegant look before sharing, with minimal frames, Polaroid-style frames, creative collage layouts, and themed frames for different moods and festivals.
