New leak pretty much confirms the Galaxy S21 Ultra's camera system

The Galaxy S21 and S21+ will have the same camera setup, while the S21 Ultra gets all the flashy tech.

What you need to know

Infographics detail some of the specs of Samsung's Galaxy S21 series.
The Galaxy S21 Ultra will come equipped with both a standard telephoto and periscopic lens.
Laser autofocus will only be present on the Galaxy S21 Ultra.

The Galaxy S21 series is less than two weeks from launch, so naturally, every detail about the phones should be leaked by then. The specs for the upcoming smartphones have been all but confirmed through various sources, and a new leak from Evan Blass corroborates what we can expect from the cameras.

The leaked infographics are in Italian, but it's not too hard to discern what they're saying. The Galaxy S21 and S21+ will feature the same triple camera setup with a 12MP f/1.8 main sensor, 12MP f/2.2 ultra-wide angle, and a 64MP f/2.0 telephoto sensor. As far as we can tell, this is largely the same setup from the S20 series, which isn't a bad thing as the Galaxy S20 was one of the most consistent and best Android cameras of 2020. There's also an LED flash on the rear and a 10MP f/2.2 punch-hole selfie camera at the front.

The Galaxy S21 Ultra is a little more interesting, as it will feature the upgraded 108MP f/1.8 main sensor, a 12MP f/2.2 ultra-wide, and not one but two 10MP telephoto sensors, one with an f/2.4 aperture and the other with an f/4.9 aperture. We expect the former to be the standard 3x telephoto sensor and the latter to be the 10x periscopic zoom lens. The Galaxy S21 Ultra will also feature a laser autofocus unit to replace last year's ToF sensor, and on the front will house a 40MP f/2.2 selfie shooter.

Leaks have done well to highlight the hardware on these new smartphones, but Samsung is known to throw in plenty of software tricks to show off their capabilities, such as "Space Zoom" and "Single Take", so it's unclear what might be in store for these new devices. They at least should be capable of 8K 30fps and 4K 60fps video capture, especially given the capabilities of the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset.

Samsung is set to announce the new devices at the Unpacked event on January 14th, with reservations already live in the U.S.

The hidden cost of food delivery

More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
