Recent rumors surrounding the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra suggest that the company will address various camera issues with its upcoming flagship smartphone. The latest information, shared by the notable tipster Ice Universe on Weibo, indicates that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will have enhanced capabilities to minimize lens flare.
According to a machine translation of Ice Universe's post, the camera will incorporate "enhanced lens and coating technology," which aims to correct skin tone inaccuracies that may result in yellow hues in images.
Previous reports have indicated that the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra will be equipped with a 12MP front-facing camera (Sony IMX874) and a quad-camera setup on the rear. This rear unit will comprise a 200MP primary camera (ISOCELL HP2), a 50MP ultra-wide camera (Samsung JN3), a 50MP periscope telephoto camera (IMX854), and a 12MP telephoto camera (Samsung S5K3LD).

The HP2 sensor is the same that Samsung utilized in the Galaxy S25 Ultra, but there is a notable difference in specifications; while the S25 Ultra featured a primary camera with an f/1.7 aperture, the S26 Ultra is rumored to be equipped with an f/1.4 aperture.
