Recently, the foreign website PhoneArena leaked Samsung Galaxy S7 The internal PPT of Samsung once again revealed and confirmed the new flagship information that Samsung will release:
The corner transition of the fuselage is enlarged, becoming more like that of the year Galaxy S4 ;
The screen maintains a 5.1 inch 2K level, Exynos 8890 / Snapdragon 820 Processor+4GB memory;
The machine adopts a new type of 12 million pixels BRITECELL sensor, but failed to confirm whether the 1/2 inch super bottom sensor was rumored before.
Appearance information leaked before
Samsung announced on the investor forum in November 2015 BRITECELL sensor The design is mainly to compress the sensor thickness and improve the low light/night view performance:
Unit pixels from IMX214 The conventional 1.12 μ m of the sensor is reduced to 1.0 μ m. With the same 16 million pixels, the BRITECELL sensor module can reduce the height by 17%, nearly 1mm thinner than the ISOCELL sensor, reducing the problem of the rear camera protruding from the phone;
The BRITECELL sensor no longer uses the traditional Bayer color filter array. It improves the amount of light input by replacing the previous green pixels with white pixels, and supports the WDR wide dynamic and phase detection auto focusing technology to improve the weak light effect and focusing speed again.
Relevant details of BRITECELL sensor
The BRITECELL sensor first appeared on the full Netcom version of Hongmi Note3. The camera model of the latter is S5K3P3, and the unit pixel size is also 1.0 μ m, but the pixel size is 16 million pixels. In the ongoing evaluation, we found that S5K3P3 showed excellent discrimination under sunlight/strong light, but weak discrimination under weak light. Although this and Hongmi Note3 All Netcom Version It is not related to optical anti shake, but it seems that the new sub-pixel array fails to smooth the backset caused by the reduction of unit pixel size.
If S7 uses 12 million pixels The BRITECELL sensor also has a unit pixel size of only 1.0 μ m, and its actual performance may not surpass that of the previous generation. However, considering that S7 may still have a convex camera and its sensor size is estimated to be relatively large, it is still possible to use a large area BRITECELL sensor.
In terms of release time, the leaked news was that the United States was on March 11, and the PPT leaked by China Mobile in China also showed that it would be sold in March.
