Samsung’s new ISOCELL HP9 is the world’s first 200MP telephoto sensor for smartphones, and we could see it in the Galaxy S26 Ultra next year. Featuring 200 million 0.56-micrometer (μm) pixels in a 1/1.4-inch optical format.
Thanks to its proprietary high-refractive microlens featuring a new material, the HP9 significantly enhances light-gathering capability by directing more light accurately to the corresponding RGB color filter. What you end up with is more vivid color reproduction and improved focus offering 12% better light sensitivity as well as 10% improved autofocus contrast performance compared to its predecessor. HP9 is capable of 2x or 4x in-sensor zoom modes, achieving up to 12x zoom when paired with a 3x zoom telephoto module, all while maintaining crisp image quality.
