New leak suggests Galaxy S27 Ultra’s 200MP main camera might not be boring after all

• A leaker has claimed that Samsung is testing a 200MP main camera with a variable-aperture lens.
• This would enable more granular control over depth-of-field effects and light capture.
• A variable-aperture 200MP main camera could also excel at macro photography.

Samsung debuted a 200MP main camera on its smartphones back in 2023, and the Galaxy S26 Ultra maintains the same fundamental 200MP primary camera. However, it now sounds like the Galaxy S27 Ultra could get a major upgrade to its 200MP shooter.

Weibo leaker Smart Pikachu asserts that Samsung (and HUAWEI) are both testing 200MP main cameras with variable apertures. Check out the machine-translated screenshot below.
