Up to 200 MP camera and mmWave 5G
Seems like you won’t have to pay a fortune to buy high MP camera phones these days. The Exynos 1380 SoC supports cameras up to 200 MP. In theory, it will be equal in number to the one on Galaxy S23 Ultra. However, it is unlikely that Samsung will embed a flagship camera sensor with this chipset. Likewise, it supports video recording up to 4K@30fps.
5G is becoming more common among the smartphone these days and there’s no exception. The Exynos 1380 supports 5G connectivity with mmWave and sub-6 GHz bands which support download speeds up to 3.79 Gbps and upload speeds up to 1.28 Gbps.
