The Galaxy S22 series of smartphones initially received several camera improvements over the previous generation, most of which were implemented entirely in software. Now Samsung has announced that these chips will no longer be exclusive to the current flagships – they will be received by some older devices (though also premium series). It is reported by GSMArena.
Improved night portraits
- Galaxy S21, Galaxy S20 and Galaxy Note20 series, as well as Galaxy Z Fold3 and Z Fold2 smartphones.
This option allows you to use the telephoto camera (also used for taking portrait shots) when shooting at night – thanks to this, users can take photos with blurry backgrounds even at night.
Auto crop
- Galaxy S21 + S21 FE series, as well as Galaxy Z Flip 4G/5G, Galaxy Z Fold3 and Z Fold2 smartphones.

This technology zooms in or zooms out on the camera so that it captures up to 10 people in one frame (at a distance of up to 5 meters). The feature was already available on foldable smartphones, but the developers have improved it. But for the Galaxy S21 series, it is new.
Improved effects for video calls
- Galaxy S21 + S21 FE, Galaxy S20 + S20 FE and Galaxy Note 20 series, as well as Galaxy Z Flip 4G/5G, Galaxy Z Flip3, Z Fold3 and Z Fold2 smartphones.
- Later (in the first half of 2022), the option will become available for the Galaxy S10 + S10 Lite and Galaxy Note10 + Note10 Lite series.
The function is intended for third-party applications, it allows you to replace the background and control the microphone. Many popular services and messengers are supported, including Zoom and Microsoft Teams.
Automatic framing for video calls
- Galaxy S21 + S21 FE series, and Galaxy Z Flip 4G/5G, Z Fold3 and Z Fold2 smartphones.

The technology allows a smartphone to follow a person during a video call – the user can, for example, move around the room, and the camera will automatically zoom in and out.
Improved camera quality for third party apps
- Galaxy S21 + S21 FE series, as well as Galaxy Z Flip3 and Z Fold3 smartphones.
Advanced camera algorithms will be able to work not only in a standard application, but also in popular social networks, including TikTok, Snapchat and more.
Expert RAW and Pro mode for telephoto camera
- Smartphone Galaxy Z Fold3.
The Expert RAW multi-frame RAW app will be available for download from the Galaxy Store. But the standard camera application will update itself, its professional mode will be able to work when shooting with a telephoto camera.
