The industry’s first 200-megapixel telephoto sensor for smartphones, Samsung releases 3 mobile image sensor products including ISOCELL HP9

News on June 27th, today (27th) Beijing time, Samsung released three new mobile image sensors designed for the main and secondary cameras of smartphones: ISOCELL HP9, ISOCELL GNJ and ISOCELL JN5.

The main information of the three sensors is summarized as follows:

ISOCELL HP9: The industry’s first 200-megapixel telephoto sensor for smartphones, using 1/1.4-inch optical specifications and built-in 200 million pixels of 0.56 micron (μm) size of pixels. Compared to the previous generation, the HP9 offers a 12% improvement in light sensitivity (based on a signal-to-noise ratio of 10) and a 10% improvement in autofocus contrast performance. It supports Tetra²pixel technology, which can combine 16 pixels (4x4) into a large 12-megapixel, 2.24μm size sensor. Officials say it can take clearer portrait photos even in dark environments.

ISOCELL GNJ is a dual-pixel sensor with 50 million 1.0 micron (μm) pixels in an optical format of 1/1.57 inches. It combines Dual Pixel technology with in-sensor zoom to deliver sharper footage in video mode and high-resolution images without artifacts or moiré in photo mode. The product features extremely low power consumption: 29% lower power consumption in preview mode and 34% lower power consumption in 4K 60fps video mode. Dual Pixel technology allows each pixel to house two photodiodes, allowing for fast, accurate autofocus (similar to how the human eye focuses) while capturing full-color information for fast focusing and maintaining image quality.

ISOCELL JN5 It uses a 1/2.76-inch optical format and has 50 million 0.64 micron (μm) pixels. According to officials, the sensor is characterized by a wide color range, excellent autofocus performance, and a consistent photo experience from all angles. It uses Dual Vertical Transmission Gate (Dual VTG) technology to increase the charge transmission within the pixel, which can greatly reduce the noise in extremely weak light; the built-in hardware Remosaic algorithm can increase the camera's shooting speed, while previewing and shooting modes Delay-free real-time zoom can be achieved at any time. Its ultra-thin optical format makes it highly versatile and can be used on both main and secondary cameras, including wide-angle, ultra-wide-angle, front-facing and telephoto cameras, ensuring a consistent photo experience from different angles.
