This confirms the rumor that first surfaced back in 2020 about the company’s plan. The image also shared by Samsung China during the Zoom Meeting looks very similar to the leaked image from last year.
For those that don’t know, a 600MP sensor will be the biggest in a smartphone yet. It might take up to 12% of the smartphone arear at the back. This sensor will also feature a massive 1/0.57-inch size. For context, this is way bigger than the Samsung’s 108MP sensor with a size of 1/1.3-inch and 0.8μm.

Looking to the future, Samsung says this ISOCELL sensor will provide solution to the Zoom or 4k/8k video trends. We all know that the more zoom into a photo, the more blur it becomes. With a 600MP sensor, Samsung hope this issue will be resolved.
But it’s very important to point out that there is no known chipset, processor or SoC that 600MP ready yet. Maybe the incoming Qualcomm Chip will have such feature. Or maybe Samsung will bring an Exynos chip to have support for this feature.
