In order to make the phone take a farther shot, some manufacturers also added a long zoom lens to the phone.

Like the OPPO Reno 10x zoom version and the Huawei P30 Pro, which were launched earlier this year, both of them are mobile phones with long zoom functions, and they also provide full coverage of the camera’s common focal lengths on the phone.

In addition, through the higher quality digital algorithm, the mobile phone can achieve high-magnification zoom shooting in the absence of a telephoto lens, and the quality of the captured image is not bad. The Google Pixel 4 series is an example of high-quality long zoom through algorithms.

It can be seen that the performance of the mobile phone “zoom shooting” has been much stronger than before. With the popularity of high-pixel sensors, there should be more and more mobile phones with ultra-long-range zoom shooting in the future.

Now, Samsung is also interested in adding long-distance zoom to its new flagship. To match the name “Galaxy,” Samsung named their long zoom function “Space Zoom.”

Based on media Sammobile coverage, Samsung submitted an application for a new trademark to the EU Intellectual Property Office EUIPO on November 8. Learned from , Samsung’s new trademark is “Space Zoom”, which will appear on mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets, smart watches or other smart wearers to describe a zoom function that does not degrade image quality.

However, the trademark application file and Sammobile’s report did not mention the implementation of the zoom function. But according to the current mainstream solutions, Samsung should be in the “periscope telephoto lens” and “high pixel sensing.”Choose one of the two methods to achieve long-distance zoom.

In the previous report of Ai Faner, it was mentioned that the mobile phone can get a good telephoto effect after using the periscope telephoto lens, and the mobile phone will not be like the previous zoom phone or card machine. The same bloated. At the time, this was also a good solution.

However, the development cost of the periscope telephoto lens is relatively high. Although the whole structure is not bloated on the mobile phone, the mobile phone will inevitably be thicker. Therefore, we have not seen this feature popularization in this year’s flagship machine.

In contrast, with the popularity of high-pixel sensors, the performance of digital zoom has become stronger. Even if you only use a 48 megapixel mobile phone sensor to zoom in, the magnification will be much higher than the previous 12 million and 24 million pixels. If you use the algorithm to optimize, directly use high-pixel cropping and zooming to do long-distance zoom function, which can not only ensure the image quality, but also reduce the impact of the telephoto camera on the thickness of the mobile phone. The cost of use will also decrease, which is a balance. High program.

Plus, Samsung has launched 64 million pixels and 108 million pixel sensors. With its own image technology and algorithm optimization, it is not difficult to achieve multi-fold digital zoom through high-pixel sensors. Space Zoom should also be developed in this direction.

In addition, Sammobile predicts that Samsung will also use the camera with Space Zoom zoom.The application was renamed “Hubble” and the concept should come from the Hubble Space Telescope.

This Space Zoom will be placed on any Samsung model, and there is no further information. Sammobile expects Samsung to launch this feature on the flagship Galaxy S11 series released early next year.

▲ Samsung Galaxy A9s

This speculation is reasonable, but according to Samsung’s two-year rule, they may also put new features on the Galaxy A series to test the water, and then apply it to the flagship, like the four-camera system of the year. Infinity-O screen, Samsung is the first launch on the Galaxy A series.

If you want to use Space Zoom and Hubble on Galaxy A this time, that’s not a strange thing.
