At the beginning of the month, insider Ice Universe reported that the Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim would feature an Ultra camera, but did not disclose further details. Now, another informant, Sanju Choudhary, claims to know the specific sensor specifications that will be used in this device. The Slim model is likely to replace the S25 FE.
The main camera of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim will have a 200 MP sensor - it will be the new ISOCELL HP5. According to the informant, its size will be 1/1.56 inches, although earlier reports suggested it would be 1/1.3 inches (the same size as the HP2 sensor found in the Galaxy S24 Ultra). This sensor was also mentioned in the context of the Galaxy Z Fold7.
The ultra-wide camera and telephoto module will be equipped with a 50 MP JN5 sensor (1/2.76 inches, with pixel size of 0.64 µm). Some sources suggest that the S25 Ultra may use the JN3 (with pixel size of 0.7 µm), but this is a minor difference. The distinction between the current Ultra and the Galaxy S25 Slim is that the latter will have only one telephoto lens.
Choudhary states that the telephoto module of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim will offer 3.5x optical zoom. The camera will likely utilize the All Lenses on Prism (ALoP) technology, which Samsung introduced just this week. This approach alters the traditional periscope design by placing lenses in front of the prism rather than behind it.
The main advantage of this layout is its compactness. ALoP modules are shorter and thinner compared to standard periscope designs, which will be a key feature of the Galaxy S25 Slim.
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim is expected to be released in the second half of 2025. If the device turns out to be popular, it could influence the design of the S26 series.
