Samsung rolled out a Camera update for the Galaxy S22 series back in October last year which brought a cool new Astrophoto mode.
The feature remained exclusive to the S22 models, but things might change soon.
A mod responsible for Camera-related queries on the Korean community forum claims that Astrophotography mode will be brought to the Galaxy S21, Note 20, and other older models.
Astrophoto mode is a game-changer for amateur and professional photographers alike. With this feature, users can capture the beauty of the night sky in stunning detail, capturing celestial bodies and stars with clarity.
Naturally, users with other Samsung flagships such as the S21 and the Note 20 felt left out of the party.
But with the mod’s confirmation, it’s highly likely we’ll see the new Astrophotography feature make its way over to the Samsung Galaxy S21, Note 20, and a few other models soon.
One UI 5.1 is around the corner so who knows, maybe Samsung’s planning to throw in Astrophoto mode along with it.
But that’s not all. The mod also claims that Samsung could bring the Auto FPS feature to other models as well.
However, it still needs further testing, and plans to bring the feature to older models may be axed if it fails to live up to expectations.
Auto FPS allows users to capture smoother and more detailed video footage, which is especially useful when filming fast-moving objects.
It adjusts the frames per second rate according to the movement of the subject being filmed, ensuring that the footage is sharp and smooth.
That said, we’d still take this information with a grain of salt and wait for the update to begin rolling out first.
Moreover, Samsung could even decide to release the feature at some other date via an update to the Camera app.
Until then, watch this space for more as we will update it with further developments whenever they drop.
