The Galaxy S6 could come with Samsung’s own 20MP camera

Rumors about Samsung’s upcoming flagship have been popping up like crazy this week. The latest such rumor claims that the Galaxy S6 will come equipped with a 20MP rear-facing camera with optical image stabilization that will be produced by the company’s own Samsung Electro-Mechanics (SEM) subsidiary.

Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S6 is a regular visitor to the rumor mill. This time, industry insiders from the Samsung Electro-Mechanics (SEM) subsidiary hint that the top-end smartphone will pack a 20MP main camera with optical image stabilization. Last year’s poor financial results of SEM were caused by the predominant market distribution of low-end camera modules with small profit margins. What’s interesting is that profits for this year are expected to be on the rise, thanks to the production of premium 16MP and 20MP OIS camera modules. We haven’t seen Samsung make a 20MP stabilized camera yet, but who would be more likely to rock it, if not the upcoming flagship.
