It looks like the battery isn’t the only disappointing part about the Galaxy S6. While previous rumors claimed that Samsung’s latest flagship would come equipped with a homemade 20-megapixel camera, new reports suggest that it will only be 16-megapixels. While that’s still impressive, it’s still a bit disappointing compared to what previous rumors suggested.

Every flagship smartphone goes through various revisions before the final version hits retail, and for a major smartphone like the Galaxy S6, the number of prototypes is often high. We reported on the S6′s camera earlier this month based on info we received about one of the prototypes of the device, with this particular prototype featuring a 20-megapixel Samsung-made camera sensor on the back. Rumors about the Galaxy S6 have been rather uncertain about whether it will have a 16 or 20MP camera, and we can now confirm that the device will come with a 16MP camera on the final retail unit. The camera sensor will be the Sony IMX240, the same sensor used on the Galaxy Note 4, though according to our insider Samsung has made considerable tweaks to the camera lens and the software. We have talked about the software part in our camera exclusive, but it’s yet to be ascertained what enhancements were made to the camera lens.
