Try out that 5x telephoto zoom.
The new Galaxy S24 Ultra has a very prominent camera array, so much so that most folks I show the phone to first remark on the five separate sensors on the back of the $1,300 phone. There are a few ways to get the most out of that new camera array, and one is to use the phone’s new photo preview function to see how a photo would look before it gets touched up with the AI assist.
The camera array now features a 5x optical zoom with the telephoto lens, which means you should be able to get more detailed shots at a longer distance. In practice, it’s not all it’s cracked up to be, but if you want to feel like the character in a spy movie taking a long-distance photo, then shouting “enhance” at your screen, Samsung’s latest phone might do it better than other devices currently on the market.
