If the Galaxy S24 Ultra was entitled to a main sensor with similar characteristics to the S23 Ultra, it would be entitled to some optimizations to set it apart.

Early next year, Samsung is expected to launch its new ultra-high-end smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. As every year, a special focus will be placed on the photo performance of the device with numerous sensors. According to information from the leaker Ice Universe, the Korean manufacturer has decided to significantly improve its photo sensor.
In fact, in a tweet published on Friday, September 1, Ice Universe points out that the main camera of the Galaxy S24 Ultra will be equipped with an “optimized” photo sensor.

Similar features to the S23 Ultra sensor
“The main camera of the Galaxy S24 Ultra will use an HP2SX sensor with the same characteristics as the HP2: 200 Mpx, 1/1.3″, 0.6 μm.” It looks like an optimized version of the HP2.” He says According to the report, the sensor would have a resolution of 200 million pixels, a format of 1/1.3 inch and a side length of 0.6 μm. These have identical properties to the Samsung Isocell HP2 sensor, which is already used in the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. As a reminder, with this sensor you can run a lossless x4 hybrid zoom with 12.5 megapixel shots, take highly detailed 200 megapixel shots, or take standard brighter shots with better dynamic range and little digital noise by grouping 16 photosites together for 12.5 megapixel photos thanks to pixel binning.
We currently don’t know how the Isocell HP2SX sensor expected in the Galaxy S24 Ultra will be optimized in relation to the HP2 sensor. For example, it could be more effective for burst mode, for video recording or for autofocus.
Keep in mind that the Galaxy S24 Ultra should particularly benefit from the improvements to its sensor, linked to the x3 zoom and capable of taking lossless shots up to a x6 hybrid zoom. Samsung is reportedly working on a new 440-megapixel sensor, but that wouldn’t be expected until the Galaxy S25 Ultra, which is scheduled for early 2025.
The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is expected to be officially launched early next year, probably between January and March, like every year for Samsung.
