Samsung to drop Macro Camera for Telephoto Lens -Galaxy A57

Samsung to soon launch its next budget smartphone. As per the rumor and information, the company might introduce the Galaxy A57 in early 2026. It may feature a significant camera redesign.

The company is considering removing the unpopular macro camera. This change would improve the phone’s overall value.

The Case for a Telephoto Camera Upgrade

The macro camera on current Galaxy A-series phones is often criticized. It is frequently described as a gimmick. Users typically try it once and then forget it exists.

A telephoto lens would be a much more practical replacement. It allows for clear, high-quality photos of distant subjects. This feature is common on premium phones but rare in the budget segment.

Samsung previously included a telephoto camera on the Galaxy A72. That model was well-received for its versatility. The company has not repeated that successful formula in recent years.

The Honest Dual-Camera Alternative

If Samsung can’t add a telephoto lens, there’s another good choice. The company could use two cameras instead of three. This means getting rid of the macro camera completely. The phone would just use its main camera and ultra-wide camera.

This would be a more honest way to sell the phone. Samsung wouldn’t need to use a poor-quality camera just to say “triple camera system.” Buyers would know exactly what they’re getting.

Samsung could save money by doing this. The company could either make the phone cheaper or use that money to improve other parts. A better battery or faster processor would help people more in their daily use.

The new Samsung Galaxy A57 could change how budget phones are made. Instead of focusing on how many cameras there are, Samsung could focus on features people actually use. This would make the Galaxy A57 a smarter choice for regular users.

Samsung is all set to introduce the Galaxy S26 series early next year. Now, it looks like Samsung’s own One UI 8.5 software includes renders of the new Android flagships.

As per the renders, the first render shows a phone with the codenames M1 and M2, while the second image shows a phone with the codename M3. Previous leaks confirm that M1 and M2 apply to the base Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26 Plus. Meanwhile, the M3 codename has been linked to the Galaxy S26 Ultra.

The renders also seem to suggest that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will indeed have slightly rounder corners. Then again, these renders spotted in leaked One UI 8.5 are crude enough that they don’t even represent the LED flash, so take the accuracy of the finer details with a pinch of salt.

Like the Galaxy S26’s design, which is a refinement of the current S25 series aesthetic, the upcoming One UI 8.5 update is a refinement of the existing One UI 8.0 firmware. They’re both based on Android 16.
