I underestimated the Galaxy S25 Edge’s camera. Here’s why you shouldn’t
- The Galaxy S25 Edge boasts a 200MP main camera but lacks a telephoto, making it an unusual choice among models.
- Despite not having a telephoto, the phone offers a 2x 'optical quality' zoom through the main camera, providing natural-looking zoom photos.
- Critics view the omission of a true telephoto as a compromise, especially at the S25 Edge's price point of $1,100.
- The phone's slim design and limited space likely contributed to the absence of a telephoto camera.
- Initial tests of the 2x zoom on the S25 Edge showed promising results with good white balance and detail levels.
- Issues like haloing were observed in some photos taken with the 2x zoom, possibly dependent on lighting conditions and could be addressed in future software updates.
- Close-up shots, including capturing bees on blooms, demonstrated the camera's performance in focusing on small subjects effectively.
- The 3x digital zoom on the S25 Edge surprisingly delivered good quality photos with detail, colors, and depth of field.
- Underestimating the S25 Edge's camera capabilities, especially in the zoom mode, led to a positive reassessment of Samsung's optical zoom quality.
- Despite lacking a telephoto, the S25 Edge is praised for its portability, ergonomics, and innovative use of technology to address camera limitations.
