Samsung is rumored to be working on making the cameras in the upcoming Galaxy S26 series thinner by using inkjet printing with matte ink to replace the film inside each lens module.
The use of ink, which is thinner than the current film, is expected to reduce the thickness of the camera bumps in the Galaxy S26 series, although the exact extent of the reduction is not specified.
Samsung recently released the Galaxy S25 Edge focusing on thinness, and Apple is set to enter the market with its rumored iPhone 17 Air in the fall.
The news comes from a Korean source, suggesting that the Galaxy S26 series may feature slightly thinner cameras due to the innovative inkjet printing technology being employed.
