Samsung's Newly Patented Galaxy S30 Design Will Have 6 Moving Cameras

Camera-friendly

While there are some impressive cameras on smartphones out there, taking it up to six cameras that move and tilt individually is racking it up a notch, or two!

As per the patent, in order to be able to fit these six cameras on the back of the upcoming Galaxy S30 phone, Samsung would have to go horizontal. Placed in two rows of three, one camera above the other, they would all fit at the top of the phone's casing. 

It's a bit of an eery six-googly-eyed look, but, if it takes incredible photos, then why not?

Five out of the six cameras are wide-angled ones, either all the same or with one higher resolution "master" sensor. The sixth camera is a single telephoto camera. What's unique about them is that all of the cameras can tilt within their housing to offer exceptional angles. 

This would allow the user to create what the patent called a "pano-bokeh," meaning a panoramic shot with a blurred background. Other photo effects would easily be managed with this amount of moveable cameras, something that's still impossible to do with any other smartphone on the market. 

Then again, the cameras can all work as one entity to provide extremely well-focused, high-resolution, and high framerate images. Talk about catching any fast movement impeccably. 

We'll have to wait at least until 2021 for the Galaxy S30 to come out, though. With all that said and done, we can expect a number of exciting prospects from Galaxy in the upcoming decade.
