What to expect?

If reports are to be believed, the Samsung Galaxy S11 can come with 120Hz display and is likely to be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chipset that is claimed to be 20 per cent faster at rendering graphics than the Snapdragon 855 that was used on the Galaxy S10. The company also plans to use an all-new ISOCELL Bright HM1 sensor which will shoot in 12-megapixel by stitching together 9 instead of 4 adjacent pixels.

This means that you will get a 108-megapixel primary camera on the Galaxy S11 series along with ultra-wide-angle lens and a periscope zoom lens. It will be interesting to see how many smartphones are eventually launched as part of the S11 series.
