Galaxy S27 Ultra Wishlist Targets 3 Camera Fixes and Qi2-Friendly Redesign
3 articles · Updated · Android Authority · Jul 1
Summary
Three changes top the Galaxy S27 Ultra wishlist: better close-up focus in low light, removal or overhaul of the 3x telephoto camera, and a camera redesign that works cleanly with Qi2 magnetic accessories.
Samsung’s current Galaxy S26 Ultra struggles to focus on dark subjects at close range, and its macro button appears only when the phone detects proximity—something the author says it often fails to do.
The 3x telephoto lens is described as redundant because Samsung’s 200MP main sensor often delivers better 3x crops, while the dedicated 3x hardware has changed little since the Galaxy S21 Ultra.
Qi2 cases also expose a design problem: magnetic accessories can catch on the 5x camera housing, causing blurry photos and charging issues, prompting calls for a new camera layout.
Outside those complaints, the S26 Ultra is praised for strong battery life, 60W charging, performance and One UI, suggesting Samsung needs targeted fixes rather than a full overhaul.
