Samsung Galaxy S6 can be enjoyed for many reasons, and one of the biggest advantages is a great camera. It turns out, however, that not all models of the Galaxy S6 will portray it as well.
In our big test of cameras in smartphones Samsung Galaxy S6 showed up with a very good side. His camera boasts a natural white balance, excellent responsiveness and speed, as well as best-in-class detail reproduction ratio to the amount of noise. Thanks to the Samsung Galaxy S6 currently has the best camera of smartphones. Interestingly, a week after our comparison to the same conclusions reached DxOMark service. It is a pity that neither we nor testers with DxO, we were not informed about the fact that …
Samsung to Samsung uneven.
Users forum XDA discovered by accident that different models of Galaxy S -szóstek have … different arrays of cameras. We are talking about the main camera, located on the rear panel. Part of the models is equipped with the Sony Exmor matrix, and part of the sensor ISOCELL Samsung. This state of affairs applies to both the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 version of its curved edge.
Transmitter, next to the lens, is the most important and absolutely crucial element of the camera. Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that the Samsung Galaxy S6 is available in two versions differing in camera.
What does this mean in practice?
The differences between the matrices are not large, but under certain conditions They are visible to the naked eye. Sensor Sony IMX240 indication of the code, generates a slightly warmer picture with more vibrant colors. In situations where there is enough light, the matrix Sony better maps the white balance. And in difficult lighting conditions the situation is the opposite – it ISOCELL Samsung gives you a more natural colors.

The light-sensitive sensors are technologically very advanced camera features. Here each, even the smallest change is noticeable. Just to give an example Sony matrices, which are assembled in more than 40% of the camera in the world. Although the SLR Sony, Nikon and Pentax use the exact same transducers Sony, the cameras each producer illustrate in a different way. The differences relate to color reproduction, sharpness and maintain control over the noise. Everything is guilty of other software dies.
As you can see, even with the same driver, it is difficult to obtain the same image quality. In the case of sensors of different companies perfect alignment apparatus is virtually impossible. Certainly it can be said that between cameras there are any differences. Perhaps small, perhaps visible only under specific conditions, but still.
The use of different matrices by Samsung is so unfair practice. It is as if some models have a different processors or other screens, and the manufacturer “forgot” to inform.
to comment on the matter asked Olaf Krynicki, spokesperson for Samsung. Here is his answer:
The Galaxy S6 and S6 edge use stencils for cameras with several factories and from several manufacturers. Like any component or technology used in our devices, all dies are rigorously tested for compatibility with the device, production quality and superior performance.
Several questions remain unanswered
We were unable to obtain information as to whether the Samsung Galaxy S6 sold in Poland are equipped with one type of dies, or we market both types of sensors. Neither do we know what is the case in Europe. Therefore, one must reckon with the fact that cameras in two different models of Samsung Galaxy S6 may give slightly different results.

If you have a Samsung Galaxy S6, you can check matrix into which is fitted. For this purpose, the communicator, enter the code “* # 34971539 #”. You do not have to press the green phone, you should immediately see a menu with information on the camera. Some operators may block this code.
It is said that the ability to choose a big advantage. It is a pity that in this case the choice is made unconsciously.
