Below is an evolution of the Galaxy S Series and how it took smartphones to the next level:

Galaxy S

Samsung introduced the first Galaxy S Series smartphone in 2010. Even then, it made waves because it was considered one of the most powerful smartphones in the market. The first S in the Galaxy lineup came with an innovative 5MP camera with auto-focus, face detection, anti-shake, and more.

Samsung matched the success of its first smartphone with the launch of the Galaxy S2.

That is the equivalent of one smartphone every 1.5 seconds. This model came in a slimmer design and a bigger screen.

Samsung launched another innovation by adding the 10x Optical Zoom feature to the Galaxy S4 to let anyone zoom in to life’s important moments. The smartphone also came with other camera features, such as Dual Shot, which simultaneously shoots with the front and rear lenses to merge both photos, and Sound & Shot, which records audio with pictures.

The Galaxy S10 is completely redesigned to remove notches, distractions, and interruptions to make the Infinity Display even more immersive. Its multi-camera system comes with Wide Angle, Ultra Wide, Telephoto, Selfie, and RGB Depth lenses to capture the world the way users see it.

Samsung met the demand with the Galaxy S10’s improved Dynamic AMOLED screen and Infinity-O display, as well as the Exynos 9820 and 8GB of RAM for enhanced performance.

Samsung changed the way its customers captured moments with the Galaxy S20 line of smartphones. This massive leap forward in smartphone photography boasts a pro-grade multi-camera setup for the Galaxy S20 Ultra, with a 108MP Wide Angle lens and Space Zoom that can magnify images up to 100 times.
