Photo taken on Galaxy S20 Ultra's 108 megapixel camera of a couple sitting on a beach. The 108MP gives you incredible detail in your photos so you can pinch in again and again without losing clarity, and as we pinch in on the photo, we discover a scene of someone carrying a surfboard at the right angle to make it look like the person jumping off the cliff behind them is jumping onto the surfboard

108MP photography on the Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G gives you millions more pixels in each shot. Which means for the first time ever on a Galaxy, you can zoom in for details you'd never have seen before.
