Samsung's components division has become in one of the most profitable companies in the world. This division sells to practically all smartphone manufacturers any type of part or component that they may need and according to the latest news, it seems that it will also begin to sell their processors en masse.
But in addition, he is working on a new smartphone sensor. None of the 108 MP that some of its terminals already offer as well as other manufacturers such as Xiaomi, but we are talking about a new sensor with a resolution of 600 MP, a resolution that far exceeds the capabilities of the human eye.

When it seemed that the war to offer a greater number of MP in the cameras of smartphones, Samsung has been taking it again for a couple of years and as expected, by the big door. Last April, Ice Univerese, one of the leakers with the highest hit rate in recent years, stated that Samsung was contemplating the option of developing a 600 MP sensor.
Finally, and according to his contacts who are part of the Samsung development department, the Korean company has started working on this sensor, a sensor that, if it were currently integrated into any smartphone, would occupy 12% of the front, but also, it would protrude 2,2 cm at the back.
Obviously, this sensor still not ready to go to market, at least for telephony because of its large size, so we will probably have to wait a few years until it reaches the market.
The company is also likely to want enter the world of digital photography, a feasible but unlikely option, seeing how Sony, Panasonic, Canon and Nikon continue to reign in the market, although the latter have been overtaken by the first two in recent years.
