Another notable change is the camera boost: the primary camera jumps to 200-megapixels (up from 50-megapixel) with optical image stabilization support.

The rest of the camera setup remains the same with a 12-megapixel ultrawide plus 10-megapixel telephoto and two selfie cameras with a 10-megapixel at the cover screen and a 4-megapixel sensor hidden under the main display.

Its wireless charging also gets slightly faster at 15W (previously, 10W).
