So what special features does the new Galaxy S6 camera have in store for photography fans? Among other things, PhoneArena details the Galaxy S6’s IR Detect White Balance for color correcting your pictures and videos, its use of optical image stabilization (OIS) technology to help take better low-light pictures, its fast-tracking auto-focus feature that will help you maintain the camera’s focus of objects that are on the move, its “wide-angle selfie” front-facing camera, and its quick launch feature that will let you open up your camera quickly in just 0.7 seconds.

All told, the Galaxy S6 looks like it packs the biggest bag of camera tricks of any Samsung phone yet released. This is particularly impressive since the Galaxy Note 4 has been widely acclaimed as having the best smartphone camera on the market right now.
