I am guessing the 100x Zoom Camera unit was extremely heavy in price and movement, and probably not worth the effort, since it added noticeably to the final price.

    that 100x zoom was pretty useless anyway
    it was just a marketing gimmick

      I thought it's 5x? Seriously who in the right mind would market it as 100x with only 3.5x optical zoom and let alone having only the 48mp for hybrid, instead of the 108mp. The person doing this marketing really ought to be sack.

          Hamed, 20 May 2020Actually Note 10 Lite is one of their really good phones. It's an updated Note 9. S-Pen + Go... moreThe chipset is absolute garbage. It's seriously underpowered even compared to $200 phones (ex. realme XT, Redmi Note 8 Pro, Vivo Z1 Pro).

          S10 Lite is much better. Its chipset is powerful, yet its camera setup is pretty good. It's a fine phone in my opinion.

            I really liked S20 Ultra(of course NOT its outrageous price points which never going to stick beyond couple of months) and it was really dazzling while Note series getting stale except for the S Pen more like an afterthought S series. Their EXYNOS editions are real sorry looking ones. Too bad Huawei is nowhere to be seen due to China!!

                The S20 Ultra never had 100x zoom to begin with. Not even 10x zoom. But if cropping is suddenly considered as zooming, them my phone has 100x Zoom, maybe more!

                  This could also means that no 10x optical Zoom will be available in Note 20, Bad news then...

                        Next step = S21/S30 with 50MP 1/1.3" instead of 108MP.

                        That is why Sony Semicon does not have 108MP. Neither does Omnivision.

                          Anonymous, 20 May 2020They realized quality is too low. 100x digital zoom = resolution/10.000 The 100x zoom if s20 ultra one of the best camera zoom only when you zoom till 10x.

                            the real question is - will be Samsung able to make a comeback in the next years, or is it only downhill from now on

                              NotAnOpinion, 20 May 2020So, the Galaxy S series is now the ultimate flagship out of Sammy's portfolio? Smdh!Note line for few people they like to use Spen, but not for everyone. I used to like note line back in the day and now don’t like it and prefer S line for less bloated software.

                                      Because no one care about it
                                      The quality is very low
                                      The trade-off which is the bulkiness doesn't feel worth it

                                        No problem. They'll find another thing from their marketing machine to advertise if they can't reach the Huawei quality with that zoom. Maybe some cheerleaders showing new fashion cases for their next phones without expandable memory due to some new reason/excuse...
