Samsung's Galaxy S7 may take the Xperia Z5's best feature

Samsung is known to be working on a new 20MP ISOCELL sensor for the Galaxy S7, but the company has expressed an interest in Sony's new camera on the Xperia Z5 series.

Reports suggest Samsung is so impressed by the IMX300 sensor within the Xperia Z5 that it wants to include that in the Galaxy S7 camera as well.

Allegedly it won't ditch the ISOCELL, though. It may include different sensors in different regions and models of the phone, much like the processor set up on previous Galaxy handsets.
If you can't beat 'em...

Sony wants to keep that sensor exclusively for its Xperia range, but the company also sees how many phones Samsung sells. Having a sensor in each of those phones would be a great boost to Sony's camera business.

The Samsung Galaxy S6 features a 16MP sensor while the Sony Xperia Z5 series features a 23MP version.

According to the rumour, the new 20MP ISOCELL that Samsung is working on includes a new RWB colour pattern. It enhances light within the camera and should create some even better low-light shots than the Galaxy S6.
