Phones with periscope cameras, such as the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, offer significant advantages in smartphone photography. Periscope lenses use a sequence of lenses and mirrors to bend light at a 90-degree angle, allowing for a longer lens to be fitted inside the phone without significantly increasing its thickness. These cameras provide optical zoom capabilities, enabling users to capture clear and detailed photos even at a distance. They are particularly beneficial for city dwellers, allowing them to appreciate architectural details and capture moments that might otherwise be missed. Periscope cameras also enhance regular photography by enabling better cropping and producing high-quality portrait mode shots.
Your phone can do more than just make calls and take pictures.

These features can be found in the accessibility settings and are useful for everyone.
