According to Samsung, the Tetracell technology merges four neighboring pixels so that the 3P9 can function as a 2.0μm image sensor for front-facing cameras, which can take brighter pictures in the low-lit environment. It also has phase detection auto-focus (PDAF) with doubled auto-focus agent density than that of conventional PDAF sensors.

Furthermore, it also has gyro-synchronizer that significantly stabilizes pictures and videos taken while in motion, which syncs frame exposure time from the sensor with movement data from the device’s gyroscope. So, once the data is synced, the mobile processor can simply adjust the frames based on movement.
