Galaxy S6 uses two different camera sensors...Sony and samsung

According to xda forums users of Galaxy S6 have reported that they dont have the sony IMX240 camera sensor.
Instead they have the Samsung isocell sensor.
you can check by dialing *#34971539#

Can you link the thread on XDA?

Dialing that code doesn't work on Verizon.

How do you know if you have Sony? Mine was made in the ROK.

Once you get the below screen pulled up on your phone, tap the "ISP VER CHECK" line and the little notification pops up at the bottom.


Sony sensor in the rear camera for me ...

Sony for me.

I dialed the code but how do you know what version it is? How can you tell from the numbers?

Nvm I figured it out
Mine is using Sony....I'm guessing the U.S. variants will be using the Sony one

What's this mean?

Mine says the same thing. I also would like to know.
Edit: nevermind I was pressing the wrong button. My phone has the Samsung sensor.

There were comparisons posted on XDA S6 Camera Thread, it turns out Sony exceeds but not really that much of difference.

How can us Verizon folk determine what we have? The fancy dial code doesn't work for us.

Has it been determined if this is completely random or if certain carrier or region phones have the different lenses?

Most of us would never have even noticed or cared but now that it's been pointed out it is a mental thing.
