Phones with Nightography Lite

Nightography is Samsung's umbrella name for the low-light capabilities of its Galaxy phones — not one mode, but night photo and night video together. Instead of one long exposure, the camera takes dozens of short frames in a burst, aligns them and merges them: blur from hand shake is discarded, real detail is reinforced by stacking. The result is a photo shot handheld in the dark that comes out bright and sharp.

The name has a video side too: night video, backed by large sensors and stabilization, aims to keep noise down in dim light. Because it is an umbrella marketing name, which capabilities are present varies by model; this page lists the models that carry it.

The "Lite" suffix marks a narrower version of the same umbrella name: on entry and mid-range models it means not all of the flagship's night capabilities are present. Which ones are included varies by model.
