Samsung is following up its first mid-range phone with a 108MP camera with a new Galaxy M53 5G model that features a similar sensor.

Rather than an Exynos or Snapdragon processor, there's a MediaTek Dimensity 900 processor under the hood, which should offer similar performance to the Exynos 1280 inside the Galaxy A33 5G, Galaxy A53 5G, and the Galaxy M33 5G.
