When I've taken photos with 10x zoom the picture is very grainy and not crisp. Any tips what I'm doing wrong

A73 doesn't have dedicated telephoto camera. So don't expect that it will capture good pictures that requires zoom.

Well that's disappointing, what is the point of having that level of zoom facility?

It uses the primary camera to perform digital zoom instead of optical zoom that those phone with dedicated telephoto camera have. So result will be different.

If I'm not mistaken, it will be like it will capture the picture using the 108mp camera then digitally crop it to 10x. Unlike with those dedicated telephoto camera where it will zoom first before capturing.

A72 have those before, not sure why Samsung removed it in A73. Maybe they think digital zoom is enough as they upgraded the main sensor.

@nohctis I very much appreciate your response and clarification. I have decided to upgrade my phone, as the poor performance of 10x zoom is far from what I expected. Once again thank you,
