S24 plus Camera lens glare

[mikoalyx]

Is this normal? I'm not sure what this is but it's been like that since I unboxxed the phone and wiping the lens did not change anything. Im also noticing how blocking light with my hand can vastly change the quality and color of my photos

Hi Helena,

I've wiped the lens many times, it rarely gets marked by fingers or anything since my case has a slide cover for the camera. There's no real improvement as I stated in my post. My original question still stands as I don't know if any of this is normal. I see 2 different anomalies and I know the reflection shown in my first video and some of the other pictures has been there since I got this phone back in February. I just wiped the lens again, it's still there. I will share photos of the lens as well.

So what am I supposed to do if I'm seriously concerned

Thought it might be lens flare but in a couple photos you're obviously getting artifacts that aren't that.

Try using the remove lens flare feature in gallery and see if it can remove that weird lighting.

 hmm yeah I don't know exactly what causes the starburst or halo or generally lens flares. Im not sure what to call any of it,  but it disappoints me greatly.
