Hello,

I’m writing to report a serious issue that started immediately after updating my Galaxy S23 to One UI 7. I came in Canada and I was one of the "lucky ones" to be ìn the rollout percent. The camera quality has dropped significantly: photos are blurry or over-processed, even in good lighting, videos are unstable, with noticeable shakines, night mode and ultra-wide shots look worse than before, focus is slower and often inaccurate.

This makes the phone nearly unusable for taking decent photos or videos while i am on a trip. 

Please advise if a fix is coming soon. I have already tried resetting camera settings. Many users are reporting similar problems, so I hope Samsung will address this urgently. Or if a workaround is in place, let me know.

Same experience on an s23 ultra. Perspective on photos weird since the update. Bit like a fisheye lens. Not a happy customer!

Potential impacts on Samsung recently:

- Korea was in trouble last year

- The lost of the CEO

- Google has changed their android release schedule

So I think we need some patience.

Galaxy S23 Ultra user in Canada here. I definitely noticed that night shots got much worse. Much noisier now and the camera can't find focus points while take pics. I use the camera for lots of low light shooting in concerts and clubs and the phone was amazing up until this One UI update.

 

Samsung, take note that I'll probably switch to iPhone for the first time ever over this camera issue.
