Camera Panorama mode Blurry, Poor Quality

[Maris61]

Can anybody else confirm that their galaxy A22 5g device’s camera takes overall poor quality, blurry pictures when in panorama mode??

All other camera modes appear to work fine, but panorama mode is consistently very poor quality—always very blurry, and warped beyond what is expected for panoramic.

Out of the box, this has always been the case for my device. And it strikes me as unusually poor since I have used much lower end samsung models w/ panorama mode being far better.

My A22 is updated, as is its camera app.
Thank you!

Hey @Maris61.

When you’re trying to take a picture, tap the screen on the item you'd like to focus on. I'd like you to clear the cache/data from the Camera app. Open Settings > Apps > Tap on the sort by icon next to ‘Your apps’ > Select the switch next to Show system apps > Camera > Storage > Clear cache/data.

Also, make sure that your software is updated (Open Settings > Software update > Download and install). Then, try a soft reset on your phone by pressing and holding the Power and Volume Down buttons for 10 seconds.

*Much* belated reply here.

@AtshaamY, thank you, but the tip to "When you’re trying to take a picture, tap the screen on the item you'd like to focus on" does not apply in panorama mode, which is where the A22 just falls flat on its face in performance--and what my question was asking.

Unfortunately, by now, and after all manner of troubleshooting, I've read elsewhere that the A22 and the like just really aren't that good compared to the "flagship" models. Which is too bad, b/c 1. I doubt there'll be efforts to even try to address this kind of basic flaw at this point w/ any updates. And 2. this wasn't what I would've called a "cheap" phone when buying out of pocket w/o any attached plan.

And, as I said, I do believe this is a pretty basic flaw, since I've owned other, much cheaper, much older model phones that took far, far better panoramic images vs. these Samsung models that are supposedly just a step below the flagship models.
