S22 Ultra vibrates/clicks when zooming in 10x

[Barib110]

This has only started happening recently, which makes me worried about the cameras.

When I zoom in, I hear a "crack" noise from the camera. I feel the phone vibrate in my hands too. So it's a forceful 'snap'. Not too loud, but I feel it. 

It only happens when zooming into 10x telephoto. But it's not super often either. So it's that lens specifically. Does anyone else get this?

I have never heard of this problem before @Barib110. Never. I must add that I own an S21 Ultra with the same 10x telephoto zoom and it is always smooth and quiet when in use. It sounds like there is a sticking issue on your cameras telephoto lens which is anything but normal and I would 100% recommend you arrange to take it back to wherever you bought it or contact your contract provider to at least get your phone looked at by a specialist. You pay good money for your S22 Ultra Barib and this is a major fault in my opinion and you need to act as quickly as you can before your camera zoom fails completely. Good luck to you.👍👍

I have it too.

It happens when switching x10. In the meantime, the cameras change, first, then the second, and then the telezoom, then it probably turns on zoom camera and this causes a click.

Same here.

I got mine for a week and just now I noticed the same thing...

Anyone knows, if this should be like this, or if it's a problem ?

I am not sure, but I sent mine for RMA because of hole in membrane in top reproductor and I asked them, if they can check this camera " problem ".

So I will give you info later.

So I will give you info.

It started happening to mine s22 ultra as well, especially when phone is facing downwards or at an angle close to horizontal. if it towards sky or even vertical, then it doesnt happen.

Every camera has optical stabilization and when it comes to 10x zoom, it's really pleasing to have it. So what i mean is that, when you switch to 10x zoom, it turns on the optical stabilization and it does this click. 

I also found out, that this happens more often if you've turned off the software stabilization or if it wasn't enabled by default. 

If you want to solve it, just simply turn on software stabilization, but it makes your screen zoom-in a little so don't freak out if it takes some of the image out. (Super stabilization zooms-in like 5x more, than the regular one)
