Galaxy S23 FE Camera issue on OneUi7

[emilyky]

I decided to upgrade my phone from Galaxy S21 to S23 FE. I noticed that the S21 camera uses Samsung GN1 sensor, Exynos 2100 OneUi 6.1.

- Galaxy S23 FE uses GN3, Exynos 2200, OneUI 7. But when I tested 4k 30fps video recording in indoor conditions, S23 FE was noisy and lost details. S21 FE was better in all the cases I compared.

The S21's dark photos had less noise and were clearer than S23FE's. When moving the S23Fe camera, noise appeared and when it stopped moving, the noise disappeared. The 3X camera of S23 Fe is better than the 3x of S21.

Looking at the specs, the s23fe does indeed have a worse camera than the s21. Mainly the telephoto is way better on the s21. So I don't see anything unusual going on.

Also your post says multiple times the s23fe was more noisy and worse. But at the end you say the s23fe was better. Assuming that was a typo

Galaxy s23 FE is only better in 3X camera (3x Zoom), everything else is worse. 

S21 is better than s23 FE in Main camera, 1080 videos, 4k and photography. S21 is awesome. S21 is better than s23 FE in Main camera, 1080 videos, 4k and photography. S21 is great because it has weaker hardware but higher image quality than s23 FE

I had a S23 FE and didn't have a problem with photos. I was on One UI 6 though. It's got the same main camera as the S22, S23, S24 and S25.

The s23fe has an 8mp telephoto camera where the s21 has a 64mp telephoto camera.

The main camera on the s23fe is 50mp where the s21 has a 12mp main camera

I know. If you have a Samsung Galaxy S23 FE and a Galaxy S21, compare the low light cameras to see the difference, I'm a photography expert so I'm not lying to you. The photo and video quality from the Galaxy S23 Fe is terrible on OneUI7.
