S23 ultra Purple light on video and close up

[Leequ]

Tried a macro shot on the s23 ultra and noticed a purple light as a reflection. Only got worse when switching to video. I'm assuming it's a sensor, but I don't want to see a purple light when taking a close up, especially not as a reflection 

Trying a macro video and seeing the purple sensor reflected

Purple light from a sensor?

I know don't think it done it on the s22 ultra!!

I have done a macro shot but dont get any purple light or reflection

It does it on non reflective photos too... Hope a software update can fix this..

It's the laser autofocus...depends on the angle, but yes...possible software fix to correct the purple mark (similar to a red eye correction I would imagine)

Not what I paid £1200 to take photos off 🤣

I agree...it's possibly changed from the S22 Ultra..might just be the cover but used to be a red spot...maybe it's a different laser 🤷

That's what I got mine for 🤣🤣🤣

Open the camera app and point it at a mirror, you don't see the light in the reflection of the phone in the mirror but through the camera app the violet dot is there on the camera
