Drop in Camera Quality

[CJD11]

I've had the S21 Ultra for a couple of years now, however the camera quality has dramatically reduced. On the 108MP camera it's grainy and poor quality. I used to love my camera so I'm not sure what's happened. It's the same on the 'Full' mode but only at 1x zoom. At 0.6 and other zoom settings it appears better/normal. It essentially means the 108MP is redundant and not something I can use as the photos are so poor. Any help greatly appreciated.

@CJD11 We are sorry to hear this. Could you attach some example photos of what you are seeing? We can then assist further for you.

One of these is taken with the 'Full' mode and the other two are taken with the 108MP camera. All are clearly blurry and in very good light.

These two are on 'Full' mode and are the 0.6 and 3x zoom settings which show a more improved quality picture.

I have the same issue in my Samsung s21 ultra 1x camera. When you start the camera in photo mode it won't focus properly on the subject and produces blurred photographs. This doesnt happen in the wide angle or telephoto lenses. I'm a full time professional photographer and the only reason I upgraded from an iPhone to this S21 ultra was the camera. What can be done to have the 1x camera work again as it used? Thanks

Mine is the same awful quality!!! Same issue, my belief is they down grade the quality, to make u upgrade the phone just like apple.

If that is the case shame on samsung!!

Shame on you Samsung. I used to be the envy of my apple loving wife because of my phones picture quality. Now she laughs at me. Please do something. I've been a dedicated Galaxy owner ever since the S3, but my next phone might just be a Pixel.

My camera is also awful. Any resolution to this?
