Very poor performance. Selfie camera pic quality is way too low even a 10k phone can click better

This has to be the worst front camera. Maybe m30 series will have better one. Disappointed

Worst selfie camera

Mine seems to be fine

Just got the February update with camera improvements so going to test the front cam.

Can you please give us your feedback. I've tested the front camera on the note 10 lite and it's literally the worst, the pictures are so blurry with no details, it's like taking a photo with 2 MP Camera. And the weird thing is that the camera on the A71 is much better than the Note 10 lite even though they have the same 32MP sensor.

Charging animation

No improvement after February update. Really disappointed.

For me, It is not bad, compare to a galaxy note 4 !
I try with last update (N770FXXU2ATB6) and it seem slightly better.

Needless croaking phone and camera are ok...

Awful selfie quality of note 10 lite
Has any of you guys check camera hardware with device info apps?
I checked it with 6 different apps and they all say the selfie camera's resolution is 5.2 mp NOT 32 mp!!

In my opinion, this is the best smartphone with selfie camera and the rear camera is very good with telephoto and 100 zoom

improvement update!
No improvement after February update. Really disappointed.

Selfie quality like low-end A51. But the camera hole is very small and it looks good, and as design - one of the best solutions on the market, imo.

Hello
I have no complaints about the quality of the selfies, it is more than correct.

Front camera is not bad, it's horrible. even compared to galaxy A series. but since I barely use it, this is not a big deal for me. having a non-curved amoled screen with headphone jack and s-pen is something that I've been waiting for since note 5. So I accept the shortcomings of this phone...

Not sure what is wrong.
The selfie quality seems to be fine for me on the Note 10. The only issue is the shutter button takes to long. Has to be instant. But the photo quality seems good to me.

Yeah the selfie quality is very good and the camera of Samsung note 10 lite is amazing I used it and get awesome results I hope everyone like it :good:

Just bought this phone, and the selfie camera is PLAIN AWFUL not just compared with my A71, but in general.

I've rated selfie cam average coz it's a mixed bag
In artificial lighting conditions it produces somewhat blurry images. In fact selfies in complete darkness with the screen flash look better than selfies in artificial lights such as tubelights, bulbs etc. Bokeh selfies are better with more details as compared to normal selfies.
I'm talking about selfies with 0 beautification.
I must admit that I'm coming from nexus 5 which has 1.2 mp front camera so maybe I was expecting a bit too much from the 20 mp cam of Poco f1!
Come to think of it, various hardware checking apps show front camera as 5 mp!
May be they are detecting secondary camera at the back as front camera...anyone knows any app that detects all 3 cameras (megapixel and sensor used) correctly??!
It is correct with 5mp. The Cam combines four Pixels top one Superpixel.
I thought it's detecting 5 mp is secondary back camera and mistaking it for front cam

So you mean the front camera is actually a 5 mp cam and it should be denoted as such in hardware info apps such as CPU X? This explains why the selfie quality wasn't much much better as I had expected. I'm not that impressed with this 4 pixel combining to form a Superpixel technology....at least in poor lighting conditions.
It would also mean that the secondary 5 mp camera at the back isn't mentioned in the information generated by such apps!
Shouldn't it be mentioned?
I hope I'm clear on this point.
Noticed nowadays new camera unable to capture sharp pic for grp selfie
Grp selfie is where u at front n few members at the back to ensure everyone fit it in the picture
But what happen is only ur pic is sharp while the rest quite blur
This not happened during single lens with fix focus like s7 or 2016 model
How to fix this ?
I must admit that the selfies come out blurry when taken indoors especially when taken with volume rocker. It shakes up due to the press of the button. Do you guys face that?

I assume you might already be aware, they do have the option to use the fingerprint scanner as shutter.
Camera - Settings , scroll down and find it under Additional settings

Yes indeed. But just verifying if it's only my phone gets blurry due to such small shakes.

It's the same with me also, even on the rear camera most of the pictures taken on artificial lighting conditions are blurry because of that shaking.
The correct name for this thread is "Blurry camera" Quality
Even with the tripod its taking blurry shot - Cool is it ?
Need a Fix for this soon
The youtube reviews were good regarding the front camera & even the photos were good. Were the review units different or the camera hardware in the 8gb+256gb?
am i just speculating? :crying:

I see the phone uses a 20MP sensor from Samsung.
This not a real 20MP camera...I mean, it can't be! Or it's very, VERY bad, even in natural light conditions.
The quality of selfies is way inferior to the 12MP sensor of the back camera.
The amount of details captured by it makes it look more like a 5-8MP sensor...

Nice travesty
It's pretty good considering Huawei and Samsung selfie are overfiltered and poor quality.
This one can see your pores and pixel bins to prevent noise.
Hi look at this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssw9H08ddlw
You guys are completely crazy or have fault devices. The frontal camera is absolutely amazing. My girlfriend have a XS and its there's no comparison, F1 is much better in every way. You just need to turn off Beautiful Mode and increase sharpness on Options to make things more clear. It's one of the best selfie cameras that I ever see in my life. Get out of here you guys.
But there's a issue that Xiaomi need to fix. The camera dont focus acurately subjects at 1 meter from device. If you use Selfie Group Mode, the problem is gone.
The issue is with focus which is fixed at a distance of around 50cm. Beyond that, objects get blurred.

Photo quality

Say "cheese", then rate this thread to express how photos taken with the ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) come out. A higher rating indicates that photos offer rich color (without over-saturating), sharp detail (with all subjects in-focus), and appropriate exposure (with even lighting).
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Apparently there will be an update to camera, both in terms of performance and functionality, it should be available to download at 28th May, which should be just before it gets released in most places.
https://swedroid.se/forum/threads/snabba-fragor-snabba-svar-zenfone-6.165775/page-15#post-2430313
At least according to Asus Sweden
According to pocket-link, this phone can shoot multiple frame resulting in 109 megapixel photos. I haven't read from other sites before.
https://www.pocket-lint.com/phones/reviews/asus/147785-asus-zenfone-6-review-flip-camera
Does the Phone support raw shooting? If so from the 48MP camera and/or the 13PM wide?
All of this but no mention of the zoom capabilities.
Obviously optical zoom would have been mentioned, but I'm wondering how the digital zoom is before the image starts breaking up.

There is a good comparison here including zoom
Really holds up well
Im holding off at present, some of the pics look way to soft, and way to much colour saturation.
Don't expect huge improvements from what they've delivered in the past. They do have some new tech to play with to improve night shots thanks to the 48MP sensor (although missing OIS). And some will prefer the superior front cam capabilities for sure.
New update, also enables EIS on 4k 60 fps filming, from this video:

colours are still way off :/

The best front cam that they've tested, not surprisingly. Not an astounding result considering it's using its rear camera. Hopefully software changes and/or Gcam can help improve it further.
Curious to see how it scores in the Rear cam test.

DXoMark does smartphones as 'selfie' (front) and 'mobile' (rear) with separate reviews. I imagine the criteria is different so they can't use one score for both still. If you look at any rear cam review the photos are a mix of people and objects, while the front cam reviews are practically entirely people based (hence 'selfie' score). It won't necessarily get the same score as a rear cam as it does a selfie cam since there is different criteria to keep even testing.

Dxomark only produces selfie score just because Asus want to show off their top score on-stage at Computex 2019
My guess is the rear camera software is still got lots more room for improvements, XDA posted today that there are major firmware upgrades for camera quality improvements
https://www.xda-developers.com/asus-zenfone-6-update-super-night-mode-hdr/
Image quality, colors and skintone looks good to my eyes in this sample https://www.eprice.com.tw/mobile/talk/4543/5333582/1/rv/asus-zenfone-6-zs630kl-6gb_128gb-review/ and even in DXOmark selfie review, the skin tone and colors are very similar to Pixel 3 which is very good for Asus smartphone
I can't wait for this phone to launch in my country
How about super night shot option. Does it work well compare to Huawei P30. Thanks.

Day light photo quality is comparable to Pixel 3, S10+, iPhone XS, P30 Pro
but the night mode on P30 Pro beats anything in the market coz physics...not even samsung google apple can compete with the better and larger main sensor in P30 Pro...u may want to install gcam for night sight to get better night photo on zenfone 6

Thanks. I heard that ASUS has released a firmware update which addresses super night mode issue.

I'm able to open the wide angle camera in pro mode only. Is this the only way to open it?
No, you have to slide between zoom button to switch between cameras, sliding right to 0.6x will take you to the wide angle camera
Wide angle
Or you can pinch in to get to wide angle.

Amazing!
Just zoom into that seagul ? it's too detailed
Lol XDA just reduced the quality.... But trust me... The camera quality is the best in this segment.... No phone can match... I mean realme XT is nearer but still I love natural colours which realme doesn't give... So for me redmi note 8 pro is better
Amaz
Overall very happy with camera.
Portrait is amazing.
Wide angle is useful
Main cam is better than I hoped.
2x is the only downside so far. Very hit and miss.
Couple of point and shoots. Didn't use night mode on the evening shots

i guess you know i realize that

i had my meizu pro 5 with 20 mb and till recently its camera is awesome in details and its zoom was astonishing
even with older phones from lenovo didnt produce such weird textures or that noise on pictures
you bought the wrong phone for photography, it's because of mediatek sensor processing, it can't par with 2019 best lenses
and with that sensor, even video recording I've seen on rn8 pro, it's a bit better than my.. 2015 redmi note 2, only a bit better..
you could try gcam, but it will never work 100%
my gf's 2 years 90€ redmi 5 gcam does a lot better job at photography on day and night.

It's a good mediocre phone with a not so good camera. Not the best. But it justifies its price.
Redmi note 8 Pro main Camera.

Very blurry. I'll take mine to the warranty see what we can do and make out of it

Oneplus 8 Pro has a different selfie camera sensor.

No problem Sir.
Find X2 Pro's selfie photos are decent, I'd say average. HDR is present and works well, although in front portrait mode it might overbrighten the image.
Oneplus 8 Pro has it stabilized which makes for much better vlogging experience. On the other hand, Oppo has a night mode for the front camera which drastically improves low light performance.
Personally I'm glad Oppo scrimped on the front camera quality as I almost never use it and a better camera would only increase the price.
It gets a pass. Certainly not as good as the pixel or iPhone. Seems to beautify too much.
I'd agree, the weakest part of the phone - HDR not that good, photos come out soft and stabilization isn't great. Not as good as the OnePlus 8 pro although that's not perfect either, very sharp but makes everyone look red and too warm.
Selfie camera is very poor comparing to other mobiles in the same price range .

Coming from iPhone 11 Pro, i totally agree with you. The selfie mode is way over exposed most of the time and in case you have light coming right in the camera the picture is very bad. The iPhone does it way better.
In definition, when conditions are good (no direct light source in the lens) this sensor is way better than the iPhone's one.

?????? Fanboys rating.....
The front facing camera quality is terrible compared to my old oneplus 6t. The image is noisy and dark. Especially when not taken on preinstalled camera app eg: snapchat.
Just took a selfie in low light and also in portrait mode which I didn't realise existed on the front (maybe it didn't on the 3XL) as I don't really take selfies. It came out pretty good
Bad. Selfies are really bad with Pixel 5. I came to Pixel 5 from 2XL and it took far superior selfies. Pixel 5 selfies are not sharp (misfocused) and they are smoothed out even with all the face retouch settings disabled. I have no idea why, but it lacks the classic "pixel look". Main camera is awesome tho.
I cannot understand why Google makes the images taken from the front camera been not Sharp. Initially the picture is taken sharp but the phone ends up with a not Sharp one
To be honest, the front facing camera is pretty good compared to other Android Smartphones as long as you're using the default Camera App.
I think there's something wrong with the front camera. It's like you cannot turn off face retouch - that's a shame!
There's already a threat at the google forum.
Alternative gcam-versions don't help. It's the same problem on the p4a!
why many Pixel 5 user said that Front Camera really Bad?
