Hello, i'm happy with everything on the phone, except for the camera, I have two main issues:
On HDR auto, when it enables HDR some times the colours are just off, too oversaturated or ghosting issues regarding colours. I more or less fix this using the GCam.
On some interior scenarios with certain types of lights, the image captured is just yellowish, but changing cameras or moving a little bit the colour returns to a normal white... This is not happening on a Oneplus Nord, picture is just much better. Do you know if this is a normal thing to be happening?

This pic is taken with a stock camera. It doesnt matter which White Balance I chose, the camera can never correct the green light. The lights and objects on windows on the right building have correct colors.

This pic is taken with Camera360 app at max ISO (1600) with flashlight constantly on. I noticed that the app flushes the photo with some red (already visible through the phone before pressing the shutter) and now the walls shows the correct color but the windows/curtains and the sky(the sky is the least of my worries) are overflushed with red. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt.
I know that camera phones are basically point and shoot and I shouldnt expect too much of it under low light conditions but I have a photo that shows rows of green lit light posts and I am not pleased
What should I do to fix this?
Hi XDA, I have a few questions about the camera sensor problem on my Galaxy Mini 2.
Yeah, I know it's a low-end phone with a weak camera (and it would seem that I'm making a big deal out of this), but I'm not asking this because I'm annoyed by it - I just wish to know if it's a completely dead pixel, and if such thing as "half dead" pixel exists. Such things can happen on high-end devices too.
So, what's this all about? There's a very small dark dot on my photos, especially photos of the sky and other uniformly lit objects. It's most visible on lower ISO values - although you can't manually set ISO on this phone, the value shows up in IrfanView's info box.
The problem is, I don't know if it's a completely dead pixel. You see, the dark dot and its surrounding area never read HTML color #000000 (full black) in any photo viewer on my PC. So could it be a "half dead" pixel, if such thing exists (a pixel that's not dead but simply can't sense light correctly)? No, it's not a dirty lens or dust, I checked.
If I take some indoor photos (higher ISO values, more light to camera sensor) the dark dot becomes brighter, more like light-gray. And on completely exposured (extremely bright) photos, the dark dot is almost gone. Another thing, indoor photos on Mini 2 are usually blurrier (lack of autofocus), and the dark dot on them is also blurred - it's not sharp independent of its surroundings, which would indicate a damaged camera sensor.
Finally, do such dead (or half dead) pixels have a tendency of growing in size (expanding) over time? If not, I can live with it.
I find the when I shoot in Superior Auto in low-light, many times there appear a violet / bluish haze on the left side (no flash fired). I find that switching to Night Portrait or Night Mode is too much of a hassle, ESPECIALLY when the conditions constantly change like going to a different place that's brightly lit or going inside a restaurant. Also, these modes tend to have motion blur.
Now I'm thinking of Manual Mode but basically got the same results as Superior Auto (probably. I'm just not good at tinkering with the settings).
Any tips?
Thanks!

In night conditions only use switching ISO settings,exposure and white balance.
For examle,when it has blueish scene turn the white change white balance to one in the midle if the list,and you will got more reallity look of scene you photographing.Also ISO settings dont go over 800 and you can sometimes change exposure ti minus to get a less noise.Try with those settings and you can get ok images.

Hello to everyone, new user of the Xperia 5ii and I have two problems
1)Has anyone observed a slightly change in the colour of the screen between 60 and 120hz? It's very obvious if you have dark mode and sit in a dark room. When you toggle the selection on and off, you can easily see it
2)I was trying to upload an Instagram story and the quality drops significantly. You literally can distinguish pixels. It's only on Instagram, on Facebook there was no problem. Also I tried to upload the photos from another device, and the same problem exists.
Any help is most welcome

This is true and if being honest, quite expected. It most noticable when the screen brightness is somewhere 5-20%. You can clearly see it when toggling the 60 or 120hz. The panel itself is great, many oled defects are gone or very minimal. This green tint issue is quite common on other 120hz panels too (mostly Samsung made). That might also be one reason why the new Iphone 12 phones don't have 120hz, too much quality problems.
So yes, there is a green tint. But luckily it is very minor and only on certain screen brightness. Haven't noticed it when actually using the phone.
Not sure if this count as a defect to get a replacement (the replacement would probably have the same issue).
Attached few photos I took.
I have the same issue in low-brightness and 120Hz activated
Hi
While making a video of close objects Whenever the system shifts to zoom lens the saturation increases and colors become over saturated.
I make videos of gems and stones. and for that purpose i bought this camera.
Especially the blue stones become too blue when i zoom in and zoom lens turns on.
Is there a way where we can select individual lens manually so that the zoom lens doesn't turn on unless I want it.
Try with turned of AI. If nothing changes after that I don't know what can you do.
When the device switching between camera modules maybe is normal to have problems with saturation. All three camera modules have different apertures and they receive a different amount of light.
The only solution that I found is by using the pro mode and setting the white balance manually when the zoom lens turns on. By doing that the camera keeps the selected saturation even when the lens gets changed.
This is what I think. Need to confirm it with different color items.
You guyz check it aswell.
I hope mate 40 doest have the same problem. Quite disappointing bug considering the price of the phone and camera quality.
