Hello everyone.
Just wondered if anyone elses stock camera app the colours are sometimes washed out, with no color. I have the dazzle option turned on and the filter. But it's still dull. Perhaps coming from a p40 pro where there colours are over saturated. not sure if oppo will update there camera app with Android 11. But not had any update since July. I'm using UK EU device on EE network.
Maybe worth a factory reset, I find the colour reproduction on the Find X2 Pro to be one of the best

Hi all,
I've been an original Note 10.1 user for 18 months an upgrade to a Note Pro on a great deal. It arrived this morning and at first everything was wonderful, but the moment I fired up Sketchbook Pro, the yellows looked dull and greenish. A large stroke of pure yellow painted some seemingly olive green colour. It's not really suitable for art. Video and photo's tend to look okay though (possibly even better colour balanced that other devices I have), so it's hard to pin down. It also happens in other applications - the colour picker in SNote has a really sad, depressed yellow. I've taken a few photos alongside other displays but depressingly they capture a pure yellow which is very odd.
Googling around, the Lenovo Yoga 2 uses the same screen and has users grumbling about the yellows, and a BIOS update has improved things but not fixed them, suggesting the RGBW Pentile display is just incapable of accurately displaying true yellows. If that's the case though, why wasn't this brought up in the many glowing reviews of the Note Pro?
The best way to ascertain whether mine's a defective/improperly calibrated unit or not seems to be to ask other owners, hence my enrolling here. If you paint some pure yellow in Sketchbook Pro, does it look yellow? Does it pop like a ripe lemon or banana, or look somewhat sickly and off? Is the Note Pro just incapable of rendering such colours?
As an aside, why aren't colour calibration options included on devices like they are on TVs?? Seems an easy way to allow users to tailor their colour preferences. Edit: Huh. Samsung does provide Screen Modes for their tablets, just not those from Hong Kong!
Turns out the Hong Kong model doesn't have Screen Mode settings according to the manual. US and EU does, but not Hong Kong. Why?! So I'm guessing that this model is limited to 'movie mode' colours or something. If you vote above, please mention which region your Note Pro is from (and better yet, if changing the Screen Mode changes the colour rendering).
Have you found out anything else? I've the same problem (I've already voted).
I'm questioning myself if I should send it for RMA or not, since I live in Argentina.
Hey guys. I noticed that whenever I pull down my notification / settings bar the yellows displayed on background stuff looks normal. This is kind of an annoying find, as it shows that the note pro is capable of correct colors
I just bought a mate 9 pro, so far I'm happy with the phone but I felt that the photos taken with the rear camera were a bit weird. I went to a huawei shop and compared it to their model and photos taken with my phone have a slight green tint compared to the phone from the store.
Do you think this could be due to a firmware update? (I'm running the latest version but the shop was using b122).
Has anyone had this issue?
Did you try a factory reset? Maybe you have a faulty unit.
I recommend you copy the pictures on your computer to look at them on your monitor.
Maybe the green tint comes from the white balance of of your Mate 9 display which can be adjusted in the display options.
I've looked at them on my computer. It's quite slight and easily fixable with snapseed or other software but that's a bit of a hassle. So, maybe it's just a matter of taste...
I do prefer the images from the demo units in the shop but I wonder if the differences are due to slight tweakings by huawei in their newer firmware (since the demo units run an old firmware)...
I've attached a photo taken from my phone on the left and a photo taken with the shop model on the right.
Looking at it on my computer, the title is a bit incorrect, it's a bit more yellow, saturated. So, maybe it's just a matter of the white balance being always a little bit too warm...
Hello guys, first time posting here, just want to say hi to everyone.
So, i just recently bought the p40 pro, and am getting used to no GMS. However phone has a lot of good things regardless Google. I noticed just one thing, when i enter camera app, and want to take picture it looks all blury, and kinda like washed out on the screen. It looks like bad quality with bad contrast and like it is budget phone from 2015. However it is a lot better and i think licture is normaln after taking it. Also when i manually zoom in it stays blury like that and then sharpens, and it looks the way it should be. Am i just tripping or what?
I am going to upload screenshot tomorrow.
Peace!

When I take a photo from a close black/dark object with the main camera, the middle of the picture has a red/purple hue. I found people with the same issue, but we need to report It to Huawei through the Support app, and if they receive a lot of reports, maybe they will fix this problem. So can you test It please, and report it if you have this issue too? If you test don't use flash, and the issue is only with the main camera, so be sure you didn't change to wide. I attached some photos.
I never seen this problem. What version of software do you have and what version of P40 Pro? I have Ice White version,ELX-NX9,C432 area. I am on EMUI 11 Beta now,but never saw that problem even before. Maybe it's related to some versions. I saw for example on some forums,people were comparing P30 Pro,and most of them agreed that black version with 8GB RAM and 256GB storage and another one(can't remember which colour) made better photos on zoom and colours were more natural in general. Maybe it's the same with P40 Pro...I think they came from different factories and some might have that problem from the same factory.
ELS-NX9
10.1.0.154
C432
Can you take a photo in low light conditions from something blue or black, please?
Have the exact same problem. I think its either the color correction of huawei software or just the ToF sensor
Just got a P40 Pro and noticed this issue straight away. Is there a fix for this or should I get the phone replaced?
Never seen that happen. I have a P40 Pro, 10.1.0.131 (C432)
Mine does this
You are right, same here with last EMUI 11... Best PHOTOPhone ???
I thought Google camera was supposed to be top quality. The picture showing in the view finder looks like its got a brownish/grayish filter over it with colors washed out, and the display keeps dimming with Adaptative brightness off. Often the picture looks blurry. Coming from OnePlus it's a very disappointing camera.
Update: Turns out I have a bad unit. After comparing camera quality to other Pixel 7 Pro, the difference is incredible. RMA back to Google

Sounds like your phone is defective because my OnePlus 9 was the most disappointing camera I have had since my HTC Mogul. I have yet to be disappointed with a picture from my 7 Pro.

Im leaning towards defective too. Im about to factory reset to see if that clears it up. It only seems to be the front camera, rear is good
The biggest thing i dont like about this camera is the extreme oversharpening wich destroys the image
yes, processing is up a notch since the 6. also the 7p tele is a downgrade from the 6. it's a shame. I use the tele on the 6 loads and love it. I don't think I can give it up for the 7 tele.
