Metering in 'photo' mode is a mess - Just me? - Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers

I just picked up a P40 pro again and a few days in I am finding the camera pretty bad in auto mode. Sharpness seems good but metering is all over the place.
I have only been playing indoors with our cats as the unwilling subjects but they usually prove a good torture test for phone cameras (and one that Samsung phones crash and burn on) As I say so far in 'photo' mode it just seems to be over exposing pretty consistently. I think I can see what the meter is trying to do but I do not like it. Night mode is fine and pro mode is fine too.
See examples attached. Anybody else seeing this?

BUG on AUTO SCN(15.3.A.1.12)?

Guys look at this, there are daylight photos like this that is overexpose. It is taken using AUTO SCN... I notice it sets its self to "INFANT" and when I look at properties it says "PROGRAM NAME: BABY"... All of my shots when "INFANT" mode is automatically selected becomes overexpose... Look at the EV Value... camera automatically raised it to +1.5 which will obviously overexpose the camera.... I tried reshooting this with different angles but out of 10 only 2 cameout acceptable. Camera really is good right now compare before except it tooks some overexpose photos on broad daylight when using auto SCN.... kinda not happens when using older firmware...

[battery]drain on xt1039

Hey everyone, I bought recently the phone, but the unique dark point is the battery drain when the screen is on.
Any tips to improve the battery?

Depends what you do with the screen on time man. If that goes down so fast (as the last hour of your screenshot) browsing or watching vids then you may have a problem. If on the other hand it went down this way playing, say, Asphalt 8 then it is reasonable. Other factor to consider is brightness level, but really more info is needed other than just that screenshot.
Yes I know. I will post more info. I played clash of clans, and really but surfing browser. I think it's caused by the 4g, because after 1go my data is limited. I think he sucks more red sources, no?

Have you tried tap-to-focus?
This seems to be focus issue or may be some protection glass/film over camera?
Like svetius suggested above, try tap to focus.

I need your help with my SM-N960U

Hello, I’m suddenly experiencing an issue with the light system of my phone.
The screen light is going low and sometimes turns itself yellow. It’s usually come while using the phone, with the lines that blur the vision.
Here’s the fact: when I take a screenshot with the SM-N960U and share it on another phone, it appears very clear, as you can see in the pic below.

Question Screen issues with US version? Got lines on mine!

Alright I finally got a good picture of this happening. See the very faint horizontal lines?
This only appears under certain conditions-
Only when I touch the screen and only after I lock/unlock the phone for the first time after a reboot. (It's fine before that first lock/unlock)

Likely related to the refresh rate. That is really hard to see.
they are aware and software update will fix it they "claim"
Until the update switch to FHD resolution. Not experiencing that on my US Unlocked version. But I heard stepping down the resolution helps fix that.
