          Daylight photos I suppose look better but the lowlight photography on Mark IV looks like exactly the same garbage as on my Mark II. People often pull out the manual controls card, but even if you spend 5 minutes adjusting all the settings to perfections, you will never get as good photo as e.g. Samsung or Huawei competitor. It's same old story - top class hardware, but a total nightmare software.

            CompactPhones5ever, 17 May 2022Beating Sony in video capturing or photography isn't r... moreSony's snapshot capabilities aren't amazing, but they usually tend to take good photos. Mark 3 phones made a pretty big jump, so did the new ones from what I have seen. Still need to manually focus for proper lighting, but that's no different from my Zenfone 8. The A23 photos to me look both oversharpened and under-detailed at the same time, I don't even know how that's possible to achieve

                dvorak, 17 May 2022Wow. The camera quality is better than xperia flagshipBeating Sony in video capturing or photography isn't really something to brag about considering how little effort they put into image processing (even as Xperia 5 II owner, I must admit their cameras are utter trash).

                Still, despite decent cameras, it's still way too overpriced. There is no logical reason to pick A23 over A52S if they cost nearly the same.

                          I really miss LG, they provided great phones in this budget. We have to now buy crappy Samsung phones😫😫

                            wait.... emmc????

                              Whackcar, 16 May 2022Samsung should really step out of the budget segment. This ... moreThis year with the new prices of their devices, it' clearly a mess for them, specially when a A52s 5G perfoms better, will get probably a better support and you have a more 'polished' device. Also, not a notch this bad on the poorer screen. The only good thing is the FP reader in the powerbutton! And that's just at Samsung, not even in another brand haha!

                                Might've bought this but one UI doesn't let users hide the notch in the settings, I will skip this and any Samsung phone for now. Maybe in future when the feature exists I may buy

                                  Samsung should really step out of the budget segment. This is bad for obvious reasons.

                                    Lacks ambient and proximity sensor.

                                    A phone with a 50MP OIS camera that doesn't have such basic yet essential sensors... What was Samsung thinking?
