GregLu, 09 Sep 2022Could you cheak on some other display with higher ppi perha... moreI'm on my OnePlus 7T Pro set to QHD+ and the pictures look great even when zoomed in, so that's that.

    Anonymous, 09 Sep 2022My personal opinion is that Motorola should have made the t... moreProblem is; the rendition of the 'main' 200MP when cropped would look like crap since it's cropped and the full res pictures provided here really good. OK, perhaps ... Not by my standards anyway 😐

      Kevlar, 09 Sep 2022I dont mean to disrespect, but maybe you can explain to me.... moreIt's not 'crap' per se since hte rest of the picture, when viewing not in full res, seems ok by some people who are less taking attention to detail and so on. But I concur with your point, the picture are bad, the detail rendered is bad, in 50 or even 200 MP mode, it's clearly why Samsung haven't use it it perhaps. Or it's the old saying; higher MP count; lesser quality, even with this Tetra mode ... I hope that maker will stop this non sense to 48-64MP, even my 108MP on the S22U i don't use it a lot; I like way better the 2x zoom of my Note10+ BTW (over the 3x on the S22U). Cheers 👍

        Yext, 09 Sep 2022It's not, your display might be, but the pictures aren... moreCould you cheak on some other display with higher ppi perhaps ? Because I can crop some detail and send it over, tell me after viewing these that it's good and perhaps you might want to check the sight (no disrespect at all here, I have prescription lenses myself 🙈)

          200mp looks like sharp 50mp with good lens, satisfying.

            GregLu, 09 Sep 2022Not crap, but for 900 EUR and not so much long software sup... moreI dont mean to disrespect, but maybe you can explain to me. Am I the only one seeing smudgy details when zoomed in even on 12.5MP picture? Open the main cam snail and the castle one, click on a picture and see for yourself, how is that not crap, honestly? And other people here seem to disagree

                Hate curved screens, yuck

                  mcsound , 09 Sep 2022Quite good cameras, albeit wide angle JN1 is a bit on a sof... moreQuide good; for the price asked ? Sorry but clearly no ... It will suit a lot of people that doesn't look past the 12.5 MP but even there, they aren't that good ...

                    Max, 08 Sep 2022Must be your display, the photos look fine to me. Look at full res, even the one with the aluminum 'shade' on the building is all fuzzy, even in all res again ... It's bad.

                      Kevlar, 08 Sep 2022It looks like crap though. With or without binning its oily... moreNot crap, but for 900 EUR and not so much long software support, I can agree;
                      - There is softness in all picture and A LOT, even more in UW (The 200 and 50MP are rendering a lot in full res; but with a lot of distortion/artefact)
                      - The edge are distorted and even more soft/dull than the center.

                      I hope it'll be better on the market; at this price it's a hard pass for me 🤔

                              Why would anyone want a high megapixel selfie camera? I don't want to see your disgusting pores & nose hairs

                                    The new Xiaomi A1 takes better pictures than this and is a far more solid choice

                                        I would request GSMArena to please check whether there is any heating issue with SD 8+ Gen 1 chipset on Edge 30 Ultra, and publish in full review.
