Re: S21 camera disappointment

Since both the lense/sensors have the same 'edge' issue, I can only imagine that it must be software related, maybe the HDR routine.

The sensors are now bigger, so the DOF will be reduced on these close up shots compared with your S6. It looks like the center is in focus but the rest is maybe starting to drop out of focus.

Seems to be the day of phone camera disappointments

I just got a Pixel 4a 5g to replace a LG V30. The V30 has smaller sensors but it's at least on a par with the Pixel when using the Gcam app. The only thing that is better is the Night Sight as the LG V30 wouldn't always focus in Night Sight on Gcam.

After doing a lot of research, the only phone that I really liked the photos from was the Huawei P40 Pro. If it had google services I would have bought it.
