Camera quality is very poor. when I see photo before taking is quite good but when I click it and see after processing,the light balance distorted. Specially for face ,face gets very dark .they say it’s showing natural photos but it’s not a little bit near natural. I am huge fan of nothing. but the camera quality is very very poor . I’m embarassed to tell someone that I brought a phone by spending 35k because when they click a photo and see the quality it’s very very poor. Please sir fix this . Just for camera I brought nothing phone 2 instead of nothing 2a.

Pictures from 3 phones:

Top Samsuna A53 (cheaper than Nothing Phone 2) - correct colours and decent resolution

Middle Nothing Phone 2 - not really bad colours (too blue but that looks nice) but details completely washed out

Bottom iPhone 15 (a little costlier than Nothing Phone 2 - not much) - not good for the price of the phone, but the videos from it are OK, Not as good as in the Samsung, but better than the Phone 2

Latest update did change NOTHING at all. Camera is still as bad/good or whatever as when all software was factory.

    I think the biggest problem with the camera is the watercolor effect it creates when processing it. Almost any photo you have, if you zoom in, you will see a brutal loss of detail. “Washes” the image to soften it and eliminate possible noise. As a counterpart, it has that, that everything is displayed without detail and even deforms faces that are somewhat far away. It is awful. In that, any €200-€300 Xiaomi surpasses it.

    In favor, since the last updates, the color palette seems more real and accurate to me.

    Hi, I have the NP2 with OS 2.5.5, today on daily light I have been taking 4 pictures two with ghosting eyes on faces… wery sad… I cannot trust that. Kids are moving fast and some shots could be amazing, but they are not. Strange is the fact that when I was trying to edit it and highlight in submenu (Watermark / Znacka) there is not ghosting…. but elswhere it is.

    I plan to return the NP2 to the store if this is not fixed soon, I need it for kids pictures, where some moments will never be repeating again. I hope someone will understand that. And also its not so sharp. Eyes focus on xperia was working great for an inspiration - in my previous phone xperia 1 Mark 3. Any chances this will get fixed soon?

    I’m using my phone(2) since Dec’23, ever since my front camera is so bad that I didn’t even have any selfies of mine in the gallery 🤦, my realme 3 pro had better selfie cam than phone(2) which worth not even half the price of phone(2). It embarrassing me so bad that I won’t even open front cam, I felt like slapping myself because I choose NP2 over OP11r

      To me the camera is ok, i have a NP2 and a 14 pro Max. Camera seems to be similar. The 14 pro Max seems a bit more lively

      I took photos today using night mode with both 12 MP and 50 MP. But I didn’t see much details in 50MP mode. To be honest 12MP mode had more details. I am upset with the camera performance. Providing update bimonthly is fine, but they are not sorting out the major issues and we don’t have any acknowledgement of the issues.

      @Carl @Remi F @Rob ⚡️ Giving priority to the newly launched phone is good, but the already launched so called flagship phone is struggling. Yes as a new company you have to go for more profit, so you have also started launching new phones instead of making the existing phones better, like the other phone manufacturers. This is not what we expected from nothing. Nothing moto is to make the tech fun again, but now are you making fun of users, there is no proper response or acknowledgement for any of the issues, either in community or X. Fed up, unable to use camera, and sometimes phone lags.

      There is no difference between your flagship and other phones. Same update cycle, same update policy, but different hardware. What does nothing do specially in software for the flagship phones.
