I got the Nothing phone 2 about 3 months ago and from day one the camera has been a let down as it’s inconsistent and way over processed .. also I use a flag ship Samsung the Nothing phone 2 definitely doesn’t feel flag ship the build and performance is good but the rest needs a lot of improvement it wasn’t worth $1050 AU ..

I understand that there already are many complaints for the Nothing Camera but these are the pictures of the Nothing Phone 2 camera in my room.

This is with Nothing OS 3.0 beta (same in 2.6 and before that)

The photos look cartoonish when there is a light source in the viewfinder. I mean this is just unacceptable, these phones have been here for more than 2 years and most people are not going out to take pictures in accurate lighting.

I really really hope Nothing addresses the camera because this is supposed to be their flagship, they’ve had many phones now to even if not perfect, but atleast make them acceptable. But this is just horrendous

The Nothing Phone (2) camera has some issues, particularly with detail loss and exposure. The front camera struggles with preserving fine details, and the rear camera often suffers from overexposure. Additionally, the lack of an option to turn off HDR in photo mode limits control over image quality, making it hard to get consistent results in varying light.

Camera is the weakest link of this phone. Nothing must prioritise improvement of both rear and front cameras of NP2.

Atleast they should acknowledged the issue some time preview looks better then clicked picture

I am using Phone 2 for almost 1 n half year, but still the camera issues are not fixed. Look at switching between camera lens, is it functioning like 45k smartphone. I must say budget smartphones will work better than these.

Note : Mods don’t try to hide or delete these post. I want nothing team members to respond on this post and clarify when are we going to get these issues fixed.

    I’ve been having a problem with the camera on my Nothing Phone 2. When I zoom in, the colors in the image fade out and look almost “painted.” The detail also seems to get washed out.

    Has anyone else faced this issue or found a fix? Would appreciate any tips or advice!

    Thanks!

    I have noticed when apps use a QR camera view to scan something the focus is blurry when you try to focus on a QR code (3rd party apps) and it wont let you refocus as there’s no controls to do so.

    gcam normal:

    gcam night sight:

    NP2 ( NOS 2.6) stock camera:

    The white balance with gcam night sight is close to natural while the stock is yellowish.

    The stock camera doesn’t consider this as night mode and didn’t give the option for it either which in my opinion there should be a separate option for night mode only.

    If you zoom in on stock image it looks like a bunch of dots on walls in comparison to gcam but gcam retains the texture great.

    In several other scenarios too while zooming in the images get cartoonish and lack detail.

      Nothing phone 2 . I disappointed only one thing that is camara only . Starting to still now not me only all NP2 users asking camera update and improvements only . In other brands low budget mobiles gives very nice pictures, videos comparatively NP2 . But Nothing didn’t consider this . They never ever consider this . Except cameras other benefits 100% worth . Camera means 200% waste . This is my honest opinion .sorry Nothing this is true .
