Please provide a way to turn off hdr effect..

Need more improvement on nothing 2 camera department there are lot of problems like shutter lag, no consistent output of image, lack of proper hdr on main cam, more contrasty images and gitter on videos of ultrawide.

    radhar Right from the time NP2 was launched, most of the respected phone reviewers AND users have been dissing the camera software & begging time & again for better tuning of the very capable Sony IMX 890 main sensor. (The wide angle one is there just to add to the sensor count, it seems)

    But sadly Nothing has done Nothing so far.

    Their marketing philosophy seems to be, “This is what it is & will be, take it or leave it”.

    Short of changing to another brand, there’s precious little that owners can do.

      radhar bro i think they have improved the camera a lot, i don’t face any problem at all. what problem are you facing can you please upload with pictures so that other can also understand it.

        Also while recording videos in phone 2 focus hunting still presents! It is so loosing the Beauty of capturing videos 🫥! Video quality is still good🙌

        Most of the time camera struggles to focus on the subject while taking closeup videos or pictures. So will have to do AE/AF lock manually by using palm method. But on video mode that also is a mess, can’t do manual Focus on most of the cases on video mode. Can’t take Night Bokeh videos because of these issues. Please give us a major camera update.

        My nothing phone 2 camera quality is really poor, please advise how it can be fix, I feels it’s totally waste of my money in this phone, I purchased this phone because of camera only. My phone is up-to-date, nothing os 2.1a.

        Any solution for this camera issue.

        SahilChauhan you are comparing former flag ship phone against a mid range phone. The HW is not the same and processing is done in sw.

        The biggest issue I found with the lens on phone 2 is flare. To see this if you have any light above the camera it will flood into the lens. You can literally put your hand above the lens and you will see the flare goes away. The lens isn’t recessed like iPhone or mate 60 or galaxy 23.

        As far as processing most of the software work if you use Android system is integrating with the HW system and dealing with that which includes camera and all the post processing. Some of the post processing can be generic but hardware specific processing can’t. Comparing apple to nothing is ridiculous when apple has all the funds in the world. If u want that iPhone spec then get that.

        A fair criticism would be say vivo x100 vs nothing as it is in the same price range. But vivo is a huge company. Startups are startups.

          Totally agree, selfie looks nice until I press shutter button and see retouched (retouching is off) result …. skin is blurred like beautify on Chinese phones

          Horrible result
