Nothing Phone (2a) - Camera Feedback

Aadhithya97 AGC 9.2 with config for nothing 2a https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-BigKaka/f/dl64/

Constant1n is it stable since I tried higher version of gcam unable to get sharper images

The blacks before the picture was clicked were perfect but as soon as it was processed, the color became absolutely horrible. Please fix it

AshutoshJha_N9LNgyOD8c it’s display problem bro trust me

VaibhavRanjanJha It really is not, T sent the photo to another phone and the blacks are still very weird. almost pastel like.

Just got this phone, nothing os is really great, i like everything about this phone apart from the front camera. Its really blurry and my previous phone–a 4 year old samsung, is better than phone 2a. I know that nothing really cares about its community and have fixed some camera issues promptly in the past, therefore I want to request team nothing to please fix this issue.

The front camera on the Nothing Phone 2A is blurry, affecting the quality of photos and videos, making them not detailed and crisp enough. It would be great if this could be addressed in future updates.

I honestly regret buying the Nothing Phone (2a). The camera is completely unreliable. From day one, trying to scan QR codes in apps like WhatsApp and Google Pay opens the front camera instead of the rear one, making it impossible to scan anything. That’s not just inconvenient — it breaks basic functionality expected from any modern smartphone.

What makes it worse is that the default Camera app itself stops working randomly. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t, and I’ve had to restart the phone multiple times just to take a single photo. I’ve cleared cache, reset permissions, even booted into safe mode — where the camera magically works fine — proving this is a Nothing OS software issue. No third-party apps to blame.

Right now, I’m sitting in a service center, wasting my time trying to get this fixed. I didn’t expect to spend my day this way when I bought a brand-new phone. This is supposed to be a premium, clean experience — but what I got is buggy, frustrating, and honestly embarrassing. This is not acceptable at this price point.

I chose this phone for its hype and clean Android experience, but the camera issues alone have completely killed my trust. Fix this fast, Nothing. Or stop pretending you’re making flagship-quality devices.

P.S- I am so depressed right now i used chat gpt to write this review

I decided to play around with the expert camera mode. Manual focus can easily reach macro focus.

I’ve been facing issues with the ultra wide lens shots in my np (2a) device from past few weeks. The images/videos captured by ultra wide camera are too blurry and lacks details. Also, there is 1-2 seconds lag after i take any photo with the ultra wide lens.

I think I’ve been facing the issues after the previous two updates that I’ve recieved in my device as these issues were this big before a couple of weeks.

I hope the issues will be resolved asap with upcoming updates.

I’ve also attached two pictures of the issue to get a better idea about the issues. (One picture is of main camera and the other one has been taken from the ultra wide camera which i want you to fix

I request to the developer pls push update for improvement of front camera because it’s takes noise pics all time day and low light in both conditions.otherwise I am happy to use my nothing phone 2a.
