I am not a fanboy. Just telling the truth. I have my phone (1) for over a year and my camera experience is really great. You who expect camera from S25 ultra on 400€ phone, it’s your problem. Camera on Phone (1) is better than any phone in its category, bigger sensor and better optics that others….

    With this latest update I have had several reboots and freezes in the Youtube app.

    I think the battery is draining quickly, and it doesn’t go into ā€œbattery usageā€ to see what it could be.

    Not at all happy with this update!

    Wolverine same is with me on nos 2.0 it was soo good loved it but after 2.5 it’s worse only option is gcam now

    Stefan I regret if you feel troubled with my comments, but you need to know that this OS does not behave the same way on all nothing phones. My phone has 3.0 and the images are blurry and it has only got worse with every update since 2.5. many users share this experience and none of them have a s25.

    I’m happy that your camera is good.

    I have a habit of doing a factory reset when a major upate o.s. comes along so I get rid of all the errors and my phone is clean and fast. I make a backup of my data and reinstall all apps. This is inconvenient and time consuming but… the phone thanks me!

      Merged 1 post from Iam not getting Nothing phone 1 circle to search update .

      Anonymous371 I do it as well, but there is something in the camera that just won’t set itself right. Hence a request for camera update that’s perhaps never coming around. 😤

        Wolverine I understand your disappointment, but I don’t understand this difference between your camera and my camera… And yet we have the same phone!

        Maybe it’s got something to do with how some users suffer from frequent reboots on their phones after an update while others’ phones do not get such an issues. Even if they both have followed the same steps like formatting etc.

        This is why camera issues persists.

          Anonymous371 if not fanboy huh! then some moderators using a burner account??

          I’ve seen your comments and felt like it somehow! I might be wrong but it’s either fanboy or burner…

          Stefan I had OnePlus Nord 2 and Samsung A55 which were stolen and after that I bought Nothing Phone 1 in mid 2023.

          I can clearly say Nothing Phone 1 is one of the best budget phone with lots of good and useful features than other phones if you compare but id disagree with you or any other fanboy on the Camera compartment!

          Those Nord 2 and A55 were midrange as well but they had better camera than Phone 1.

            Wolverine You have a Firmware EEA or Global?… This could be the cause of the differences between the various phones??? (I have EEA firmware)

            OviGarry I posted some pictures taken with my Phone 1, can you tell that is a bad camera?… That says I’m a fanboy?… If my phone works well, within its mid-range limits (it’s not a Top Range) … That says I’m a fanboy?… When some users reported that the ā€œcircle to searchā€ function was not working I posted a video where I demonstrated that on my phone it worked fine… does this say that I’m a fanboy?… Should I feel guilty because my phone works well?

              Anonymous371 I never said it’s a bad camera but it’s not that good either!! btw, can you tell me which photos are from which phones?
              These photos are taken from different phones, which I mentioned earlier! let’s hear you now and I’ll give you the correct answer later fr

                OviGarry Dear friend OviGarry, English is not my native language, I use translator and there may be some misunderstandings.

                I am not able to know which cameras took your photos, let’s get back to the topic… I never said that NP1 is a ā€œcamera Phoneā€ but when some users said that the camera is horrible I posted some photos (I resized the photos so as not to weigh down the forum server) to say that it is a good camera, not ā€œexcellentā€ā€¦ when some users reported many bugs, battery drain, frequent reboots, no new feature and many others, I simply reported that this did not happen to my phone.

                This must be useful to understand and solve problems not to cause conflicts between users of the community, this should be useful to the technicians of ā€œNothingā€ to understand why some phones work well but other phones have problems (I hope they are here to read this information), I hope I have explained my point of view.

                edit:

                If you want I can post the ā€œoriginalā€ photos to show you that they were taken with NP1.

                (One thing makes me very angry about NP1… eSim feature missing!!! 😔)

                  Anonymous371 I get your point, and I agree that the Nothing Phone is great well almost great with a good camera. But after the 2.5/2.6 update, the quality did drop, just like many users said. It still takes good photos, but not as good as before. Also, I tried to show some photos to see the difference with other phones! To me A55 and Nord 2 used to take much more better photos than Phone 1 before 2.5/2.6 update now it’s usually bleh…

                  I also agree that some people post random complaints without even trying to fix things. But I felt like you were defending every issue, even when there’s no real solution. Aside from that, I feel frustrated because the developers are not doing anything to address this (camera) situation and try to fix it with next update!

                  By the way, my three photos are original. I could not upload a couple other cz of photo mb size I guess!

                  @NexPG The first is from Nord 2, the second from Phone 1, and the third from A55!

                    OviGarry Young brand, I think they are too busy promoting new phones and don’t have time to fix the issues of ā€œoldā€ phones.

                    Even with new phones (despite repeated requests from this community) they continue to make mistakes… the new Phone 3a doesn’t have eSim support… only 3a Pro, this is very serious issue for a new project!!!

                    (I don’t want to appear as a NP1 fanboy, that’s why I change my nick and avatar šŸ˜‚)

                      Anonymous371 from India, not sure what firmware version it is. But Nothing is really not worried about fixing the camera and the OS is bumpy for different users. Some get reboots, some don’t. Some have better camera ,some don’t. Meanwhile Carl is not bothered.

                      Sorry to mention the term ā€˜fanboy’, I started the nonsense and it has snowballed.

                        Firmware (bot) After OS 3.0 update VoNR enabling switch is missing in Phone 1. Even in Developer options its not available
