If you’ve noticed that your Galaxy S23 or Galaxy S23+ has been taking blurry photos lately, you’re not alone. Samsung recognized that there is an issue that causes the main camera to take pictures with blurred areas. Fortunately, a software update is planned.
The issue with the cameras on the Galaxy S23 and S23+ was spotted earlier this year and was dubbed a “banana blur”.
Photos have a ring-shaped (or banana-shaped) blurand the problem seems to get worse in close-ups.
A publication of samsung community poland confirmed that this is a real problem. Apparently, the problem is caused by the large aperture of the phone’s wide-angle camera.
While this should help with night photography, Samsung says it may be causing some areas of your photos to be blurry and out of focus. apparently heClose-up shots are also more prone to this, especially if high resolution mode is used.which is not compatible with focus enhancer.
While the deadline for the promised patch has not been confirmed, Samsung mentioned some solutions to try to mitigate the problem. These solutions include taking a step back if your subject is less than 12 inches away, while another suggests taking photos in portrait orientation rather than landscape.
This issue was first reported in early March, so It is surprising that Samsung took almost three months to respond.
