✨️ Samsung camera fix 👇

To make any hardware upgrade shine, Samsung needs to ditch Stock camera — not the Camera UI.

Problem:

1️⃣ Stock camera = heavy processing, fake detail.
2️⃣ Pro RAW = pure sensor, but single frame = noisy & moiré mess. Editing just kills more detail.
3️⃣ Default output stuck at 12MP.
4️⃣ Expert RAW (OneUI 7) was the sweet spot: multi-frame RAW stacking + higher bit depth → cleaner shadows, natural texture, ND-like HDR.
5️⃣ OneUI 8 broke it. Expert RAW now feels closer to stock → more noise, less natural texture, HDR not the same. The unique look is gone.

✨️Solution (simple):

• Make Expert RAW the default stock pipeline with 24MP default output.
• Extend Virtual Aperture to all lenses → fully replace Portrait mode.
• Upgrade Pro RAW with burst stacking (option) to cut noise & moiré.
• Add Fast Capture mode.
• Add Long-Range zoom mode.

● Explanation:

Expert RAW today is capped at 20x.
So Samsung should split stock cam into sections:

🔹 0.6x–20x → Expert RAW pipeline
(multi-frame, natural HDR, ND-like look).
– Auto point-and-shoot (RAW/HEIC/JPEG)
– All manual controls & Expert RAW features → this becomes the true stock camera.

🔹 20x–100x → Long-Range section
(stacked telephoto + optional AI assist: medium, maximum, etc.).
Fast Capture Mode:

• Motion Shot for moving subjects
• Fast “old Portrait” option for quick snaps
(yes, quality drops a bit, but it’s fast).

• Pro Mode RAW for pure RAW

✨️Result?

📸 Point-and-shoot users → natural, sharp photos every time.
🎨 Pro users → real 16-bit RAW, manual control in one app, pure RAW option still there.
🔭 Telephoto lovers → usable long-range shots without cartoon zoom.
📷 Portrait → taken to the next level with Virtual Aperture, while the old Portrait mode reserved for fast capture.

Samsung already had the formula on S25 Ultra Expert RAW (OneUI 7).

They just need to bring it back & make it standard.

✨️Conclusion:
Samsung fix is simple 👇

Stock cam = overprocessed
Pro RAW = noisy & moiré mess
Expert RAW on S25U OneUI 7 was perfect, natural texture, ND-like HDR, minimal noise. Then OneUI 8 ruined it.

Solution?
Make Expert RAW the stock pipeline, extend Virtual Aperture to all lenses, add Long-Range mode, Fast Capture mode & stacked Pro RAW.

@horusphy @Aztech1101 @UniverseIce When it come to telephoto 3x and 10x oppo far better check my highlight i make a full comparison for each category including telephoto and macro

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@BeingMohitAg Tbh In my opinion Oppo find X9 Ultra best camera sytem in 2026

[W @Wvisioncreation]

Samsung is losing its mind! 🤦‍♂️

Removing the 3x camera instead of upgrading it, keeping an aging 5x sensor rather than moving to something like an HPC or HP5 200MP sensor, and now rumours of paid Galaxy AI features?

It's getting harder to justify the direction.

Why do we buy Samsung? For One UI, Good Lock and Expert RAW. That's what keeps many of us in the Galaxy ecosystem.

But if another brand delivers a similarly powerful software experience, customization and camera tools, I’ll seriously consider making it my primary device.

Samsung, don't take your loyal users for granted. Give us reasons to stay. 📱

The complete camera specifications of the Samsung Galaxy S27 series: Disappointing

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@duckkyxoxo @Aztech1101 @UniverseIce Nice camera but i prefer the ultra cause a complete camera system with 10x optical lens that's why i am waiting the 10x Ultra

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@Francesco_G92 True bro

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@Aztech1101 @UniverseIce That's why i buy Oppo Find X9 Ultra as second device for camera and i will buy the 10x Ultra as well but i still need One UI as main

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@4HLDisciple @UniverseIce Fuck you block

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@Jagan_CFC Wait Oppo 10x Ultra

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@VetrivelSengodu Exactly bro we expect higher price so give us what we deserve , dont be Apple

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@1nenigma Agreed 💯

Samsung Auto lost badly in that challenging 10x zoom scene in my previous comparison. But what happens when we move to RAW? Can Expert RAW make a difference? 🤔

OPPO Find X9 Ultra vs. Galaxy S26 Ultra
Master Mode vs. Expert RAW

Both shot in RAW. Same scene, different processing approaches.

A- OPPO Original
B-Samsung Original
C-OPPO RAW edited in Lightroom
D- Samsung RAW edited in Lightroom

Now let's see what the RAW files can really deliver. 📸

Which result do you prefer?

10x in challenging scenes: Samsung is losing badly. 📸

The detail is missing, and red color reproduction is noticeably wrong. I tried both 10x Auto at 12MP (0.0 EV) and 9.9x Auto at 24MP (-0.9 EV). Neither exposure adjustment nor higher resolution fixes the problem.

OPPO Find X9 Ultra vs. Galaxy S26 Ultra

A- OPPO 10x Auto 12MP
B- OPPO 10x Hasselblad Mode 50MP
C- Samsung 10x Auto, 12MP, 0.0 EV
D- Samsung 9.9x Auto, 24MP, -0.9 EV

And this raises a bigger question: if Samsung keeps using an older, single-layer Sony 5x sensor in the upcoming S27 Ultra, what should customers expect?

SoC, ISP and software improvements alone aren’t enough to compensate for aging camera hardware.

Samsung needs to upgrade the sensors, not just keep improving the processing. 📸

@anonymousUSXX Best camera of 2026

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@iixfrzn I think it may involve not using Samsung Semiconductor products; also, it is a matter of cost, as Samsung does not trust its customers to pay more for better specs, yet they want to charge for AI. That’s ridiculous

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@VimalR01 @UniverseIce Galaxy AI should remain free, unlike ChatGPT , Cloud ect.. we buy a phone the marketing as AI phone not AI App ; I will keep saying that even if they offer good features, and what they offer is limitations, not features, such as how many photos can be created with AI, etc.

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@4HLDisciple @UniverseIce I buy Samsung for One UI, not for the camera; I need a Samsung device as my main device, and I made that clear here, so watch your language when you talk to someone you don't know.

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@VimalR01 @UniverseIce No one will buy that

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@Francesco_G92 Yep

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@kai84m Exactly same Apple

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@thatjoshguy That's sad

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@theonecid Yes, the Pro is actually the Plus, so why four devices, then?

[W @Wvisioncreation]

@theonecid The Pro is a joke and Ultra is not Ultra anymore
