- Camera blur
Users of non-Ultra Galaxy S23 devices complain that whenever they capture images using the primary camera, the focussed part looks sharp, while the edges and sides get blurred.
Since both smartphones feature the same camera setup as their predecessors, it looks like, the software is causing the problem on some units. Besides, big camera firmware is on the way for the S23 series. Read more here.
These smartphone users are having many such issues and problems, which can be seen on Community, Reddit, and Twitter. Hopefully, Samsung will soon fix them all in the upcoming updates.

According to the info, Samsung Korean community moderator revealed that the Galaxy S23 series won’t get any camera focussed update, separately, however, the April 2023 software will include content (such as bug fixes and optimization) for the camera.
It’s worth mentioning that the team is ready to begin the rollout after putting the final finishing touches. However, the moderator denied revealing the exact release date of the Galaxy S23’s April software update. We assume the rollout may start in the next week.
Apart from this, the moderator disclosed that the company will share details of camera-related content included in the S23 series’ April 2023 firmware. As soon as the update starts rolling out to the public, the development in charge will share what new fixes are applied to the camera.
It was reported that some Galaxy S23 and S23 Plus units that have been manufactured in Vietnam have issues in focusing on nearby subjects such as pages of books. The company will hopefully solve the severe focusing error with the April 2023 update.
The Galaxy S23 Ultra is the first Samsung smartphone, which brings a 200-megapixel camera sensor to offer lossless photography. The other two siblings have the same camera sensors as their predecessors, but the company has enhanced their photography abilities with software and processor.
Galaxy S21 and Galaxy S22
Recently, we’ve reported that the Galaxy S21 and Galaxy S22 series will get the Galaxy S23’s intelligent Image Clipper feature in April 2023. Accordingly, it looks like April is going to be an important month for both Samsung and Galaxy consumers, when it comes to software deployment.
