It's not a competition, relax. I own the same phone as you and I find it excellent from all points of view. However, if you don't see certain defects in the photos, I can't help you. If you want to see what a similar sensor can do with a gcam, I'll post you another link. With good software this phone allows you to leave a compact camera at home so i want it.You cannot complain about something than not back it up with examples.
Show me some examples of good photos taken with another smartphone to back up your claims the S21 U is a bad camera system.
Am not talking about pictures of a sofa, but actual good photos you have taken with a better smart phone camera system. Talk is cheap, so follow up with real action please.
Lol nobody zooms in that much. You'll see the same results with any smartphone.It's not about my work... It's about the difference between decent and very good. In all of your pictures, if you zoom a Little bit you can see agressive oversharpening and a lot of noise and aliasing. I've got the same problems with my s21 ultra. I Hope Samsung Will fix it
They're all raw shots from the Xiaomi as well as the use of gcam? IrrelevantIt's not a competition, relax. I own the same phone as you and I find it excellent from all points of view.

Al the crops are made at 100% zoom in PS
Eh what? You don't need to zoom on the 10x photos to see the sharpening artifacts if you're viewing them on a PC. They look unnatural because of it. Only on a small screen like a phone they look sharp.Lol nobody zooms in that much. You'll see the same results with any smartphone.

Don't get why some people take criticism of the image processing like it's some personal insult or battle of photography skills.
Pretty good photos there. but try outdoors. I find outdoors with sunlight and bright sky behind the trees, is where things look weird. Low contrast backgrounds tend to look better.Sorry but where's the oversharpening ? I don't see it, especially not on my snapdragon model.
They're more than good enough for social media and as good as any other phone including the p40 pro plus which is the only other phone that comes close in zoom quality. There isn't many phones out there that don't overprocess their telephoto shots.

Your 3rd picture definitely shows it though, has a bit of an oil painting look when viewed on a monitor (27 inch 1440p or 34 inch ultrawide 1440p in my case, 1080p probably wouldn't have the resolution for it to matter).
I'm still on the Feb AUB9 software with an Exynos phone, maybe March sw improves this.
I've attached two photos I've taken that I think demonstrate this well. You can see it just does not have the resolution to capture the radio tower properly and the upscaling + sharpening has just made it look strange, and you can see a faint white outline on the hill due to the sharpening.
The other one is not too bad but has a weird unnatural look to it, which I think again is over-sharpening. Trees in sunlight seem to demonstrate the unnatural sharpening most clearly.
What's your point? You able to get good photos in some specific situations means all criticisms are invalid? Way to bury your head in the sand.I sometimes wonder if some users are intentionally ignoring some of the posts, to avoid challenge of their believes.

Camera performance
Can someone comment on camera performance, specifically indoor shots with pets. How well does it pick up fur? I've just got the S21 and I'm sending it back because the camera software is pretty bad. Wondering if it's the same story with the Ultra...forum.xda-developers.com

Yeah it does sound like it's worse with the ExynosYour problem there is the ISP the Exynos just tends to overcompensate by the lack of detail it can gather compared to the snapdragon by upping digital sharpening

So you are sayin that no One open at 100% a 12mp picture on a monitor or TV screen right? then for me it is useless to continue arguing.You don't seem to understand anything about photography, have you seen the 100% crop of the canvas print I have on my wall taken using a DSLR??
The subject matter isn't even in focus, yet when printed on to canvas it looks fine.
No one views photos at 100% crop unless you are a pro making a living from selling photos, in which case buy a DSLR.
The S21 U lets you take amazing photos in nearly all conditions for a huge number of subject matters. To moan about the photo quality at 100% is like moaning F1 cars have too big a turning circle.
No camera system perfect, not even the £6k Sony A1.
Don't forget this is a camera PHONE, in addition to taking photos at 240mm zoom it also plays games, does calls, internet banking etc. Frankly I find it amazingly the S21 U can produce any images in the some of the situations I've tried to use it, let alone good ones.
Actually yours pictures are the only One that look really good with 10x. If you can do something like that outdoor i really appreciate. I keep saying that the sensor is very good the problem is the software and these photos show me that thanksI sometimes wonder if some users are intentionally ignoring some of the posts, to avoid challenge of their believes.

have you ever owned the device or do you speak by hearsay ?. i now have s21 ultra and i wouldn't change it for anyone, being the most complete device on the market. but the photo compartment has to be fixed. the problem is the software since the sensor is excellent. This is taken with the p40 pro + 10x, impossible to achieve with the s21 ultra (look at the details). we have to expect something similar from Samsung.
iPhones..... Ahahahahahahahahahfirst of all that picture is horrible and if you cant produce this picture with s21 ultra then return it. something is wrong.
couple of pages back i shared a picture with 30x zoom with more details!!
and Yes, I owned the device and ITS HORRIBLE !!! the worst camera experience i had on a phone with "Potential"
Check some videos i took on YouTube with many devices including xiaomi mi 10 mi 10 ultra p40 pro plus and even vivo x50 pro plus! so actually the answer is yes i know what i am talking about
Now back to the P40 pro plus.
the worst device with ZOOM no matter what DXomark is telling you ! jumping jacks while zooming in video check that in my moon shot video using the device. then compare it to zooming in video using the mi 10 ultra and vivo x50Pro+ ! the difference is huge its not even funny
darkest and most grainy pictures when its less than ideal conditions.
worthless color science in dark mood compared to anything before the RYYB joke they came up with since the P30, am i wrong ?
Technology spoiled us maybe but long story short, the best camera always will be pixel phones followed by iPhones, and samsungs now, Huawei can kiss the dust.

Stock night mode will always have an edge on being able to bring in more light in less time. With that said, its biggest weakness would be color accuracy. These photos are taken in complete darkness with just a laptop screen providing light, handheld rather than using a tripod. Stock takes 5 seconds to capture, merging however many frames with an exif exposure of 1/3 seconds.Can you post night mode in darkness on main cam vs stock with some fur like textured products?
