Night mode camera has lens flare and dull sky on S23 Ultra

[Shahriar91]

I recently bought a S23 Ultra. Updated it to latest April update. But when shooting pics in night mode, I am getting too much lens flares near every lights. Also the sky looks hazzy and dull. My previous phone (Oneplus 11) had no such issues. (My lens was clean and no protector on it)Is it normal? A flagship phone from Samsung should have better night mode than other brands. Samsung should focus on this

this shouldn't happen.
generally when the lens has smudge marks, you get the hazey effect.. but you're saying it was clean.

best bet is to get it checked in the service centre as there might be camera lens issue

Camera comparison video from YouTube channel "TechTablets". See the samples of him. Same issue. I dont think It's issue of my camera lens. I think It's due to software optimization

Remove any lens protector if applied

[Shahriar91]

No lens protector installed

Update:
I tested another two S23 ultra in same condition today. Same things happen with "night mode". Also "scene optimiser on" in this situation. If I turn it off, it produces less lens flare and less blurry pic. Something is wrong with night mode optimization in S23 Ultra
