I am beyond frustrated and frankly, appalled by the severe and unacceptable degradation of my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra's camera performance since updating to UI 7. What was once a flagship camera experience, a primary reason I chose this phone, has been utterly ruined. My device is now practically useless for serious photography.
The most glaring issue is the complete collapse of image clarity, especially when using the zoom functionality. Any attempt to zoom, even minimally, transforms what should be a sharp image into a pixelated, smeared, and utterly unrecognizable mess. Faces blur, textures vanish, and the entire scene looks like a distorted painting. This isn't a minor bug; it's a catastrophic failure.
But the problems extend beyond just zoom. Even in standard photo and video modes, the sharpness and vibrant detail that defined the S23 Ultra are gone. Photos consistently appear soft, lifeless, and grainy, particularly in low-light conditions which were previously a strength. The autofocus is also now unreliable, leading to many missed and blurry shots.
This is not what I paid for. Samsung, to push an update that so severely cripples a fundamental feature of your premium flagship device is simply unacceptable. It's an insult to your loyal customer base and a profound breach of trust. We invest in top-tier technology, not in products that are actively made worse by your own software.
Is anyone else experiencing this severe camera degradation on their S23 Ultra after the UI 7 update? Please, share your experiences here! The more users who report this with specific details and examples (if you can attach them), the harder it will be for Samsung to ignore.
Samsung needs to prioritize an immediate firmware update that specifically addresses and reverses this severe camera quality regression. My S23 Ultra currently delivers a profoundly inferior photographic experience, and I demand the original, high-quality performance back.

💯 % Agreed with you Anushrii, UI 7 update spoiled our S23 Ultra overall performance specially battery drain problem, Camera quality degraded, fonts size, style positioning is not up to the mark. Battery 🔋 % not clearly visible. Samsung should test before rolling out new software update. Any idea when we will get patch update to fix these problems?
