Samsung downgrade Expert RAW to rush release update,.that’s my theory 👇

The advanced algorithm introduced with the S25 launch software is no longer being used.

OneUI 8 likely triggered an error in the image processing pipeline, so Samsung hurried to push an update using the old S24 Ultra algorithm, just to match iPhone 17 launch timing.relying on the fact that not many users used Expert RAW.

Fold 7 Expert RAW v5.0.01.2 works perfectly on OneUI 8. But S25 Ultra only gets v5.0.02.17. The interesting part: the old Expert RAW logo still shows on APK Mirror for the new broken version only (suggesting old build variants under the new version).

This isn’t a minor app glitch. it’s a fundamental pipeline failure caused by OneUI 8.

Maybe not intentional, but the effect is the same: S25 Ultra users are disappointed and losing trust in Samsung’s updates.

And for users: stop chasing updates like crazy. You’re only benefiting clickbait accounts, not real users.

Here's Fold 7 1x Expert RAW v5.0.01.2 that isn't compatible with S25 Ultra.


Expert RAW – noisy, weird color, artifacts
• ND filter – clean & noise-free (needs more steady hands)
• Auto – decent, but still some noise & artifacts

Why? Bug? Or just to make S26 feel like an upgrade?
Samsung you better wake up. Or upr downfall Begins
