Say "cheese", then rate this thread to express how photos taken with the Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite come out. A higher rating indicates that photos offer rich color (without over-saturating), sharp detail (with all subjects in-focus), and appropriate exposure (with even lighting).

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

The camera is the weakpoint of this phone. For the price you pay for it, I would have expected a much more decent camera.

Attached photo was done in a bright room but you can clearly see that the noise is present and the details of the wooden floor disappear.



In order to be able to compare the quality of the above photo, I added another one that was took using an iphone 11. Same room, same light.

I know it's not fair to compare it to a phone that costs the same as almost two s10 lite phones but I'm guessing that the SE 2020 which is on the same level will beat it.

The screen is nice though ...

Honestly fine.
I dont know why people gave this a low rating. I feel like people are expecting to much from Phone camera's.

For an average human being that takes a pics for memories or casual photo albums its more than fine. Enough options to choose from.

I do miss the lack of tap to focus, unless i missed it somewhere in the settings.

Hi people,

The cams are ok in good light situations i think for the price of the phone!
Only in low light situations it will have not so good performance. The aperture is only 2.0 so for that aperture is not so strange. Try to get as much as light as possible and your photo's will be ok!

I have a question, is this camera able to take RAW photos? And can you use a third party app to change the shutter speed?

One area that the camera impressed with was digital zoom (8x). Daylight pictures from 20 feet away were good. Guess that's one advantage of a high megapixel count.

Picture from youtube

Edit:
Now that i have the phone i think its very disappointing, can't make sharp pictures. Whatever camera app i use, zoomed in to the picture its not sharp, compared with ipad pro 2017. Everything is soft. People complain about it allot with s10 series. I didnt expect miracles from this phone but it is just ridiculous if every photo is to soft.
