Samsung a71 camera, can I get better?

edscdk · 21 Aug 2021 at 19:41

I can look at YouTube reviews all day, but I wondered if anyone had personal experience.. I'm getting into taking pics and videos much more..

If there a 6.5+ phone that would take videos / pics noticeably better?

I notice a lot of pics are spoilt by the subject moving so the image is blurred..

Any advice is appreciated

Are you talking same price as an A71 or any price?

Alternatively, try GCam on the phone: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/google-camera-support-discussion.4053305/

According to that thread, this version seems to do well: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog1429/

S21 ultra has a really powerful camera.

The last couple of Samsungs I had - the Note 10+ and the S20 FE were both a bit rubbish when it came to “one shot and done” photography in anything less than great light. I don’t know if Samsung have nailed it with the S21 Ultra but loads of reviews say it’s an immense camera phone. It’ll likely come on sale again sometime soon to bring it within budget.

The Pixel range are also widely reported to be very good point and shoot phones. The Pixel 6 will likely be released in October. I’d probably hang on and see what it offers.
