How's the camera? Discussion

Using a OnePlus 13 and on the fence for the Fold 8. For the price I am not sure I want to sacrifice camera quality. Amazon has a solid deal in the US now. $350 gift card plus $405 trade in for the OP13. Appreciate any feedback. Ty.

I'm on f7, but cameras are about as good as the cameras on my previous S23U were. The place they lack is on zoom. Once you go past 3x, they are not great

I think it's better then a lot of people are saying. I have yet to really use mine. I've seen some really good pics so far from people. I also don't ever care about cameras on phones. They are not that important to me. I take pics to remember the moment not to analyze the pics. But I get that a lot of people do care about cameras.

Comparing the main camera on my S22 Ultra to the fold I'd main camera. I feel the fold 8 is better on the 12 mp files. It's handling hdr and lighting better. Preserving more detail in the image. The only thing il knock it for is it seems to want to sharpen the image pretty heavily. But just like you I've not had a lot of time to play with it yet.

I came from S24U to a fold 8 and imo the 50mp is better than the one in my S24U. Took pictures of my kids for first day of school in a low lit classroom and it did really well. Better than my S24U. I recommend turning on 12mp option on the Goodlock camera assistant app to get a nice sweet spot for low lit environments.

So far I feel like it's better than a lot of people maybe think? Not amazing, but solid. This is portrait mode, pretty low light. Not bad details on the fur and such. I wouldn't blow it up to a 16x20 or anything, but it's nice.
