iPhone SE 2020 photo colors too vivid

I'm an artist and I use my iPhone to take photos of the pieces I sell. My husband bought me a iPhone SE 2020 to replace my SE. However, when uploading the SE 2020 photos, they are extremely vivid, oversaturated, and not true-to-life. My old SE took good photos with true-to-live colors. Attached is a comparison. (This is not one of my pieces btw, it's a Scott Naismith print.)

Is there anyway to change this in-phone? If I adjust the images in photoshop I have to both desaturate and lighten the images, which is very annoying. I get that some people would up the saturation in their photos anyway and thus find this desirable, but for my purposes it's bad.

Even just candid photos outside look technicolor. The fake oversaturated look looks terrible to me. I had a Pixel 3 before this phone and can't believe how much I've downgraded my camera.


It seems more likely that it's software than hardware. My guess is that it's a filter that I don't want it to be run through. Is there another camera app that can be used?
