iPhone 13 Pro horrible photos, blurry and too sharp sometimes, worst than iPhone X

Hi, I just received my new iPhone 13 Pro, I use to have iPhone X, and I am very dissapointed of the photos quality, some of them are extremly sharp and some of them very blurry, like a phone camera of 15 years ago.

I am sure it has to be a software or configuration issue, I bought the new 13 pro just for the camera, but for now, I trust more my old iPhone X, it takes better shots in general.


Can you help me fix

Please also upload your samples to the most popular thread discussing the very same issue where more than 1000 people clicked "I have this problem, too" 253181534 - you have posted very good samples similar to what I taken but haven't time to upload. The cause the users suspect is over processing done by the SmartHDR algorithm that cannot be turned off in iPhone 13 + iOS 15, resulting in samples like yours or faces being applied a cartoon-like look.


In my personal opinion I don't think Apple is going to fix it in iOS 15, but please keep us posted what Apple support will tell you. Also separate from Apple support, please complain to Camera app feedback https://www.apple.com/feedback/camera/
