How do I fix the selfie camera of my iPhone 15 Pro Max?

It seems that whenever I take pictures even if front of bright light, the iPhone 15 pro max camera dulls it. The processed picture is never as bright the way it was in the picture! My iPhone 11 preserves the bright light but it seems as if the 15 pro max dulls it so it’s never as bright. Is there a way this could be changed???

I could see that my 15 plus selfie camera images are turning way darker once the photo is clicked. It gives clean bright image before clicking. Once the photo is taken the photo turns darker and the background goes bright. Seems after processing the photo turns dark. Any settings to correct this? Please provide suggestions.

Thank you

I am so upset I had an XR so obviously I waited to get a new phone and so was so excited to get the ultimate IPhone 15 Pro max because I heard so much about the camera!!! Any ways $1500 dollars later with accessories I took a selfie and thought that maybe my new makeup was the problem grainy and dark but went on line to find out it is the phone!!!!!! Are u kidding me really probably going to take it back? I’d Samsung the answer????

So much money spent for a front camera that looks horrible !!!!! The over processing is horrible !!!

APPLE you need to address this issue ASAP!!

Its disappointing for so many people who got this phone for its camera to have such a horrible, bad quality, pixeled, grainy photos from the front camera .

Bad to say, but Xiaomi seems to have better quality in its front camera .

unbelievable

PLEASE FIX IT!!

Experiencing exactly the same issue.

Dark, grainy, unnatural photos from the front camera of the IPhone 15 pro.

It’s so disappointing.

Truly disappointing.

We spent so much money for the latest iPhone model and we finally have a front camera which is worse comparing to many older models.

Even the front camera of the IPhone 8 Plus looks much more natural and aesthetically pleasing .


Apple you need to fix this issue and STOP OVER PROCESS PHOTOS !!!!!

Hi guys try increasing the exposure setting before taking the picture. For some reason after taking the picture the picture becomes dull (like some filter is put on - in a bad way) but when you take the picture with exposure increased once the picture is taken and processed it doesn’t dull it down as much. So the picture remains less brighter than the exposure level but still bright. I hope this made sense.


Edit: it really is working 😭😭 The texture and all is so much better. I’m basically taking the picture at the max exposure. Let me know if it works

Iphone 15pro max front camera is so terrible. I got this phone because I'm a selfie person. How can my head be turning other ways after taking the picture? It looks good before a click, after clicking it be like who the f is this. Is their any reasonable settings I can do or apple have to overhaul it from their end.
