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

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 bought the iPhone 15 pro and the front camera picture quality is so trash, it is super dull and grainy. It makes my face textured and weird. APPLE PLS FIX THIS ASAP!!

This is the worst selfie camera ever. It doesn’t matter how much good lighting I have, my pics come out dark, grainy and I look terrible!! I REGRET buying it!! The lack of response from Apple to address this is appalling.

I have the 15 pro and my pictures come out horrible. I’m so shocked at apple with this new camera for the 15. I should’ve kept my iPhone X. The pictures came out way better. No matter how nice the sun/lighting is at that time you take the picture, it’s still going to come out dull, grainy or overly sharp looking. There’s no beauty or softness to these photos from the iPhone 15 pro. I regret buying this phone.

I just bought the iphone 15 pro max last week and am so disappointed with the selfie camera. The pics on my 11 were much better than this. Everything I have taken on the 15 pro max is dark and grainy and distorted. Horrible. Why is this happening? Apple, will you fix? I now hate my new phone.

I have the same issue. Have seen many others report this issue too - this is not advice fault it’s an iPhone 15 issue. I had to speak to a couple of Apple senior tech support people and one admitted it seemed to be a software issue. He’s filed a report and said he would let me know if Apple HQ we’re planning on creating a fix in an iOS update. It’s been 2 weeks and I’m still waiting to hear back.

Same with me. I bought iPhone 15 recently and the front camera shows a good preview before capturing but after capturing the capture is very crude and distorted. APPLE FIX THIS ISSUE ASAP!

It's so disappointing isn't it. My Apple tech contact has gone quiet. Maybe we should share in on Twitter and tag Apple if they aren't going to pay attention to all the community complaints....

I have the same problem, I bought the new Iphone 15 pro max 3 days ago, it is my first Iphone I was excited about it, then my excitement was turned into disappointment the quality after taking the photo is unbelievably poor, before taking the shot it looks pretty good in the viewfinder, but after the taking shot, the quality drops in an unexpected way, it makes you look so dull and ages you by years. I hope it is a software issue that apple would solve with an update asap. All this made me so frustrated, and felt like i was cheated.

No still nothing. Everyone having this issue should call Apple support to complain and report the issue so that Apple fix this in their next iOS. At the moment the support team aren’t really aware of it which is strange.

And insist that it isn’t your photo setting or device fault and get put through to the senior tech team.

I had to take a screen grab of what my selfie shot looked like on screen right before taking the image; and then sent that to the first line chat support so they could see the difference.

The selfie shots literally ages me by 10

years 😂

Also having this issue. The picture looks like it’s going to be good and then once it’s taken it comes out really dull and bad - also ages me a lot 😂 please fix this apple!

Hi Johnny,

I have an iPhone 15 Pro and having the same problem with my front camera dullness. I took your advice, contacted Apple Support, did the analytics & diagnostic test, and did a reformat, and the problem still persists.

To the extent, I went to the Apple tech store and the technician did the same test again, the results were all good, but the front camera was still dull, and was told nothing was wrong since the test was all green light.

I'm not sure if these are defects or not, but I really hope Apple will do something about it. Even my 13 Pro was better than this 15 Pro.

Thank you.

My iPhone 11 camera was far better! I read someone’s comment that if I try taking a selfie by swiping left on the white circle instead of just clicking it on the camera app it doesn’t over enhance the photos. Although this has been working to some extent but my photos look hazy and unstable by clicking with this method and it doesn’t allow me to click live pictures. Apple please please fix this issue in the next update. Please give us an option of turning off Deep Fusion

i recently bought an iphone 15 pro. Even i have this issue. The front camera is really bad - photos are dark and grainy. this is really an issue which is being highlighted in other apple forums and on reddit as well.

i couldn't fix it with any changes in settings.

I have the same problem with the front camera, it's terribly blurry and not of a quality level . that even the iPhone X I had was better, even on Instagram the photo comes out with a hum of bright lighting, sometimes it helps and sometimes it goes back to being blurry. Also in video calls there is blurring. The company I bought from even changed me to a new phone because they thought the camera was faulty, I thought the problem would indeed be solved but unfortunately it wasn't. I am very disappointed that I bought the phone and am not able to enjoy it, I am only busy with the bureaucracy with the supplier and there is no answer. I would appreciate an answer on what Apple can do about it.
