iPhone 15 front camera issues

Whenever I open the camera, the quality looks fine, but after capturing the picture, it turns out terrible. The picture has a grainy and noisy appearance even in good lighting. When I compare the iPhone 12's front camera with the iPhone 15, the better quality comes from the iPhone 12. I don't know what it is, but it seems like Apple may have compromised the front camera quality this time.

This is my first iPhone and I didn’t expect the experience would be this bad. The front camera is worthless. I have an Android phone of Realme 11 pro 5g+ and it takes spectacular selfie. Whereas this $854 iPhone 15 is nothing. I’m really disappointed. No matter how much I tried altering things in the settings, nothing changed that much. Apple really should pay attention to this huge issue.

I am experiencing the same issue. I upgraded from the iPhone 12 Pro to the iPhone 15 Pro Max a week ago, and am highly disappointed in the front-facing camera processing. I have adjusted many settings and played with it, but the photos come out darker, grainier, and duller than before the photos are taken. When I screenshot the photo about to be taken vs taking the photo, it is a world of a difference. Taking this to the Apple Store tonight and likely returning this phone for a google pixel or Samsung.

Same issue here… just bought a new iPhone 15 pro max. When I open the front camera the quality looks great and when I take a selfie the quality is terrible. My face looks grainy and smoky, even the picture was taken in daylight. My old iPhone 12 Pro makes much better selfies. Apple, please address the issue and fix it 😢
