Why does my camera keep freezing up?

Not going to lie, I copy pasted the below because I’m having that exact issue.

Why does my iPhone 14 Pro Camera Freeze?

My iPhone 14 is on iOS 16.5.1. camera randomly stops saving images to the camera roll and the app will 'freeze' when I open and attempt to use the camera.

most times it has a delay opening and focusing on an object. When I take a picture, the image does not save to the camera roll, nor does it appear in the lower left of the camera screen (an older image is displayed). I rebooted the iPhone, verified I have the latest software, verified I have sufficient storage space, and done extensive research online without resolution. Please help me with any tips on how to resolve a camera issue.

iPhone had dual sim ( one physical and one esim ). Turning off both data streams seemed to work, but having a phone with no calling seems a bit silly. Turning off the physical sim and using just esim didn’t seem to fix issue. Visa versa didn’t work either. Seems to me the processor was just managing network traffic (not connected to any Wi-Fi).

esim was running 5G with full bar strength with around 80+ Gbits/s.

50 people reported the same issue on Phone 14 Pro Max Camera with IOS 16.3.1 but resolution was not answered and conversation was closed in Jan 2023.

any help would be appreciated.
