Why Do Phone Cameras Deteriorate Over Time by Clinton594(op): 2:37pm On Nov 08, 2016
After i bought a device that i showed off with... Everyone in my camp wanted to take snapshots with my phone's camera.

This is just 7 months of usage and the camera takes a different image quality after the shot has been taken.

I've noticed this in several phones... What's the cause please?

Really. I have an iPad that I have owned for 3years now and the camera is as sharp as new. So probably you have a low quality phone. My thoughts.

Someone can't comfortably tell me that C8 isn't a good phone.

The answer can be summarized as: not really, but some things make image quality worse. Listed factors include:
*.Dust accumulation on the sensor (blamed for "resolution loss, pixels of false colors, noise, spots"wink
*.Worn-out moving parts leaving the sensor out of alignment ("focus images, blurry and distorted images"wink
*.Improper maintenance leading to "blown-out receptors on the sensor" (which lead to "blank spots on the image, false-color pixels and resolution loss"wink
*.Dust in the lens ("noisy, blurry and distorted images"wink
*.Scratched or destroyed lens coating ("distortion or false colors due to ultraviolet and infrared radiation reaching the sensor"wink

It isn't always about the brand Nna, samsung sef dey misbehave and we have good quality Tecno phones that their camera doesn't detoriate.

See what your almighty samsung user said.

I've had the Samsung Galaxy Note 4
for about 6 months and the photo
quality has deteriorated dramatically in
that time. I haven't been able to find a
lot of info on this and thought I was
going a little mad, but since talking to a
few other friends about it, it seems to
be a bit of an issue! My previous phone
was an Xperia Z, and I had the same
issue with that, however this time it
has happened a lot faster. Considering
the picture quality was the main reason
I got this phone, I'm not too pleased.
Noticed that even Xperia Z had thesame issue and some of her friends have had thesam experience?


Please don't jump to premature conclusion when you haven't got your facts right.

These are likely to be the reasons.

Never heard of that either . It's probably the screen deteriorating or the camera lens is dirty or scratched.

Sometimes dust and dirt enter the lens area thereby reducing light penetration
The picture you see overtime include dust too they show on the picture by making it burred it's not a phone quality issue
Even IPhone 8 grin will do same over time
Re: Why Do Phone Cameras Deteriorate Over Time by integrity85(m): 6:35am On Nov 09, 2016
