Citing Notebook Check, a report mentioned that the country of origin and manufacturing do not usually affect camera quality, so this may be a one-off issue that affects only some units. Some users said this was also a problem on the Galaxy S22 series, but it was not reported at the time. It is said that the Ultra models are unaffected, most likely due to a different camera setup. However, some users mentioned similar faulty issues in the top-end variant of the series.
