    Galaxy S23 users may have to wait a little more for their camera fix

    The Galaxy S23 is as close to a perfect Android flagship series as you can get in 2023, but one issue still lingers. The HDR bug and other minor camera problems that can crop up in specific lighting conditions haven't been addressed. And although Samsung was aiming for a June fix, the company may have to postpone the update.

    A new rumor claims that Samsung may have failed to solve all of the small Galaxy S23 camera issues it's been working on for the past few weeks. Because of this, the company may supposedly delay its June update (via @UniverseIce). Whether it will postpone its release to July is unclear.

    Samsung is trying to avoid releasing a half-baked patch

    The Galaxy S23 series received the June 2023 security patch last week but has yet to get a feature update with the awaited camera fixes. We're nearing the middle of June, and at this rate, S23 users might have to wait a little longer. And, who knows?! Perhaps Samsung will decide to make these camera fixes available through the big One UI 6.0 update rather than a monthly patch.

    That's not very likely, so to stay optimistic, there are almost three more weeks left until the end of June. Samsung might have plenty of time to release the camera fixes this month. Otherwise, Galaxy S23 users may have to wait for a July or later release.

    On the bright side, it appears that Samsung is trying to squash every possible camera bug before launching this update. Better to be safe than sorry, as rushing to release half-baked fixes would only hurt the company's reputation. On the other hand, this diligence from a desire to do things properly can cause further delays, which means Galaxy S23 users affected by the camera issues might have to sit tight and wait a while longer for Samsung's camera developers to finish their work.
