Those are actually pretty nice pics. Almost any camera will take amazing near focus shots though.

As far as photos go from this phone, they're very nice, but sadly, the purple hue is still highly visible in both shots (especially in the area of your cats ears)
I absolutely LOVE my Moto X, but the camera makes me sad. I hope for a fix in an upcoming firmware update.
P.S: Your cat is pretty

Sadly, it's one of the biggest problems this camera has. The problem is more evident in scenes with a lot of white objects or backgrounds.
Take the attached image as an example (yep, I brought Starbucks into a bar, lol)
Thankfully this is something that will likely be fixed in a firmware update.

No offense the first pic you posted is absolutely terrible. The colors are muted out and the entire thing is red.
Unless you're telling me you have red paper towels in your house.

as long as we're doing this. I know nothing about photography, i just thought these were decent pics
the third one i only put because somethign about the water and the way it caught the bird in flight so crisp i thought was amazing

This is with a quick auto correct of some colors and look at the difference. And it still looks like it's got a bit of a red tint.

no issues with the tint... I can fix that in 2 clicks. my problem is the "dry brush filter" look. You can't get those pixels back.

Youre all making laugh, I guess a benefit to being color blind is I don't notice the purple hue:sly:

It's a phone that has a camera, I don't expect to shoot National Geographic on this thing, so for me the camera is just fine.

A trick that you can try to prevent some of the redness or out of balance colors (not the purple hue) is to cover the light sensor on the front off the phone with your finger and then find something white to aim at and rebalance the shot before taking the picture. The sensor is to the left of the earpiece. It seems to help a lot when taking pictures in rooms lit by yellower CFLs.

Regarding all of the complaints of the Moto X's camera, are (some or all of) these things fixable by software/firmware updates or is it in the hardware? Anyone know? Details would be nice. Thanks.

I think this is a pretty bad attitude. There are decent cameras in phones that cost just as much or less. There's no reason to make excuses, the camera can be bad, but don't write it off like it's not important or they couldn't include a decent sensor.

You are right, just took the torch to have a look at it, there is pink but not as much as in the photo, Oh well, I mainly use it as a phone.
Is there a way to minimize it or it is hardware?
Also the picture in the above post by "ahalford" also have a bit of pink in it.

Indeed. Adjustable, though, through Photoshop in 1 second. Mainly can be seen on "Auto white balance" setting.
Here is one more. Focusing on red-orange gamma, whites in the background also get warm tones.

It's a purely hardware issue. To the extent that it can be minimized is based on software.
No amount of megapixels can make-up for the fact our all camera phone sensors are ridiculously small, and thus cannot capture sufficient light which creates the pink effect. =) It is also for this reason that you will not see this effect when the place is extremely bright (e.g., taking a picture outside on sunny day while under the sun and not in any shaded areas).
Once you know how to look for it, you'll know that this happens across platforms. Camera sensors just suck. Every photo I've seen from a camera phone that is not well lit has exhibited this effect.
You could always take pictures along the red-spectrum. It'll be camouflaged that way if it bothers you. *Shrugs* Or keep flash enabled all the time.
I'm loving this camera!

In photo 1, I do not know why the ceiling lights are like that.
I changed various settings but there was no improvement.
In some cases, the overall color of the room changed.
In photo 2, the room appeared to be dark but it was not.
I changed the flash to auto, on along with changing other
settings. The room still appeared to be dark.
In photo 3, again, that place was not dark. Setting the flash
to auto or on did not help.
In photo 4, everything including the room appears to be somewhat yellowish.
In reality, the wall is white and the pillows are gray.

Thanks for the suggestion but I am not a professional. I don't know how various settings affect the results. By the time I have tested out various settings, things that I want to capture will have been gone.
ah now things are getting clearer . your pictures looks a little bit like something is wrong with the 'white balance' of your camera. so you can try different settings for the white balance, the default should be automatic (AWB). I'm not an photoexpert too, but maybe some one else can guide you further with this.
Thanks for pointing this out. I also tried white balance but it did not help. Perhaps I did not do it properly. Hoping somebody could provide some tips. Are the strong glares from the ceiling lights in photo 1 also caused by the white balance?

This effect on the ceiling lights is due to a hardware fault, there are no settings within the phone that can correct this. You can try, like me, and use photoshop. For me, its no problem because I have used photoshop for many years, but others are not so fortunate. This fault is well documented. Samsung know about it, yet have done nothing to correct it. The only way is to send the unit back to the retailer for a new unit. I tried three or four brand new units and they were all the same.
In general. The camera has limitations because of its size and proximity to other circuitry that may introduce noise etc. Its 8megapix with a tiny lens, so as is, I feel it does a pretty good job (apart from that pink dot that is). To get better pictures, consider post processing with photoshop. If that's not an option, and quite frankly I would not recommend purchasing it just for pics from any camphone, try the GIMP, its free and does an awful lot to enhance your pics. You can find the GIMP here www.gimp.org it will run on linux, windows and the Mac
Hope that helps

Good question. I know the S2 does, and we all know about the Galaxy Note. I can see evidence of the problem on a slashgear.com presentation, and its that presentation that stopped me from going over to the S3. However, there are plenty of youtube tests where it seems pretty good. The S3 has only just been released, so it might be a while more before any issues become apparent. I think its one where you try before you buy. Personally, I'm not touching either the S3 or the 'Note until I have proof that the issue has been resolved.
Edit. The fault is commonly known as "the pink dot"
In photo 1 was the lens clean? Might sound obvious but even the slightest bit of grease or diet can affect how sources of light spear in photos. Typically in any photo I take where I light bulb or something similar is in the picture if the lens was not completely clean I got a similar effect as in photo 1

Well, there must be a lot of pink dirt around. My crappy clam phone must have pink dirt repellent, because no matter how greasy the lens gets, pics from it don't have a pink dot. Neither does my DSLR when the uv filter gets filthy, or my specs come to that. Sorry, but the dirt bit on this issue is a red herring. The camera has a defect.
I use UCam. A lot of "pro" settings and also some cool. And... you can disable shutter sound.

i think you should send the device to service/repair, because i think this is an hardware issue. i saw a lot of pictures taken by the note (not only my own device) and they are al just fine with the standard settings.
I just noticed that there is a protective film covering the back camera. Probably Samsung put it there to protect the lens. Do you think this is the cause to all of my problems? Am I supposed to remove it? For the first few days after purchase (3 weeks ago), the Note took excellent photos. As for last week and the week before that, it depends. The thin protective film has been there right from the beginning. Let's say the protective film covering the lens caused the pink dot, how do you explain why the cafe in photos 2 and 3 appeared to be dark whereas in reality, it was not. Also, photo 4 looks yellowish overall.
Hi,
Protective film would most likely create the effect on pic one. (which would be visible when a direct light source or reflection is in the frame.)
Pic two - could be a metering issue. Try changing the (cog wheel =>) metering setting and / or exposure level.
Yellowish photo is the result of incorrect "white balance". Change the white balance setting to incandescent.
I'm using both the stock ICS camera and camera zoom fx. On my previous phone the fx produced much better photos than the stock one. On my G - Note I don't see much difference.

Yes you are supposed to remove it. It does say so in the instructions that came with your phone. Check the camera after you have done this.

I doubt it's a manufacturing issue. it's most likely a lens design problem.

And until this thread I hadn't seen it on my n4. But since reading this thread I have noticed it on my low light photos
Actually, this is starting to look like lens flare. All but the OP's shots look to have a bright light source in front of the lens, out of frame.

In my opinion its definitely not lens flare. I've never experienced lens flare in the dark only. Also the pictures of the guys carpet and cat seem to also be in very low light with the same result so I'm not the only one experiencing this in very low lighting. Also my outdoor picture doesn't seem to produce it in the street shot where it would have been more likely to show lens flare (although that could mean it's still there but much less visible.)
I'm starting to think that more people are effected by this and just don't even realize it. I'm personally leaning towards the concept someone here already mentioned that this is a biproduct of the lens in low light.
For those of you not experiencing this issue please post your pictures of indoor shots with low light equivalent scenerio. Perhaps only some are effected by it or maybe you're just not noticing it. Like others have mentioned here... After reading this post that hue in the center became noticeable.
I hope it's an isolated issue but I'm starting to think it isn't.
Thanks again for all the feedback. I am very much into photography so it might take a fine eye to distinguish. Also if you decide to show a pic off try to use a lighter background so we can see the red/purple as some darker subject matter may mask it.
Good luck and I hope you don't share the same experience that we are having.

You should call google and ask because on mine, never happens even in low light. Its most likely hardware flaw on your lens and google would let you RMA for it.

Also there is "post your pictures taken by nexus 4' thread in general on first pagw and no one there seems to have the problem
I get this in lower light too, and it happened on my SGS3 and SGS2 as well so i'd say it's normal. In night shots and daytime it isn't visible.
Yepp I definitely get it too. Also doesn't focus correctly at times, like my gnex did.
Anyways here are 2 pics I just took. My living room had no lighting (beside coming from kitchen), my daughter is right under a light and I can't see the red hue there.

Good question. Ill try again tonight when it's dark out (got huge windows in living room) with the same shot in different lighting scenarios.
Regarding those comparative shots in different lighting conditions...
I just did exactly that, taking a picture of my desk, very similar lighting conditions.
All settings Auto, Exposure 1/30 s: red center
All settings Auto, Exposure 1/40 s: no red center
Video preview shows the same issue when I point the camera similarly.
This is not a hardware issue (at least not in terms of the lenses or CMOS), it looks more like there's something wrong during picture processing. It might be a problem with the ISP, although I'm pretty baffled to see this happening for such a long time (it was already an issue on the HTC HD2 which was released in late 2009). If it's an ISP issue, I guess we're out of luck.

Is there a way on Pixel phones to edit the nav bar buttons like on most other phones? I like the back button on the right.

I don't believe so without root.

We need more real world reviews on the screen from Avg Joe consumer. The screen is taking a beating online. Makes me weary. My 6p had that bluish rainbow effect viewing angle issue.
Can you comment more on how the display looks to you personally? So far the reviews are not good.

So far the screen is fine. I'm not the right guy to ask about screen this or that so I would defer to the big screen thread. The only thing I do notice is a blue tint when you tilt the screen 20 plus degrees like a lot of the other people have stated but it doesn't really bother me as I almost always look at the screen straight on
In the unboxing videos I've seen, I haven't seen the tool for removing the sim card tray.
Is there one included? I'm not sure I have mine still from my 6P. I'm sure I can use something else, but it would be nice if the new phone came with one.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: so funny. Not 60 seconds after typing this, I click on an unboxing video and the first thing shown is the sim card ejector, which is in with the manual packaging.
Oh well, I hope I get this bad boy soon. My ship date is scheduled for the 24th and I'm hoping for sooner.
Yeah got my phone yesterday as well, screen is different to say the least but the accuracy of color is really gorgeous. Google said they will be releasing a fix for the screen to adjust it or maybe disable SRGB as it's not for everyone but the phone works great, lightning fast, and take everything I throw at it. I have substratum themes running on it now (non rooted) and still the phone works great and looks great.

Is there an option in "Developer Options" to toggle sRGB? With it enabled on my 6P, the colors do look more muted, yet more natural. I was just wondering if the picture color mode can be changed.

The funny thing is if you go to settings and search for it, it says it's there in developer options, but when you look for it, it's not there lol
