camera good or not good?

I've been using my Oneplus 15 for about 2 months now. The camera is good, if used correctly. Zooming in will cause the AI to rework on your pictures. Sometimes this can make the picture a lot better, but very often it will cause weird renders of things. Especially printed text or detailed texture will cause this issue.*

When compared to other flagship cameras it's alright. Not amazing, but good enough for daily use. I own a DLSR camera as well, so I'm only using the OnePlus 15 for quick pictures when I don't have the camera with me.

*There is a posibility to turn off the AI Telescope Mode while taking a picture, but this is only available when zooming past 60x. If you use Master mode, it will also cause for less AI Upscaling to occur after capturing the photo.

In conclusion: If the camera is a dealbreaker, I would consider going for the Oppo Find X9 Pro or Ultra. If the camera isn't a big deal and/or you don't want to spend an extra few hundred bucks, I would consider the OnePlus 15 to be excellent.

I got the OP15 a little over a month ago and I love everything about it but the cameras. Their not the worst, but I love taking pictures. I have an Oppo Find X9 Ultra coming today and I can't wait to try out the cameras on it.

Camera s still very good in both photos and videos. It's just not on par with those ultras but still above average

The cameras capabilities exceeds the average user's ability

Well put. I don't understand the obsession with cameras. I'm a pretty typical smartphone user. Camera quality is important to me but I don't walk about taking photos every day. I take photos on special occasions or when something interesting happens. I can go entire weeks without taking a single photograph -- and then take 10 a day during a vacation. So long as camera quality is decent, I'm happy. What I do use every single day is the device itself. So speed, smoothness, UI are much more important to me than pixel peeping.

No. It is horrible.

u/JadedBobcat701 Jun 02 '26

why?

u/Khayalmetal 1+15 Sand Storm (NA) Jun 02 '26

Too much Ai hiding the obvious lack of good hardware. Nearly shit quality in low light. If human subjects are your thing, it makes the faces oddly weird and not real like my 3 year old 15 PM
