camera issue started back as early as January and Google still hasn't fixed it....

in playstore, search Google camera app and you'll see all the 1 star...

using other camera apps doesn't work...

it's a software issue that Google has done nothing about it...

If it ain't broken, don't fix it. I have a phone from 2017 and still uses the original firmware and works flawlessly. Same for apps.

And updates always negatively impacts the performance since the new software is optimized for the newest hardware, making weaker specs phones struggle.
