honor 9 front camera awful quality - Honor 9 Questions & Answers

Hey guys i just wanna check if it's only my device or the front camera is really that bad, here is a selfie i took in a room with enough light, it's kinda blurry and a lot of noise, is it normal??? I tried many times always the same quality. Didn't try it yet in day light tho

Looks to me like you are using the web cam on your laptop to take the selfie rather than the one on the Honor 9

Photos made with front camera

Hello guys.
I'm thinking about this phone.
Everything is excellent, but still im concerned about camera(front facing/selfie)
So, would anybody share his/her selfie with me?
And... what phone wins: Zenfone 2 or OnePlus X in matter of selfie?
here a selfie on a movie set. it was quite dark in the room. no daylight and some smoke maybe.

the built-in camero of OOS. For me it's good enough.
Acc to me front camera is betrer than most of the phones
I believe ,my friends, and all who have seen my phone,
Says tht its front camera is second to none.
To be honest i feel the front cameea to be the best of all the phones i have seen.
Oos camera is pretty good with face beauty and it works perfectly.
Normal images are clear to .
And if u want to buy this phone becoz of the camera ,then i shall remind u . it give perfect shot for selfies!! ??
I've seen people complaining that this front camera gave too much distortion comparing to other device. Honesty, I don't have comparison point and I don't use it....

It performs pretty well in good lighting conditions. Especially the beauty mode cleans all blemishes and unwanted things in our face. So we look pretty good than real.
Other then looking like a Japanse Anime character.. Without those filters i would give it a 7.5. When its dark a 4

There is a beauty slider. Set it to 3 or 5, you will get good quality of your face. Some ppl try to keep it 10 to look extremely beautiful.
I wouldn't say it's the best front facing selfie camera, but it does the job even in good lighting, not so bad at low light, but isn't great.

It uses screen flash to produce white light. So it is not so bad at low lighting.
front cam is awesome, takes awesome selfies.
beauty mode helps a lil bit with skin smothening.

Thank you so much for saying that our front camera is awesome! We truly appreciate your review. Here at Honor, we truly care about our customers and their comments. Don't forget to try the "Capture smiles" mode, which takes your picture automatically when it detects a smile. You can access that setting by going to the settings within your camera app and enabling it. (ED)

Sub parts, beauty mode is bad
Does the job
I use the front cam all the time for various purposes. Quite happy with it.
I am a camera shy guy so selfies don`t matter to me. But whenever I took them, that 5MP front camera is just enough. Front camera pictures give 'painting-like' pictures when zoomed in about 75%. My rating is 6/10.
I don't take selfies that much so this is sufficient for me.

It isnt my daily driver though. I use it for development .
Better better better for sure. With 5mp it does the job very well. And pictures can be taken with touch in back FP scanner which is excellent and provide ease of use
its nice ,,5mp shooter does its job very well
Just good. Not bad.

Hi everyone! I have this phone for a week now and it's beautiful, my previous Android phone was a p9 and I have noticed that selfie quality was better on p9, a lot better. Mate 9 makes my selfie too white, even if I disable beauty mode. I have touched every setting but pictures seems worse than p9 and I actually hope better quality. Have you noted the same thing? My mate 9 model is Latin America (c605 I think)
Any info would be appreciate than you.

I've noticed this also. It's definitely a light issue as I've taken some really good selfies.
You can change a setting at the top in the centre when you swap the camera around. It keeps the setting and when you flip back to selfie keeps it. I think this helped reduce the whiteness.

Thank you for your reply . I dont understand what setting are you talking about, it is a setting for the rear camera or for the selfie camera? In the read camera, in the center of the main screen i only see the the color mode (standard, "smooth colors" or "vivid colors") is that the setting you are talking about?
Thank you in advance and excuse my poor english

Hi.
Yes that was the setting. I changed it and then switched the selfie camera. Seemed to work as I managed to take a really good selfie that was good enough as a profile photo. It is still a little white though.
Just out of interest are you using the Chinese Rom version?

Thank you for your reply. I'm not using the Chinese version, I'm using the rom for Latinoamérica as I'm from argentina and my home language is Spanish. I'm with the b111 software version, waiting for the new update, do you have it?
Hmm. No I've just rebranded my phone to L29. I think it's a lighting issue. Some of the selfish I've taken are way too pale. I've turned that beautify app off which seems to be the culprit take a selfie with the light in front of you should reducer be amount of whitening effect.
Try cleaning the camera from fingerprints can help a lot.
Anyone has tried using selfie stick for mate9? If yes please come to this topic to help me, it seems not working on my mate9 Thanks!

So far on the demo in my store, the FFC is hazy and unclear, but that's the only thing so far I'm not particularly fond of about the G6...
Front camera has been really good so far. Only have taken a couple of pics but they have been good.
Sent from my SM-N920T using XDA Labs
Nothing to write home about. A little worse than the G4 in terms of image quality imo, but the wide angle probably makes up for that in usability. If you take a lot of selfies and the quality matters to you, not sure this would be my first phone choice.
well my G6 only lasted 3 hours, my note 5 took better pics with front and rear, the G6 I had flew performance wise but the camera is not very good, wish it would have taken better pics and I might have kept it.

In my comparison the front camera took better pics than my Note 5. I did some comparisons just for myself. However, I deleted them since I too sent back the phone.

I don't know why the 5-star rating.
Every comparison video I saw of the G6 FFC showed, that it has the worst result of all (vs P10,iP7,GS8,OP3T).
Anyone can post for the compare picture that taken by G6 and other new top devices?
The selfie camera is poor to say the least. The front camera on my S6 seems a lot better sadly..
Grainy and not focused no matter how much or little light there is.
The worst Selfie camera I ever seen on a 500 dollars flagship. Big **** omg, low light pic are ****, blured with grain, and high light photo quality is bad. 100% ****, wtf is this sensor ? I so disappointed..
le grand angle est plus utile que le selfie quand on habite près du Puy de Dome
Weird very little issues here. Low light sucks % but other than that I'm happy
yeah it's extremely blurred imo! so much smudge.

Not exactly new anymore. I picked up a oneplus 3t and couldn't be happier.
And I thought G4 had a bad selfie camera.. what a disaster.
Use the rear wide angle camera for selfies, don't know why LG dropped from 8mp to 5mp. LG V30 front camera 5mp seems better than the LG G6.

Unless you have really good light, selfie's aren't the best. Ridiculous amount of face smoothing I just can't seem to get rid of. Even with the settings turned off, it just does smoothing so it looks terrible.
Rear camera is good.
I have a big issue with my front camera...
When I try to take a selfie, if behind the subject there's a light(natural or artificial), the photo become blurry.
I compared my device with one exposed in a store and only my device has this issue(the settings were the same on both devices)....
Anyone has/had the same problem? If yes, how did you solve it?
I've already tried a factory reset but the problem still remain...
Gcam mod on the Note 9 takes considerably better selfie pix than the stock camera. No smoothing and a lot more detail.
Unfortunately the selfies are terrible. I have tried Android pie on the note 9 and I can say with that OS upgrade the selfie cam does get marginally better thank goodness.
The selfie cam in my opinion is bad quality. The photos are usually blurry except you are stood very still and have very good light. I think perfomance is not good enough for a €/£1000+ device and hopefully a software upgrade will fix the issue particularly the time it takes to focus
The gcam port makes the quality so much better

I have this phone for a day and I'm experiencing the same problem. All selfies look unnatural. Everything is too smooth, and blurry, just bad quality I think.
The only complain I have about the front camera is the angle. With my old LG G6 I could easily get the whole family in while talking with relatives and friends on video call.
With the Note 9 I can barely get myself in.

I'm still waiting for the update as I'm from Canada, Otherwise, I've had my N9 snapdragon for less then a month and I've used Urnyx's 7.3 v2.4: GCam & PixelCam_7.3_V5.0 by jairo_rossi and those camera apps are stable and work better than the stock camera (One UI 2.1)

I didn't tried to take selfie since the update
Quality
Selfie quality was superb in oreo 8.1, I don't see much quality after updating the phone to Android 9 or 10 versions
The self-camera on the Note 9 is actually pretty good quality when compared to most laptop and 3rd party USB Webcams. I have use it for video conferencing via Zoom, MS Teams and Cisco. All of the time the picture quality from my Note 9's selfie-camera seems to be much better quality than others who are using a laptop or traditional USB webcam
