Never faced this, try clearing data of camera app.

Go out into normal lighting and you'll see better balance. Maybe if you have a range of colours in low light you'll get a truer colour range. I think this "problem" is due to you tricking the AI by giving it stimulation with such a homogeneous palate.
If you bought a phone to take pics of magnolia walls in dark places, you may have the wrong phone. Otherwise until we see some other pics looking wrong, I think you're probably ok.

Tried and it doesn't work

Why don't you try a factory reset if possible? Or use google camera or other camera to diagnose the issue. Else ask for a replacement.

That is because this is normal behaviour of the camera hardware and the image processing firmware. If all your photos were coming out like this there would be a problem.
As it stands there's no reason to think there is.
You can get the best phone camera in the world to take a bad photo if you try to trick it like this.
Notice how in the first shot where there are black objects in shot and colours other than magnolia it's not distorted, but in the second where there's no other comparison colour it is? There's no indication here of a problem.

Don't do any of those things!
I virtually guarantee that if you get another one you'll find the same thing. It's not a fault!

I did it once I got out from the box
Tried difference type of camera apps it's still the same
Replacement would be a perfect solution but I wish a software update could fix it.

Have you tried to disable ai mode and take photos without using that feature?

Search for the 5 MP related concern, it's not an issue at all, a technique called pixel binning.

white balance issue
it looks like a white balance problem. install google camera app and correct color by setting white balance to sun. Everytime you have to do that is annoying.

---

i actually had the same issue. I think certain batches of phones need some software calibration for the camera.It should be fixed in future software updates. I returned the first 2 poco's i had due to this issue.. The 3rd phone i bought was ok.

I had the same issue. It's a white balance problem with fluorescent light.
