Last week, Samsung rolled out the June 2022 security update to the Galaxy S22 series. The update’s changelog didn’t mention many improvements besides the regular security patches and bug fixes. However, a recent post by a community moderator on Samsung’s forums reveals that the update contains some big surprises in the form of significant camera improvements.

According to the community post, the new update carries some serious camera improvements. For instance, Photos will now have a more natural sharpness and improved contrast expression. It is also likely that the update will fix the oversharpening issues.

The latest update is also said to fix camera bugs that cause the phone to stop taking pictures after capturing a shot with the Single Take mode. In addition, the update also carries tweaks in the automatic white balance algorithm so the camera will now capture more natural colors when capturing dogs and other animals

Moreover, memory consumption while recording videos has also been reduced, resulting in fewer stutters and frame drops. Lastly, the portrait mode performance has been proved and camera performance is also optimized.

As mentioned above, all these improvements came with the June Security update that was released last week. The update came packed in 1.7GB of data. Aside from the camera improvements, the update also increased the underlying Linux kernel version from 5.10.43 to 5.10.81.

The update was initially released in European and Asian countries, however, by now it should have reached almost every region. If you haven’t received it, you should manually check if it’s available to you. To check, head over to the Settings > Software update > Download and install.

Samsung recommends users to update their Galaxy smartphones while connected to a strong Wi-Fi and charging.​
