Samsung’s flagship S series smartphones — the Galaxy S20, S20+ and S20 Ultra have some of the best cameras on any phone. The S20 Ultra was one of the first devices to pack in a 108MP shooter. Images captured from the devices are on power with the best camera phones out there. However, when it comes to the video front, there has been a glaring issue present on all three devices.

Many Samsung Galaxy S20 series users had spotted an issue with regards to the camera focus during video. The issue is also noticeable when trying to capture images. This is especially noticeable when trying to capture close up objects on the Galaxy S20 Ultra. There have been a few attempts by the South Korean giant to fix the issue previously. Unfortunately, the camera performance on all three S20 series smartphones remained almost the same.
