‘Problem solved’ – Samsung owners shout as free phone update solves ‘annoying’ camera problem

SOME Samsung owners may soon get an update on their smartphone – but in this case there are no fancy new features.

The tech giant has been making waves lately with its new AI tools for texting and more.

However, the latest software update is apparently less effective.

And it is only available on two Galaxy smartphones.

Samsung’s official update log doesn’t go into detail, simply stating that it addresses a “stability and reliability” issue.

However, a user reported that this actually solves an “annoying” camera issue.

“Say goodbye to annoying video rattles!” wrote @tarunvats33 on X.

“I have such a problem! Expected in this update,” another commented.

According to SamMobile, the update will arrive on the Galaxy S24 Ultra and Galaxy S23 Ultra phones.

So far, it has only been introduced in Thailand, so owners in other countries will need to keep an eye out to see if they experience the same problem.
