Galaxy Z Fold 8 camera improves with 24MP default resolution and photo softening adjustments
↗
A ZDNET review finds the Galaxy Z Fold 8's default camera settings produce inferior results, recommending users install Camera Assistant, switch to 24MP output, and adjust photo softening for better quality.
The Galaxy Z Fold 8 ships with 12MP default processing that sacrifices detail, particularly in digitally zoomed shots, but better results are available through settings most users won't discover on their own.

The Galaxy Z Fold 8 defaults to 12MP photo output, but 24MP provides better clarity without the storage cost of full 50MP mode.
Samsung's default processing oversharpenes skin tones in artificial lighting; setting photo softening to Medium or High produces more natural results.
Camera Assistant, now integrated into the Camera app settings rather than a separate download, unlocks the resolution and softening controls needed for these adjustments.
