Received my new Umi Super.
Looks nice, feels nice.
Camera however is horrible. It over saturates yellow. Photos are unatural and horrible. I just did a bushwalk and did some comparison shots with my old Galaxy S4.
Cant even compare them. S4 has nice natural colours. Umi is like a 1996 camera phone. Very dissapointing. I took a risk on Umi buying in the presale. Looks like I lost out.
Can this problem be fixed in future updates? If not Ill have to sell my Umi, a quality camera is one of the main features I need on my phone.
Thanks

Dear, Have you updated the FOTA on your phone? We have released a new OTA V3.03-20160606, which improved the camera performance, can you update and check it?  Post time 2016-6-10 12:11

Since yesterday, there was a Update OTA, i think there some improvements i see. Taken some pictures with Camera MX and the standard camera app. The colors are more natural, sharpness is better IMO. Can anyone confirm?

I just compared the photos on a big screen. The Umi truly is horrible. Im going to have to return it. I think its beyond software repair.

hi, mine is on the way in.
If I have to face the same issue when I get it, I think it will be returned to seller for refund.

Further research suggests that if you want a good camera avoid mediatek chips.
Already making enquiries to send mine back.
Pity, a lot to like about the phone otherwise.

Great to see that if you tell the truth then the mods hide your post.
Could have answered the original question regarding future improvements but chose to act with poor integrity. I fear this says a lot about UMI in general.
Cant control other sites though.

Even video quality sucks. I tried another camera app and video is too dark.  They must do something about it via ota.

Try taking a picture using flash in low light. It's beyond horrible.
