I am not a Samsung fanboy by any means, but there's no denying the cameras are fantastic: https://photos.app.goo.gl/4JwmReBsskSYNfzF9 was taken with a Galaxy s23 Ultra.

Oh ho. After some responses to this that Samsung was faking these, I went through some of my moon photos, and it certainly does look like there's a little more than just filtering going on. I added two images that I took back-to-back to the album. You can see that in one, the phone didn't recognize the moon as the moon because I didn't get enough of it in frame. What is in the frame is completely washed out with little detail. The one where it did recognize it, the detail is almost absurd. Sheesh! Disappointing. I might just go third-party camera app. Who knows what this thing is doing to my pictures.

Wasn't Samsung caught faking hi-res moon photos?

I'd be impressed considering I took that picture myself. I'm sure there's some filter stuff going on that the camera app isn't entirely transparent about, though.

Whoa! That's crazy! I had no idea. I just tried to take a picture of the moon with my phone since someone told me my phone could do it. Hmm. I've taken a few. I should compare.
