Selfie camera

I've had the S26 Ultra for about a month and I've noticed that the selfie camera is starting to malfunction. The camera starts flickering every time I try to take a picture; the brightness goes up and down like crazy. Thanks.

Try going on pro mode and turn the brightness to manual.

Call Samsung support. They will have you download an app. I think it called smart view. They will look at your phone remotely. Don't worry you have to give them permission to look into certain parts of your phone. If they can't fix it. They will tell you we're to go to get the camera module replaced. I reason I know this. When I bought the Samsung s22 ultra. I had wide angle camera failure. It under warranty.
