Front facing camera freezes when using it. Only shows a still image and updates every few seconds to a new image. It either freezes completely and crashes or continues with the lag. Unable to look through front facing camera at all because it freezes on what it's looking at for 10 seconds at a time. A factory reset fixes it but once there's an update it breaks again. It's frustrating considering how much the phone costs. I'd love to show it off and promote the phone to friends and family but I feel as if I'm showing people a broken product. It's an awful feeling having something brand new that feels like you bought it used because something isn't working on it. 

I've seen several posts on here regarding this issue with no update. 

Samsung, please don't let this continue and give some sort of acknowledgement.

Still no update to this issue. I saw another post with the same issue but it's now deleted. Wondering if they found a solution or not. I'm hoping it's not hardware based. Not even sure how to start that conversation. Are there any Samsung reps on here that can respond

It's possible this is a software concern for your device. I have some troubleshooting steps that should help with this matter. Even though you have an Austrian model, the steps should be the same. Let us know if this helps.

I have encountered the same issue, and it seems I have finally came to a solution: uninstalled the Expert RAW camera app extension from Samsung.
