On my Galaxy s25 plus, whenever I take photos with the front facing camera in the gallery when I look at details it shows as 9 megapixels. The front facing camera is 12 megapixels does anyone know why it does this or have any suggestions?

I found that if you set the option at the bottom to single person, you get a 9mp image, but if you set it to the two people icon it is a 12mp image.  Probably just software zoomed in for the single person, and full sensor for the "wide angle" or multi person setting.

Is there something wrong with the pictures? If not, why does it bother you if it's only 9 megapixels?

I think the OP was just curious as to why the spec sheet stated 12mp, but their selfies are only 9mp, seeing as how it defaults to the single person mode.
