Well at least now I know it probably wasn't me, seeing all these other folks having the same problem.  The reason I chose the s25 ultra was only for the camera, specifically astrophotography.  Shoot, man...the pics I got of the Northern Lights with my s22 turned out better than what I got last night!  
C'mon Samsung.  Hubby is considering an upgrade to his ancient s10e, and I'm desperately trying to keep him from going "fruitbowl" (Apple) on this Windows home!

I have the same issues.

The rear camera cannot focus properly objects and the photos are blurry.

I have already updated the software to the latest march patch. Same issue...

That's crazy, when will Samsung release a fix for this major issue??

I'm also having issues with the focus. My Samsung S10+ had much better focus. Background is mostly blurry, when I get close to the subject, one part of the subject can get blurry, like my dog's nose. And I also struggle to manually set the focus because tapping on my desired subject struggles to bring up the yellow square. I sometimes have to tap 5-6 times to bring it up. I am very unhappy with this phone's focus.

I don't have a solution but I found 2 ways to save some of the photos.

One way is to "remaster" a photo. To make this option appear, go to the photo you want to remaster, tap on the 3 dots on the top right corner and tap on "details". Then on the bottom of the photo, right above the details, you will see some options like "remaster" "live effect" ,"background blur" , tap on remaster. This can fix some photos but it can potentially oversharpen an already sharp subject that was already properly focused.

Another way is to go to Samsung Store and download an app called Galaxy Enhance-X. This has various options like removing blur, sharpening a photo, "magic" option, "increasing resolution", "denoise" etc. You can mess with various options and see if any of them improves a photo.

Again these two fixes don't work on every photo but some photos can be restored.

Same issue, I'm using my S22 and my S25 side by side taking photos and S22 is waaaaaay better. On the fence about trading it in now.. Has anybody been able to make these photos better? especially in low light.

When I take a photo with the S25 Ultra using the 1X lens, the picture label shows it was taken in wide-angle 23 mm. The photos also appear slightly blurry despite holding the phone very steady. Anyone else having this issue with the S25U camera?

Ok. So, the default 1X lens takes a wide angle, 23 mm picture. It was not labeled as such on my S23U. Guess that's what confirmed me. Thanks.
