Hi

my lg g3 camera quality is not that great when compared to my previous s3 whenever i take pictures i see a yellowish color in the picture. i am not sure is this by default but all my picture at any time as this yellowish color. basically it is not bright and colorful. also i took pictures with the maximum mega pixel..but when i zoom picture in a computer it is pix-elated. i am not sure whether is it default or i need to change some settings. i am attaching a picture i took with 10mp and 4000 some thing resolution. please give some advice on this.

Sounds like the ISO balance. I have mine on auto.

I also use Google's new camera with photosphere, although the stock camera also has that function. The pics in low light are way better than the S3.

I think you mean the white balance and yeah, best to leave it on auto.
To the OP, the G2 camera rocks and I'm sure the G3's is just as good if not better. Play around with the settings a little more. :)
I've had an S3 and while it's camera is solid, it doesn't hold a candle to the G2.
Check out this thread for some samples of what it can do:

Where is the Photospere option in the stock camera? I see panorama, but couldn't find anything like Photosphere, did I just completely miss it?

Looking to buy an android phone from an iphone 5 (don't want the samsung bloatware). We have got twins in the family and want a phone with a better camera including 4K video, also bored of Apple iOS.

I've narrowed the choice down to either a Sony Xperia Z2 or Z3 compact or an LG G3.

Considerations:
- I've gotta convince my wife to sell her iphone 4 to take my iphone 5 so I can buy the phone so cost is key, so I can't afford the Xperia Z3.
- I already have a Nexus 7 2013 and love the stock android clean interface.
- The Sony Xperia line looks good

LG G3 is not waterproof as the Sony is.

With Sony, if you root it, you will loose some functionality of the camera (supposedly) because of how the software works with the camera.

LG G3 fits perfectly in my hand for me. You would need to go to a store to see how it feels for you . Form factor is user preference my opinion. LG you can root it and recently bootloader is unlocked. MIUI ROM is supposedly out for it a well..

Its a fast phone. Heats up for me if I Maps for like 30 minutes straight but i had the same issue with my GS4. Phone runs smooth. Just install a different launcher like Apex or Nova. Love the 4K screen and the colors. Camera does a good job as well as video..
