I'm just getting this update. Yet again, nothing mentioning camera improvements.

The TD1 update, above, is for USASnapdragon models. The global Exynos models started receiving the G98*BXXU1ATD5 roll-out last Friday, 1st May. To locate your model number, go to.. Settings > About phone > Model number.

In spite of it not showing it in the official Samsung changelog, some users are stating that there have been camera improvements on the USA snapdragon phones and this video appears to show this...

That's odd. Didn't get any. The last update I received was the April patch.

I just watched that video and it LOOKS promising but I don't believe it's accurate. I think it's placebo affect. I think they're testing the camera auto-focus in perfect conditions (great lighting) so it happens to be working reasonably.

I've got two S20 Ultras here:

One with the update
One without the update

They perform identically and in a room that isn't perfectly lit the auto-focus issue persists. There is also trouble auto-focusing at close macro-like distances. It didn't take long for me to find an object that caused hunting. It did quickly resolve and set a fixed focus- but it was blurry and not properly focused.

It's hard to measure improvements when the testing is so limited and when there is no basis for comparison.

I do not own the snapdragon model and therefore cannot comment. You have previously owned that model and from the video you can judge for yourself.
