Pictures/Videos taken with your 8X!

More photos

One I took last night, the rest this morning on my way to work.

Basically in the day, the camera is good at night it's rubbish.
 
There's something strange going on in the night shots. Is that common, or just one device doing something it shouldn't?
 
It really seems to struggle at night with lights becoming giant blurs of light.

There was nothing in the reviews of this phone that mentioned this and their test shots did not show this effect. This is not a minor defect here. I am concerned that this is a production model defect that was not present in the test models sent out for review.

Engadget shots...scroll until you find the night shots. No glowing or beams of light.

Pics looks pretty darn sexii!

Might have to size up the 8X at the store on Friday.

The pics are decent. Seems to be some sort of bloom effect going on where the sun is hitting the buildings.

Those pics look like screenshos from a video game with bloom and HDR effects. That is kinda cool, but will get old and silly pretty quickly. Can the camera be switched back to serious mode?
 
Are you guys using the physical button or touching the screen? I always have better luck touching the screen!

Are you planning to return it and try a new 8X before you give up on it or you are planning to go ahead with this phone
 
I think I might take it back today. It's restarting loads, Kindle doesn't work, the low light shots are rubbish.

I'm not sure if I'll get a replacement or give the 920 a go (if they have any). Might just get a refund and wait for a while.
 
Just like the 920, pretty average quality.. but sufficient for most user cases.
