2. Blurry Images
To improve the image quality and reduce blurriness on your OnePlus Nord's camera:
Ensure Lens and Camera are Clean
Make sure there are no smudges, fingerprints, or dirt on the camera lens. Gently wipe the lens using a microfiber cloth.
Enable Stable Shooting Mode

Select "OK" to reboot in safe mode. If the camera works fine in safe mode, uninstall recently downloaded apps that may be causing the issue.
4. Poor Low Light Performance
To enhance low light photography on your OnePlus Nord:
Enable Nightscape Mode
Open the camera app, swipe left to access the shooting modes, and select "Nightscape." This mode optimizes low light photography by capturing multiple frames and merging them to produce a well-exposed image.
Use the Night Mode for Selfies
When taking selfies in low light, enable the front camera's night mode by tapping the moon icon in the top-right corner of the screen. This will enhance the lighting and reduce noise in your selfies.
