Debating if I should buy a Rezound. Would like to get some tips and opinions.

That is from your own link. Maybe that is why none of the reviewers mention it...because all you have to do to "fix" it is change modes. Your one complaint about the Rezound's camera is not really a complaint about the quality at all, since the complaint is based only on one mode.

You are knocking the Rezound's camera quality simply because of it's default mode? You think it should be tuned for incandescent lighting by default? That seems a little unreasonable to me.

Why didn't you fix it in the pics you took and posted? You posted them as if you thought they were a good representation of the camera.

But now you know...

Maybe it doesnt bother me as much as it seems to bother you? Either way, if it bother's me in the future, all I have to do is change the mode. That hardly makes the camera itself flawed. The reviewer in your link seemed to think the Camera was great (he even liked the front camera)...what is he seeing that you're not?

No link huh? Ok.

If you're own linked reviewer doesn't have a problem with the white balance, why do you?

He rated it 3 out 5 stars actually.

 

[JeffDenver]

He rated it 3 out of 5 because of the video, not the stills. You are being disingenuous.

Don't be a nit. You said the reviewer seemed to think the still camera was great. Provide a link for that one. All I could see is that he called the quality of the pictures "good".

 

[JeffDenver]

What downside to the still pictures did he mention besides the default white balance mode?

Trouble finding that link?

Your link detailing the many many flaws of the Rezound's camera has convinced me that I was wrong all along.

All of the other reviewers and Rezound owners must be blind not to see these horrible flaws in these clearly awful pictures. I dont know what I was thinking.

Do you now know at least that white balance and brightness are different from each other? You have yet to acknowledge seeing a warm or yellow tint in any Rezound pic that I or you have posted or linked.

The pics you took and posted had white balance issues. Three online review sites that we have discussed over the last couple of days have had white balance issues. Pictures I've taken with the Rezound had white balance issues. I've learned a couple of things though. I'll give the camera another look.

Is it just me, or does it sound like someone is trying to convince themselves that they are "happy" with their phone purchase? Anyway. The 2 pictures of the collection of items :
First of all. The pictures are not the same. There are differences in the items themselves.
The "yellow tint" picture looks better in color reproduction. The colors in the tiles in the back ground don't bleed into each other as bad as the other pic. With that said, the "whiter" of the 2 pics is sharper...or so I thought at first. Upon switching between the two, the "yellow tint" picture is zoomed close and the "whiter" pic is further away. I liked the "warmer" pic better. The "whiter" pic looked very "clinical" and was not as nice. My 2 cents.

Well, finally after messing around with the Rezound, Nexus, and other phones at my local Vstore. I decided to keep my Bionic. Thank you for all input and opinions. Truth be told. It isn't as bad as i thought it was (Bionic). Best to leave it there.

And that's what is all about, what you are happy with. I try to include the bionic when talking about these phones. If I had the money when it came out, I might have that instead of the razr.

The Rezound does come with a Panorama mode on the stock camera. A pretty good one actually. It is very easy and intuitive.
