Nougat - picture resolution

Hi everyone,

My 2nd major issue with the new Android 7 update (after the quick settings menu being ruined with additional presses needed to turn mobile data on/off) is that in the Album app, higher resolution pictures take a looong time to "load". So, the picture is blurry with no detail, and it takes abt 5 seconds or more for the picture to be "processed" and shown normally with details. I have no idea where this slowness has come from!

Has anyone else noticed this? It's especially annoying when you take a few pics of a certain thing and then want to cross check to see which is best, or when you want to just zoom in on a picture...

Hi @Prince13, I have the same problem so I use Google Photos. I hope sony update Album app asap.

@MacMux I forgot to say, I also have to wait abt half a second for instagram pictures to "load". Definitely wasn't there before. So I'm guessing it's the OS' processing, not the Album app...

New software update 292 and the problem keeps... Sony, are you going to solve this issue?

Hi,

same problem 😞

One question: is possible to display the current date in the name of the photos instead of DSCxyz?

Regards,

Andrea

I'm experiencing the same problem.

After zooming in, it takes 5 - 10 seconds for the photos to load.

I have noticed that the rendering of the photos takes a long time with Nougat. And there is always a micro lag at second 00:01 of each video I watch. Saved in the Micro SD (UHS II U3) or internal memory, even the video "sample" by Sony. Anyone with these problems? Obviously I'm talking about Album app.

usually this the case of the image enhancements kicking in.

try to disable the image enhancments (x-reality or super vivid mode) , to see if you still experience this lag.

Same problem here, would a factory reset solve? 34.2.A.0.311

Ive only ever had this firmware and so got the phone recently, was it like this on previous? And only affect the compact?
