Xperia M5 shots worse photos than M4 Aqua

Xperia M5 shots worse photos than M4 Aqua

Hi,

Anyone experiencing issue with ugly-looking picutres, captured using M5? My old M4 makes better photos even in dark places.

Xperia M5 camera - 21.5 Mpx

Xperia M4 Aqua - 13 Mpx

What is happening?

Edit

On M5 the photos taken in dark are more blurred than M4's and the "grain effect" is more visible on M5.

My M5 is using Android 5.1 (30.1.A.1.55). Model no. E5603

I am tempted to send mine in for repair, if they fix this problem, please keep us posted!

Today I received my Xperia M5 phone. On the paper there was the same as I wrote above - mechanical repair and update of the firmware. I contacted service via email to ask about the detailed report after the repair. They've sent me a txt file with logs proving that the gsm thing is working perfectly.

They also wrote that these parts were exchanged: front camera, back camera, back cover of the phone, battery and one speaker. I don't know why they exchanged so many parts but it works fine so far.

Autofocus works perfecly now.

logged the repair, will free-post myself, rather than courier collect, as I have no idea what time they arrive during a (work) day
