I recently got the XR and although I am happy with it generally I notice a lot of my photos come out over saturated. Sometimes very obviously so, and other times with just a bit of a yellow tinge which I find very unpleasant most of the time.
Does any one else notice this? Or are there any tricks I'm unaware of that could fix it? (Besides editing them afterwards)

I am thinking of switching to either the 11, 11 pro or waiting for the 12. Those of you with 11s does the camera have the same issue? Wondering if there would be any difference. I would also really like a telephoto lens, when I got the XR I didn't think I would mind not having one, but starting to realize I would appreciate one

thanks for your help

Preprocessed colour representation and quality of image is a very subjective thing. Post processing is your only option if you feel like the default image processing is not good for you.

Over saturated judging by your eyes on the iPhone screen or by looking at the color levels in photo editing software?

I haven't noticed this on my 11. After taking a shot, I usually apply auto levels as I find them a bit dark at times.
