Why does the camera performance/image quality of the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G decrease in high temperature environments?

When the phone’s temperature rises too high, it automatically reduces performance to protect the device from potential damage. This is particularly noticeable in tasks like photography and video recording, where the camera’s sensors and processors work intensely. The high temperature can cause the phone to throttle its CPU and GPU performance, resulting in slower image processing, lower resolution outputs, or reduced camera functionality.
To ensure the best experience, it is recommended to wait for the phone to cool down before using it again for demanding tasks like photography, gaming, or video recording, especially in environments with high ambient temperatures or during long usage sessions.
