iPhone 13 Pro camera results appear weird (hazy,foggy,white hue) in backlight or low light

Hey guys im new into this phone (and new into iOS aswell) i bought my first iphone in 13 pro in a pretty good deal and pretto good used conditions too in indonesia, but ive been noticing that my camera result looks weird..

at first i thought its just a smudge on the actual cam, since its the main cam (1st pic) do that, but then i notice the front cam also doing that (2nd pic) its only happen if the lighting is kinda bad (like that, i point into screen directly or the 2nd pic which is in hot summer day and backlight)

whats the problem here? and what do i do now ?

You’ve answered the question yourself. If direct light hits the camera it will wash out the picture. A basic concept is that with any camera you should not have direct light in the field of view of the camera, unless you are specifically taking a photo of that light (such as a sunset).
