the bold full moon was rising and I thought it would be a nice
picture, but when I took it with my Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 pro, it
looked like daylight and the moon, instead of being grey, looked like
a dim sun.
What was the model of phone that was "caught" substituting a stock
hi-res image of the moon, rather that actually taking an image of it?
I was visiting my brother in Florida and I was on the boardwalk in
Hollywood and it was almost dark and the bold full** moon was rising and
I thought it would be a nice picture, but when I took it with my Xiaomi
Redmi Note 8 pro, it looked like daylight and the moon, instead of being grey, looked like a dim sun. I waited until it was darker yet and took
more pictures and they all looked like daylight, or at least much
lighter than it was.

Might be from a manufacturer the name of which starts with "Sam".
Re pictures too bright: Some cameras provide settings to
control the exposure manually.
Otherwise, one can always--- Synchronet 3.20a-Linux NewsLink 1.114
postprocess the images to make them darker.

Yes, this is the usual behaviour of many Smartphone camera apps when
they try to "guess" how to improve the image quality and make every
scene bright and clear. You may manually edit the picture with tools
like Paint.NET or darktable to adjust the overall brightness or gamma
curve to make it look more natural.
Otherwise you may try apps like "Open Camera" which allow much more >customization for taking pictures and also provides taking images in RAW >format if supported by the phone, so you can develop the final image
using darktable or similar programs:
