My friend has a Moto G4+ and i have a Mi5x, the hardware is the same, the Mi5x camera is better, but on snapchat, when i zoom on 5x, the camera gets pixelated, but only in good light condition and the G4+ gets better photo result, no pixel.
I know the snapchat problem, but i really trying to understand why have this diference and why the problem starts from nowhere, because the results before is the same.
I've tried the roms MIUI.EU/BR and A1 PORT and have the same results in all of them.

I wonder if a software update will fix some of the issues with the camera like focus etc.. Does anyone know? Also, does the new Mate 7 have the same internal hardware for the camera since they are both 13mp? Guy on huawei chat said yes but I think he just read that both were same resolution.

I really do hope it does. The front facing camera is alright, can't really complain, but the rear is quite annoying.
What sort of issues are you having? I've had excellent results with the camera. I'm 100% stock, no mods, kernels or anything.
I don't use the huawei camera app or google. I use the Camera FV-5 app, because it has a ton of customizations.
I took this one this past Easter. Other than being cropped, straight from the camera on the Mate2.

That's a great pic. I noticed what most seem to notice when I googled. The camera has a focus issue and won't seem to lock on. Daily I'm taking pics and you think you got a good shot then the picture is blurry. My gf took some good shots with hers but the object has to be non moving with perfect light and just stand there and wait for the focus to grab versus all the other phones I've had before. I downloaded many different apps and took the same shot with all of them but non seem to do better and some weren't even capable of using 13mp. I'll check out the FV-5, thank you.
That picture is actually quite bad. Poor saturation and quite underexposed.... but meh, it's a phone camera. Pretty flower though!
I think the HAM2 rear camera could definitely be improved in software. It's my opinion that the front facing camera actually works better than the rear camera half the time. Take video for example... try shooting video in a somewhat darkened room with both cameras - you'll find out that the rear camera suffers a horrible loss of framerate while the video from the front facing camera is smooth as silk.
The front camera also has odd tap-to-focus issues especially when flash is enabled.
With that being said it's a cellphone camera and I've definitely seen much worse. And I love the question in the original post.... no one knows the answer but Huawei and their software development team. How would any of us know what Huawei is including in their Android 5.x based update? I'll still be quite surprised if we even get one, and that's WITH the Huawei blog announcements and the so far worthless 'beta' registration site.....

I was thinking more if anyone has noticed improvements in camera in previous upgrades of other devices so someone could comment "hey when the Honor 6 got it's new OS the camera problems were largely improved" or something like that. For sure nobody can know what the Huawei peeps are doing unless there is a Huawei peep on our lil ole forum. I'm sure you're right, if we even get an update they'll act like there was never an issue with the camera and do nothing. My friend ordered the Mate 7 but I read a review that sounded like it's the same camera as ours still and that's an expensive phone.

It sure doesn't match my dSLR, but like you said...it's a pinhole cell phone sensor...not much wiggle room.
Okay, I love this phone. I love the camera. Just work with the settings to get what you want. Now, THE ONLY THING, is the warp zones in the front facing camera. Always try to get the faces in the center of the screen or else itll appear warped.
Try it out and see for yourself. I guess that's the downside to having a long phone. The lens in the camera has to recompensate and redistribute the photons evenly.

And cant forget about the alien beauty filter! Makes it look like you did some zoomers!

Hi!
I recently got my lovely OnePlus X. Everything is where it needs to be, can't be more happy!
Except for the front facing camera, where the phone suffers from the wide-angle lens distortion syndrome which lots of new recent phones have.
The only way where I can fix this is by zooming a little bit so that the warp map for the camera no longer is "being used" even though it's already there?
The point is that I pretty much liked my front facing cam back when I had my Nexus 5.
Since I use Snapchat alot; when taking dank selfies, I just look like a fat fish in certain angles. If I use the default camera app however and zoom a little bit in, it's all fixed. How can do this for Snapchat, since it does not support front zooming for Android (yet?).
I have it rooted with Xposed installed and ready to go. Should I use some alternatives? Can I remove the warp map hardware wise? Can I change some "hardware-ish" setting so that it returns to normal mode? I just want it to be like my old lower fov Nexus 5.
Thanks!
Hi,
last week I bought phone Oukitel K6000 Plus and I noticed big issues with autofocus. Every photo is blurred on back camera, on front camera things seems little better with auto-focus. Also I updeatad system to the newest one.
I just want to report bug to Your softwere developers. I'm pretty sure K6000 Plus camera quality is much better but this auto-focus issue makes all photos of near objects look out of focus. Also a lot of customers of K6000 plus around the android forums said same kind of problem.
Have a nice rest of day

Did you solve this? I have the same problem
After oreo update my camera quality turned from great to sometimes impressive to pure disappointment. Photos come out blurry with no details on objects or faces or hair. Is there a way to fix it? I took a look at the settings everything is set to its max quality setting. Hdr did nothing to improve results, same bad quality with auto, on or off. Google camera app also produces similar quality results. Any suggestions?
I can say, without doubt, it has something to do with your phone specifically.
Have the stock Oreo update here, both front and back cameras work fantastically. Nothing like you describe.
First, I'd try a factory reset, make sure the lenses are clean, and re-check them.
You didn't mention if you were referring to the back or front camera.
Selfies with the LG app are still awful, as they were with Nougat, although in Oreo there is a slider to adjust the level of image processing, But even at the minimal level when you zoom in it looks like a brush drawing.
The above problem can be completely overcome using the ported GCam app, discussed extensively in other threads.
In contrast, the native camera app does an excellent job with the main cameras in most scenarios, especially with the new "bright mode" in very low light situations.
Again, in certain situations the Gcam does a slightly better job. The main issue with GCam is that it uses "bursts" of photos and then HDR processing to make these great sharp photos. This works great in static situations but if the subject is moving (like with children) there will inevitably be blur of the subject. In these situations the LG app does a better job.
Since you are reporting a problem specific to your device there is probably no "fix" other than try resetting it, use Gcam, or there is physical damage to your camera.

Haven't run into that problem with the Gcam I'm using. Though I use normal HDR+ and not HDR+ enhanced.
Yeah sorry for not fully describing the issue. I have some pre update photos from the back main sensor as well as the wide angle one that look fantastic , after I updated to oreo , everything turned blurry and washed out. Will try to factory reset the phone and take some sample shots to check if there is any difference . Thank you all for the replies.
Let down by the same issue.post oreo update the photographs from back camera are overexposed and washed out and the colour accuracy and clarity has taken a kick in the gut.
Same here, since the Q Lens option has appeared on the screen.I still have my lgg4 and thats crystal
What about try to replace Oreo camera with Nougat (7.0) one? It would be nice to compare pics from both versions in Oreo (any download Nougat camera only?).
Hello guys, I am a POCO user running on 9.0 ROM. I have tried many Google Cameras and also the ANX camera, but camera quality just sucks.
I mean Google Camera clicks very good pictures in real lighting condition, but sucks in low light. Even if it click good photos in real light photos, the background and face looks almost same. For example, Oneplus, Apple and all other phones make face look vivid or atleast different from the background but in Gcam the background looks better than the face and it doesn't even beautify the face at all. iPhone, Oneplus, Samsung all manipulates the face to make it better but GCAM sucks at this.
About ANX it is not stable. It randomly closes and even it does not deliver good photos...
I posted it on telegram but no one replied. Is that no one has got a life or everyone is using stock rom lloll
We can get sharper pictures with google camera as compared to stock MIUI camera. I really like the ported google camera for poco f1 in terms of picture quality.
If you really concerned to selfies with beauty mode to distiguish you from the background, I would suggest you to download third party camera apk like b612 or similar.
B612is cringe. By selfie and beauty mode, samsung's stock, oneplus' stock and every phone has beauty mode. Some show like OPPO vivo but some don't.. Poco's camera is outstanding but not having face enhancement feature sucks. You can't distinguish between object and background... Gcam fails in this
