hello ,
some reviews says the camera is so bad and some says it's so good , i know at night it's not so good but , overall is it good ? and the phone deserve to switch from the honor 10 4 gb ram and 128 storage ?
Honor's 10 is much better
Camera is average. Nothing worth switching from Honor 10
Who told that camera shooting bad at night ?
Camera Module is capable just the software need to catch up to it , as poco same camera modules used in MI8 but then again Honor 10 is in different segment , if camera is primary reason for switching then don't

Do you have specific challenges with your honor10 phone? Any that you are looking at solving by moving to poco f1, in that case perhaps compare those aspects, from a camera perspective, if u are unhappy with honor10 camera, then check some comparisons between the two.
However there may not be much to gain apart from the prospect of a bigger developer community with poco
I dont know about others ,but my camera is very very very bad ...... Its not even an inch similiar to what the youtube reveiwers show !!!!!! .... And i think there is no optical zoom ,because if i zoom even a little there is much noise in the picture.
Here are a couple of pics, everything seems good here I suppose
Ignore the orientation please

Hey guys I have 3 weeks the Huawei p9 lite 2gb ram 2016 edition .. it's a little slow, and the 2gb Ra is not enough for me because I am using Facebook messenger, Instagram etc etc .. is it worth to sell the p9 lite for 150 and buy the redmi note 4 Snapdragon 3gb ram with 160 euro ? What about the ram management? The speed of the processor etc ? Please give me more details about redmi note 4 , I know it's specs but I am not sure if it is Worthing. Thanks .
P9 Lite pros: NFC, Camera, Audio quality.
Redmi Note 4 is better at pretty much everything else.

It's not big difference, but Xiaomi is notorious for poor camera quality even in flagships. They use decent sensors, but optics are most important and they are lacking in this aspect.
But there are some ported camera apps that improve the quality by good margin. You can search for Redmi Note 4 camera samples and see for yourself.
It's really Snapdragon 625 which makes this phone great, there is not that many phones which can achieve 10-12 hours SoT with 2 days of usage, and Redmi Note 4 can do it.
Overall Redmi Note 4 is way better than P9 Lite, i think it's no brainer if you can sell your old phone.

Alright thanks, what about the speed ? I am running multiple apps at the same time , which apps consume a lot of ram usage .. like Facebook, messenger, Viber etc.. would I see any good difference?

Obviously you gonna see difference since you are switching from 2 to 3GB of RAM.. even better if you could get 4GB RAM variant.

Nah the 4gb version costs 215 euro almost.. i don't want to spent so much money. I hope the redmi note 4 will be faster than the p9 lite that's s.ucks. every day need 2 times charge.. what about the note 4's battery consumption ???
Battery is super awesome...
Yep battery is absolute beast on RN4, main selling point.

Ok I am gonna buy it tomorrow , when I have it for 2-5 days I will tell more thanks for now.
I am using redmi note 4 and I can say one thing you would feel the power in your hand it's awesome taking about ram and performance it's a beast in that budget range. I don't have any kind of complaints regarding the performance and app switching works awesome it's pretty decent and battery life is insane . Camera sucks in low light in daily light its good. Sound quality is great and decent but I hate miui
Keep P9 Lite.

I have Redmi note 4, Maybe it has better hardware but very bad software so no point in the hardware when os is rubbish, i think keep your P9 lite because Huawei have better software support.
---------- Post added at 04:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 PM ----------
Xiaomi (redmi series) also have a big problem (its big for me) microphone is very very bad, example if u want to record some moment in concert the sound quality is rubbish its like u record with some phone from 2005, my nokia n9 that is 2011 video record sound is very very clear compared to redmi note 4 i also had redmi 3, had same problem, my GF have p9 lite and its amzing i did mistake that i not go for that phone

First, MIUI (xiaomi) sucks a lot, but EMUI (Huawei) sucks a lot lot lot more.
Second, they all runs under Android, so in software they are pretty the same.
And third, RN4 (at least international version) has a Snapdragon, P9 have a custom cpu (Kirin or something) so in 1 year, when with our RN4 whe can test the lastest Android 9, P9 Lite will cry for having Android 8.
No guys I bought the RN4 it's awesome, I had the RN3 few years ago but after RN3 I had a lot of phones like s6 edge s7 edge s6 mi max galaxy note 4 etc.. RN4 is good but the brightness is low and it's too heavy for me. For its money 150 euro it's a beast, I bought the p9 lite for 200 euro and sucks, the camera was little bit better, brithness and colours better, but small screen 5"2 and it was easier to keep on your hands.. and don't forget emui has better UI I think that the miui..
When the sun light is bright is so annoying because you can see on the phone .. RN4

They runs on Android.. and Samsung runs Android and try compare Miui with emui and TouchWiz...
I know its Snapdragon... And the android versions is really not important in a phone... There no difference in android 6 and 7 ... And there will be not big difference with 7 and 8 .. and maybe u dreaming that u will run android 9 or at least 8 u need be happy this device getting android 7...
Dont take me wrong im real i have this device... I like it but its not so good as u saying..

I don't compare useless UI with useless UI.

I'm comparing the phone to the P9 Lite.
And comparing it to the P9 Lite, the RN4 is better in almost every points (cheaper, better battery, better performance, more ram, custom roms ...)
P9 Lite is maybe better a Photo /camera, but if this point is crucial to you, there a way better phones than this one (a motorola for example or a lenovo p2 ...)
I've already have a Huawei phone previously, so I know how Huawei manage their update.
And since its not a Snapdragon but a custom CPU, custom rom are merely inexistent, and development will stop one Huawei stop releasing their sources
Found this version of Google cam that works on honor 8 (not sure about the hdr+)
https://drive.google.com/file/d/18Fi-ZXfMO7n1I0kzhYWaIxRpFhYUyLhX/view
Did both HDR+ on and off and I don't see a difference, camera app works though
Idle mode does not work for me, the screen is stuck.

I found it yesterday in the Huawei p10 xda pate and the version number is: 4.1.006.126161292
Huawei p10 xda page*
HDR+ can be turned on, but the photos have less range than the ones in default camera without HDR. Note that Google Camera only uses 1 of the 2 camera sensors.
I can bet u guys, Google camera in Honor 8 will perform better than stock camera. All high end, mid range, low end are the examples. You can check the comparison. I have MiA1 its stock camera is incomparable with Google camera. But someone should have to port it for @kirin_Chipsets to make it work.
Till now it is only available for Snapdragon and Exynos processors. Let's hope @Arnova8G2 will help.

I guess only stock EMUI camera can use both cameras, so I wouldn't bet.
Maybe right but you saw the difference in photos between stock and gcam
I googled everywhere, but can't seems to to find anything on it. Is it possible at all or not due to SoC?
I would highly doubt it, mainly because the pixel has 1 back camera and the mate has 3
Could still happen, other phones have more than one camera and have had it ported over, OnePlus 6, LG g6 etc etc but the only Thing that might be an issue it them. Phones have had snapdragon processors as opposed to Huawei Kirin.

Porting Google Camera is much easier from Snapdragon SoC to Snapdragon SoC, yet there are still issues on OnePlus phones cause of the different sensors. I'm afraid it would take someone in the knowledge and motivated to properly port GCam for Kirin, and then you have the problem of the multiple lenses, something GCam doesn't support natively. First and foremost Huawei should just significantly cut back denoising and some of the sharpening, or just offer the option. Otherwise stock camera app is well rounded (minus GCam's awesome photosphere).
Night Signt is what I am more interested in from the new Google cam.

You are absolutely right. Some tweaks from Huawei and the stock camera App is brilliant. There is no need fpr GCam on Huawei especially since Huawei started with those dedicated night modes.
The problem does not seem to be the SOC as Mate 10 pro has a perfectly usable GCam port but the P20 pro doesn't. The problem is with the IMX 600 on the P20 Pro and Mate 20 Pro as it enables pixel binding technology to capture HDR photos within the sensor itself rather than stacking different shots together. The pixel binding technology relays on the sensor to capture four pictures at once while other HDR technology only captures one photo at each shot. Oneplus uses the same technology on its secondary sensors so If there if any ports are working with the Oneplus's secondary sensor, then it might as well working on the Huawei devices. But If that's not the case, then it's not likely for us to get hands on any workable GCam shortly.
What a shame. imo the Mate 20 pro cam modules are really capable, but the software tends to screw up my images. I mean as mentioned, the sharpening, and the noise reduction is way over the top, and makes the images oilpaintings rather than actual pictures.

but you know, you can download this apk and its working perfectly
Also waiting for this :angel:
I tried many ports but nothing worked. Agree with Don.Chen's insight, I also found M20P compatible with some P20P's ports, but not the M10 ports. Miss GC's Portrait mode. Basically hardly any support for Kirin processors. Saw people mentioned Huawei's Camera API 2 is blocked, thus GC will not work for HDR+.
I hope some devs will turn and give it a try to mods gcam to work with our device

Is this from pixel 3?
At least it works . And it's real 40 MP photos with zoom.
I tried one of the gcam version but it didnt work correct, so I deleted it. But i have a feeling that after that my camera doesent work so good anymore, it doesent take so good pictures anymore. Do you think that something like that is possible, or it is just my feeling? I dont have any good pictures to compare between, so it is hard to prove.
No change in terms of quality here. I guess you could do a soft reset? Has anyone found a port for wide angle support? Thanks

hello all
so , i'm thinking of changing my Huawei mate 9 to S9+ , what i want in a mobile is a decent camera capable of taking nice Portraits and snappy device specially in Pubg mobile , so as an S9+ user , do you suggest it to me? it's not so expensive here , i used to like my Mate 9 but i guess it's time to try something else ,
so :
Pubg performance? does it support Extreme fps?
camera : i saw people complains about it's quality , i will only be able to get exynos version , so is it alright? and what should i focus on when i'm trying it?
and if possible , please provide some portrait shots , and gimme ur overall opinion about it , thanks all <3
What are your thoughts regarding the main rear camera on this phone? I assumed that it was worse than the camera on Mi 11 and Mi 10T Pro since the sensor is smaller in size and lacks OIS. However this youtuber claim that camera performance on 11i actually is better than on Mi 11. In the comparison below with Mi 11 Pro the difference was also smaller than I expected.
I have Mi 11i now. My first impression is that the camera is disappointing. Will probably send it back. Mi 10 and Mi 11 takes more detailed stills. But have to do some more testing.

Hi guys, regarding the main Mi11i 108MP camera, I'm curently strugling to find out a camera replacement, does anyone has an idea what model to use ? Any OEM reference ?
I have the Mi11i and the camera is great, what are u talking about? This is a budget phone, do u expect iphone 12 pro or S21+U quality?
The camera is better than these devices ive tested: S9+, OP7 Pro, A32 5G, OP 8T, OP Nord 2, Iphone 8, SE, X
Do you use the 108 mode and fiddle with settings? Or do u just use nomal mode and tap and take the photo? Thats not how u take a good photo, thats only for iphone (dumbed down os).
I find the camera fine as long as you do a little editing. Low light and night shots are a little iffy but you can still take great shots as long as you edit the photos. Photos in day light are fine. My old phone was an XS Max and the camera scores better than that in testing. Again edit the photos.
Pictures are almost the same as my mi 10. All ok.

I'm using mi 11i for 2 months and the camera quality is not good, autofocus is struggling in low light.
ofcourse it has no OIS so it ramps up ISO thus useless in low light
I have both Mi 11i och Xiaomi 11T in front of me. 11T takes much better low light shots compared to 11i despite having the same main camera sensor and Dimensity 1200 instead of SD888. Probably more optimized software on 11T.
Camera is good for me it takes good selfie and landscape shots. I was also thinking camera might be garbage and this phone can't be used for photography but I was wrong. It is not excellent nor garbage.
The Camera is good but the stock camera app is really bad, taking pictures with pro mode (manually) or with Gcam is astonishingly good.
but the main camera app over-sharpens and over processes the image resulting in noise.

About cameras, I'm disappointed by the 108 MP photos, as camera (digital) zoom is limited to x2, which is a shame in such a HiRes lens.
