I recently bought a Mi 5s plus for a cheap price and it had dual cameras one rgb and one monochrome,but I can't seem to access the secondary camera with other camera apps other than the miui camera,any apps that can do this?

Hi,
I would like to buy this phone. The camera quality is on the 1. place for me.
I have read many review but everybody is talking differently...
I currently own Gionee E7 with great 16MP OmniVision shooter and I am
really afraid to swap it...
So is that 21mp camera good or not comparing to etc. Samsug galaxy s6??
Could someone upload unedited photos somewhere?
How camera quality is related to ROM updates?
Thanks!
There's camera samples everywhere, the sony imx 230 is very good at daylight, but for low light it is very under saturated! Also pretty noisy.
I reccomend to buy LeMax2 if you aim to buy a powerful device at a relative low price.
Otherwise, if camera is your number one reason to buy a phone, you should skip this.
It has a good camera, and sometimes you can take really good shots with enough lighting, but comparison with Galaxy S6 and others top-of-the-line smartphones is unfair.
Moreover, ROM developers are struggling to get full functionality with the camera, unless they aren't original based ROMs, so you are limited to EUI as of now.
And to add something, LeMax2 sensor camera is the same as these devices:
LeTV One Max X900
Meizu PRO 6, PRO 5
Honor 7
Elephone Vowney, M3
Lenovo Vibe X3
Sony Xperia Z5, Z3+, M5
Motorola Moto X Force, Moto X Play, Moto X Style, Droid Turbo 2
Thank you Star_dust6 for great answer!
It seems I will skip this device because of camera...

You're welcome.
As for smartphones with a really good camera, you should aim for something like LG G5: is a little bit expensive (350 €), but worth every penny.
I have 2 redmi note 4 one I buy in March but unfortunately its 100% damage...so I buy second redmi note 4 who comes with Samsung camera sensor...so I am not satisfied with Samsung camera sensor pictures specially when I zoom any object pictures is not good...so I open my new rn 4 and remove the camera and inserted Sony imx258 camera but when I open camera app its says error... So I inserted Samsung camera again...so I wanna know any method is possible if I root my phone and change my Samsung camera sensor to Sony.the Sony camera sensor form old rn 4 who comes with Sony.
I don't know but if I was you, I'd install the better camera sensor, then flash the latest MIUI developer ROM with MiFlash. This way probably some config or firmware file will be updated and the camera will work (maybe a simple reset could do the trick).
Bro not work i flash with fastboot... But not opening the camera of sony.

There is a different camera models with different connectors model 3 / 32Gb is not the same as the model with 4 / 64GB.
The connector is in fact the same visual but your contacts do not match.
check this video:

So, does anyone know which version works best for the Redmi 5 Plus? I am mainly looking for a version for the back camera, I don't really care for the selfie camera if there's a version which works for both, fine then, but I mainly focus on the back camera.
Hi,
I'm going to purchase a rear camera to replace the old one, it is not working anymore. does the version matter?
I have 829, if I purchase 820 camera, is it the same?
Thanks
To whomever hold the stock version (will not root) of latest firmware I have few questions, before buying Redmi Note 5 (please include screenshots):
1. What are the options for camera and manual (pro camera if exists) camera? Resolution list for both photos and video and every available option in settings, on actual camera menu (portrait, regular mode, video mode...etc.) for both cameras (back and front).
2. Can you change themes (like Huawei has)?
3. How loud is the speaker and quality? (Both earpiece and loud speaker).
4. Does notification led work on every app? (FB messenger, Skype, Viber)
5. FM radio and IR blaster (remote control) how does it look?
6. How good is the WiFi and network (cellular) reception?
7. How fast is fingerprint unlock?
I'm buying it for my wife, to replace her Galaxy S4...finally, to suprise her. Salaries in Serbia are crap, but I managed to save some money.
Thanks in advance.

I'm running MIUI 10 on Redmi 5 Plus (64gb, 4gb ram, global version).
Redmi Note 5 is definitely worth the upgrade if your wife owns galaxy s4. You would surprise your lady in your life.
1) the stock camera app in MIUI has some interesting features. She'll like it.
2) themes are very much customizable.
3) sound quailty is much better than galaxy s4.
4) led light always works (depends on settings).
5) I don't use fm radio/ir blaster.
6) the phone communicates well without any noticeable loss.
7) the back fingerprint scanner unlocks fast. It's just awkward to use with short fingers.
One more point to note that you will get a free phone case and 5v*2a charger. And obviously you will continue to use your wired earbuds. Thanks to 3.5mm audio jack. Your wife won't like large/bulky wireless earbuds.

I have the global 3/32 version with latest miui, no root.
1) Camera is "fine", it's not a camera phone, I suggest you watch one of the many reviews on youtube.
2) You can change themes but not in all countries, you'll have to change country setting to have it work. I don't use the function, I like miui as it is out of the box.
3) Both good
4) It does, I don't use the apps you specifically requested but for whatsapp, twitter, reddit etc it does.
5)FM radio works with earphones plugged in (the serve as an antenna); I use the Ir blaster A LOT for work reasons and the pre installed app has a list of codes but it's mainly chinese stuff, I use Anymote for TVs mainly.
6)I guess it depends on the service provider coverage in your area but I noticed that my note5 has way better reception than my p8 lite 2017, and it shows on battery life, when I have low reception on my p8 the battery drains faster, this does not happen on the redmi.
7)Really, really fast.
Also, battery life (for how I use it at least) it's awesome. I can effertlessy achieve 6 hours SOT with a charge.
Thanks for the info. But, can you provide me with some screenshots of some of the items I had questions for. Especially for camera.
Yes, I found some reviews but it was from firmware long ago. I need to see if they changed something for manual mode on camera.

I recommend Redmi Note 7 or some other device like Mi A2 which are same price/higher a little depends but they give better quality If you don't use gcam instead of Redmi 5.
1) Stock is pretty decent nothing to be proud of and the manual mode is pretty meh... you can record in 4k 30fps which is better than 1080p and you can use EIS but It'll crop and only works at 1080p which is meh there is portrait mode for the front camera which is also meh and edge detection depends on the lighting there is no portrait mode for rear camera aka back camera. GCAM greatly improves the quality on front and back camera It's way sharper, less noise/at all and for video recording well that's not that good but there are manual cameras on Google Play Store which I use and they're perfect with some post processing It's very good. Also GCAM unlocks Portrait Mode for Rear Camera and It works great... I mean If you want to take pictures that r serious then use GCAM but If you want ok pictures just for memory then use stock. However If you buy the Redmi 5 Pro version It has portrait mode in the rear/back camera.
2) Yes themes are ok but last time I checked you can't apply 3rd party themes which is extremely annoying from Xiaomi but maybe It's changed now but I can't help you cause I use HavocOS but they can change alot and even better If you use substratum along.
3) They're pretty ok/loud but Viper4Android greatly improves that but requires root.
5) FM Radio works not sure how It's on stock cuz I use Pie but It works and IR Blaster works too you can download the Mi Remote app even on Pie to use it. (U need to have headphonoes plugged for me)
6) It's good for me 4g but not 4g+ or something like 5g lol and Wifi is good.
7) Fingerprint is fast even on custom roms It's good.
Thanks, but I do not want to root it. Even my Honor 7 isn't rooted, has no bloatware, but I use crc apps which work fine.
Mi A2 has stock Android (Android One) which I do not like, due to call/message/contact app and some other things and note 7 hasn't arrived yet in my country and I'm afraid when it comes, it will be 250 Euros.

I think the only way is to root your phone.
