- pwarner 6y agoThey some times back port these, I am unclear if they will or won't here? Agree it would be awesome!
- viraptor 6y agoAnd to generic android as well. I get that they want differentiation, but there's serious lack of other implementation in play store. For actually good hdr it looks like there's pixel or nothing. I'd be happy to pay quite a bit to get their new HDR+ on a OnePlus for example.
- metalliqaz 6y agothe pixel phones have specialized DSPs (pixel visual core, pixel neural core) that probably can't be counted on in generic android
- viraptor 6y agoThat's just a speed improvement though, right? You could do the same in software if you sacrifice the live preview.
- metalliqaz 6y agotrue, but why spend the money on man-hours to implement it?
- seized 6y agoThere is a hacked Camera APK that restores features and backports new features to old phones. It's not perfectly stable on my Pixel 2 but its close. Restored Burst shots as a feature (my main goal), brought focus tracking and astrophotography improvements. And it can be installed along side the stock camera. https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/google-camera-mods/gcam-google-pixel-1-2-3-t3875663?goto=newpost https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/google-camera-mods/gca...
