This is it. This is crazy. Google has pwnd the night shooting market ever since there is a Pixel. No one comes even close, at least nothing even remotely close in price. This is why I am staying on my Pixel 2. For me at least there's no point in upgrade.
- sudosysgen 5y agoMany phones come close and even do better, just install GCam. It's in the software, not the hardware.

- bovine3dom 5y agoYou can get Google Camera to work on lots of other phones with a bit of effort: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/ https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/ I'm using it on my Poco F1 and the night sight works really well.
- izacus 5y agoWhile you can get it to kinda "work", it's never really very stable and results just aren't as good because the ML algorithms are trained on the exact sensor/optics used by the Pixels.
- bovine3dom 5y agoWell, lots of phones do use the same sensor as the pixels: https://www.kimovil.com/en/list-smartphones-by-lens-model/sony-imx363-exmor-rs https://www.kimovil.com/en/list-smartphones-by-lens-model/so... I've never used a Pixel but the results I get from GCam on my F1 are amazing. Miles ahead of the stock camera app.
- ksec 5y agoYes I was surprised when the Pixel launched it was so good in night mode. But I thought it is just software and everyone else would surely catch up within 2 years and the feature would becomes standard. But nearly 4 years later nothing even come close. At least not the camera app by default.
