On this camera tory, in politicians voice, I will say the eyes have it.

Detail is good but if the image is not good to the human eyes, people will always complain and you can't blame them.

I believe this camera wars will stop when xiaomi do the needful. Fix the camera mess! They excel in every other area (specs, battery, etc) but the camera......hmmmmm. Good today, poor tomorrow. Excellent under this condition, below standard in other situations.

Gptech:

Its our responsibility to know so manufacturers won't get the best of us, if we knew this earlier, am sure the megapixel war wouldn't have started, we would have been enjoying better camera qualities in general with lesser mega pixels, but since we thought megapixel means better pics, they used cheaper / weaker camera sensors with higher megapixels, and we paid more for less. Also there is currently the 'ram' race, many of us also think that higher ram translates to better faster speed and better multitasking, hence they pay a premium price for weak 4/6 gig ram devices that can't even stand good 3 gig ram devices, smh.

Gptech:

Yeah Xiaomi is not the best when it comes to camera in the world, but which Xiaomi devices are you referring to?

Gptech:

Naim be sweet talking after a dubious act, AliExpress need to find way to discourage this act, after waiting for such time dem suppose compensate buyer with at least 7.5% of cost of item for time wasting .

You were too fast . I was editing my post to show that it is mostly the budget ones.

Hahahahahahahaha, well, the Redmi devices weren't never camera centric, maybe this year will be different from the Redmi note 5.

Many of the redmi phones have relatively poor image quality despite having fairly decent camera specifications.

In my experience sha, dating back from Redmi 2 to awaiting RN5 and MN3, yes in low light the images suck (but this applies to most phone cameras across board too) but in good light and some tweaks in manual mode, you'll be surprised with the good outputs that even a low grade phone camera can generate.
A lot of times, the complainants don't even familiarize with the workings of the camera but rather remain in auto/default settings and sum up that the camera sucks. I've seen folks bitching that they've been scammed after buying expensive DSLRs and Mirroless saying that output was poor without bothering to know that you can't get the best out of cameras without working with the settings. I mean, that's why they were put there in the first place. Anyway, wetin I sabi ..?

Yes, they ship, but Xiaomi doesn't ship to Nigeria.

I would need a good review from yha.. Wen it arrives tanx

Before this, I used the hot 4, till it got stolen.....I think I prefer my hot 4 camera to this one ....Also used the hot S (8mp front), it's way doper than this 16mp front.

My bucket of popcorn just finished.



Abeg...
People wey dey find better picture samples for their Xiaomi devices, instead of jumping from one phone wagon to the other, why don't you just simply root your phone and get Google Cam working on your device?

It's very easy. I assure you that you'll forget that you were complaining about bad camera.

I just ordered another bucket of popcorn for you baba.

Must I root my phone before the Gcam can work?

If the default settings suck, it means the manufacturer sucks too. He/she does not need a PHD in customer relations to know that your default settings have to be the best possible.

Gptech:

Very correct, I wonder if many persons here have made use of or even know when to use HDR in their cameras. The HDR of the Redmi note 4x is really good in outdoors, some persons still doubt I snapped some pics with a phone.
This was taken on a very hot Saturday, the Sun was all out, normally your camera should either expose the building properly and over expose/blow out the sky or get the right exposure of the sky while leaving the building all dark, but HDR the balance, both sky and building properly exposed.

Screenshot please, you'll need to chat with the sellers.

Now if they buy based on megapixel numbers expecting it to be like Camon CX with the "same" 16MP but don't get the real life WOW factor in the camera, they could start feeling like all the other specs are not going to translate. That feeling is valid.
