Lmao .. Xiaomi camera is not as good as you portray it to be jare. I have used Samsung, Huawei, Sony, they are miles better than Xiaomi. We all know Xiaomi is a good phone cos it's cheap with good specs but camera wise, it's average cos they don't do well for me. My cousin gat redmi note 7and I have mi9t. I am not a camera freak but the few shot taken from my mi9t ain't that dope abeg. I used d gcam, it was worse.

Stock camera mi9t not good? Gcam+mi9t worse? You definitely don't know how to use your camera or use Gcam then. Click on these links below and see for yourself.

Check these Astrophotography pics by the Mi9t Pro.

I could add more links tbh. So many beautiful Mi9t pictures taken by people like you. They're not pros.

It is somehow the way people buy phones and can't use them properly and then blame Xiaomi.
Your inability to use your phone and software properly isn't = Xiaomi is bad or Xiaomi camera is bad.

Plus you're not the only one who has used other phone models. Some of us have used them too plus iPhones self. Xiaomi cameras are really good. Let's say you're right about Samsung camera being miles ahead(which is really wrong), why are they hustling for gcam on XDA too? I'm sure you see them complaining and requesting for Gcam ports too.

Are you aware its a Samsung lens in the Mi Note 10? The Note 7 uses a combination of a 12MP 1.25μm Sony Exmor RS IMX486 and a 48MP 0.8μm Samsung ISOCELL GM1. The Note 7 Pro and Mi A3 uses the Sony IMX 586 which is used in several other flagships due to its quality. Do these lenses sound cheap and low quality to you Even the Redmi 5 Plus uses a Sony IMX/Omnivison lens. The Note 5 Pro also uses a Sony/Samsung combo.
Xiaomi doesn't hold back on quality lenses for their camera.

Fix up bro.

Oga don't take me seriously o... I am a xiaomi user like u n I have the right to say what I want aiit. When you check other sites, you won't even see the cc9 in the list..it's good to see Dem on the list. They need to work more on their cameras generally n not only on flagships.

Never said you didn't have the right to speak your mind. But you keep contradicting yourself. You said your not a camera freak yet you keep going on and on about your phone's camera. You said Xiaomi should work on their cameras which they are doing yet you keep on complaining. And so you know cc9 isn't a flagship phone but a midrange phone and your mi9t will probably be more expensive than it, thats if the price of mi9t doesn't come down.

Mi9t camera is very good at least from the reviews online and even from other users here. Maybe like someone here has said already, you don't know how to use it. Its not a crime really, when I first used the Nokia 8.1 to take pictures, I had average results. But when the owner handled it, I marveled. Maybe you not being a camera freak like me too could have played a part wink

But I do accept we all have different taste, so if xiaomi ain't doing it for you. Nothing is stopping you from switching brands.

That's your personal opinion. You have a right to it

But you don't have any right to misinform people simply because it's your opinion

Those that know how to take pictures and harness the power of their camera knows that the camera on the Mi 9t is good enough


If I say something negative about my device, it will be misinformation. A lot of users post here daily expressing themselves. I ain't misinforming anyone..
I use mi 9t and I have every right to say what I want about my device. It's left for you or anyone to choose what misinform you.

You are the one sounding like a broken record. I use a mi9t and the camera is just there. I tried using gcam, it was worse. I was not impressed by the camera. Xiaomi is not that good in camera. I know xiaomi is cheap but they should also work on their cameras too..


Even me can never comment this on my beloved redmi 7

Hehehehehe. Boss man, na him you be. Na man you be. I have never for one regretted the choice
I think one reason I love it more for, is the rich customization options. That explains why I am stuck to yowhatsapp and just can deal with the stock whatsapp. Its fun and mind blowing to have control over your gadgets, esp the interface, suiting it to your taste.
I wish the app toggle option in the gesture options can switch between 3 apps not two. More like if you are on app B and you switch to the left, you move to app A and from app B if you switch to the right, you move to app C. I hope that is not Oliver Twist grin

All Samsung phones are beasts back to back.. You xiaomi warriors need to stop being delusion and stop comparing some new toy Chinese phones to Samsung phones as its an insult.. grin

Very many of us here, been there done that. The name Samsung doesn't mean anything special, if you ain't for value for money, forget about Xiaomi.

Really amazing how this Xiaomi phone brand continues to be like a nightmare in the minds of those who struggle to de-market it. A good product just can't help but sell.

Lol. I don't know about your experience with MI9T but when I first installed GCAM on my RN8, I was taking better pictures with my stock cam. I had to watch YouTube videos on mobile photography and started applying some of the tricks and tips and truthfully, I've become better with both stock cam and Gcam giving me better pictures now. GCAM still delivering better shots though. I'm not a camera person too but ever since I got RN8, I've become a camera person (...taking shots of objects and people though!)

I'll advice you try to tweak your photography skills. I've seen Bazkid24 shots on MI9T and I'm impressed. Xiaomi camera doesn't give shots like that of iPhone or high end Sammy though but it's pretty decent when you're skillful enough.

Lol.. it's good to see them on the list. With 108mp, you are supposed to be on the list but they should keep that same energy in their other phones n not flagships. xiaomi cc9 is their best camera phone aiit.. camera wise or video shoot, it is not better than iPhone 11 pro or Huawei aiit..
I guess it's high time we start been fair in our comparison based on price point.
IPhone 11pro how much?
Xiaomi cc9 how much?
I know the difference will be mind boggling but put them side by side I'm sure xiaomi xiaomi cc9 will hold its own against the iPhone 11pro, this in life is called value for money! Xiaomi dey try abeg!
