In our previous article, we have shown you the steps to install Google Camera on Xiaomi POCO F3 and X3 Pro smartphones. As we know, mid-budget smartphones often do not provide high-quality camera performance. And sometimes there is a need for third-party camera apps, among which one of the famous apps is Google Camera. So, today we will show you the tutorial to help you download Google Camera on your Redmi Note 10 / 10 Pro smartphones.
Redmi Note 10 / Pro Camera Parameters
It is also worth mentioning that the rear camera of Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 consists of 48MP (wide) + 8MP (ultra-wide) + 2MP (macro) + 2MP (depth) lenses that help to capture pictures with professional experience. The front camera has a 13MP resolution.
The quad-camera of the Redmi Note 10 Pro includes a primary 64MP sensor, an 8MP wide lens, a 5MP macro lens, and a 2MP lens for depth photography. The other suggested features of the camera include Exposure compensation, High Dynamic Range mode (HDR), and Digital Zoom. In addition, Xiaomi has placed a 16MP shooter in the front fascia of the device for selfies and video calls.
Google Camera features
As mentioned before, the highlights of the Google Camera are HDR+, portrait mode, night mode, panorama, and photosphere.
HDR: When the HDR feature is active, the phone usually takes 3 photos and processes them together to adjust the dynamic range, colors, and contrast. In Google Camera, this is achieved by taking 5-15 photos, not 3 photos. In addition, the main thing is that although the number of photos taken increases, the speed of shooting and processing of the photo does not slow down too much.
Motion and Panorama: When Motion is on, a short video is captured with the photo and embedded in the photo. There are 4 shooting options in Panorama mode – horizontal, vertical, wide-angle, and fisheye options.
Photosphere: Photosphere is actually a panorama mode taken in 360 degrees. However, it is offered to users as a separate option in Google camera.
