A higher rating indicates that the camera sensor "sees" lots of light in dim conditions, and that the resulting photos have minimal noise. A higher rating also indicates that when the flash fires, the resulting photo is evenly-lit without any bright spots.

Really good at night, and the noise reduction is pretty good. The night mode tends to oversharpen and mess up the white balance. However, it still adds a ton of dynamic rabge and if held steady, gives you very decent shot half the times. It can't always nail the exposure though, Google does that better with night sight.
Non night mode shots are usually a bit underexposed to save the highlights from blowing out. Sometimes, the Auto Hdr will kuck in , and you will have to hold your phone steady for a second.I find taking hdr pucs rather slow with p20.
There is a decent amount of detail, but sometimes the oversharpening can make it look bad, but of course p20 pro beats p20 by a decent margin because of the quad bayer pixel binning.
The manual mode is really handy for low light. You can even shoot bulb mode(super long exposure), the iso range 50-3200, exposure is +-3, same for the monochrome camera. Manual focusing sucks with the stock camera, as there is no focus peaking.
I prefer using OpenCamera HDR for daytime, it's way better than stock camera app as long as we are talking close to base ISO.

Low light performance is not good; very grainy, colors are bad. Outdoor/daytime pics are decent though.
It's true in that the low light pics aren't the greatest. Still, the image stabilizer works well in low light, and the f1. 8 aperture is a huge help for photos without flash.
Personally, I don't mind some noise in certain low light shots. It adds some old school 35mm film vibe to the photos, which I love.
The quality in low light is very similar to shooting with a Ricoh GRD4. It's grainy but it's usable. I'm still having trouble diffusing the onboard flash without the flash reflecting back to my image, but for now, I use the Aputure ML-M9 to compensate.
Actually the low light performance impressed me big time. I've recently used Moto G6 play, Moto Z, and Moto X 2014. The G6 camera is very comparible to the Moto Z and blows the other two away. Last night I took a pic of my cat in very dim evening lighting. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't pitch dark, but it would have been hard to read a book.

Really nice cam. i loved it in natural light. IT IS A MID RANGE CELLPHONE.

some pictures taken by the stock camera, except the first and second taken by the google camera.
5/10 for low light performance.
LG G7 has 1 micron sensors both wide and main. The sensor is not suitable for low light as it introduces lot of noise. But LG have a trick up it's sleeve "Super bright camera" which combines 4 megapixels into one giving 4 megapixel image. This produces bright but very soft image with details lacking. This approach is inferior to the likes of Google/Huawei night mode as they keep shutter open for longer time.
But it has some pros when shooting a scene with moving objects.
It struggles in low light. Very low quality pictures are coming out.

As I test this device's camera, I think it's one of the weakest things this device can do. Noisy and blurry for a low-light shot.
Edit: I wish I have to reconsider/edit my rating as I also test my family's Vivo mid-range phones without enhancements but HDR (to compare with) can take pictures in low light even worse than this MI A2 Lite, although it's still noisy.
Very bad results with low ligth

I have yet to revise this review again that, due to custom ROMs that fixed GCam focus, manually adding cam2api and GCam, the low light shooting did improved, although sometimes blurry, especially without tripod; but there's a huge improvement over stock anything.
Try painting what you see in low light. I'm sure you will get better results than the camera on this phone.

Low light photography leaves much to be desired. The rear camera performance is satisfactory but for the front camera, without any proper flash, low-light selfies leave much to be desired. The photos taken in low-light are sub-par to be honest and can be improved much more with better optimization is software since the sensors are already very good in my opinion.

I'm so waiting for bootloader unlock so I can install Pixel Experience ROM + latest Gcam.

Really impressive low light performance as expected.
Night mode portrait shots are unreal. I have been comparing to my wife's pixel 4 and the difference really is night and day

That's interesting that the night mode has better results on the Pixel 5 compared to the Pixel 4. The camera hardware and software are both exactly the same.

You see any problem in display like hitting in outdoors if you use only few minutes
Test

Low light photos taken with the wide lens are horrendous, once the ISO creeps up they are quickly become unusable with terrible noise towards the corners.
Of course you can use night sight and then you don't have a lowlight photo any more.
