Hello i own laser zenfone 2 laser ZE500KL , here in italy it is sold with a 8 mpx camera while the same model in spain and guess in the rest of the world with a 13 mpx camera. I have seen website www.asusparts.eu sells the 13 mpx camera module and it says it is compatible with my model. Do you think i could just replace my 8 mpx with this 13 mpx one or it will not work?
I don't think it will work. It's not just hardware, but software too.
im interested in buying the asus zenfone 2 laser, the 5.0 inches display, since i can only spend around 200€, i went for a deep search on some stores on my country and some of them told that the rear camera has 8mps or 13mps, as you can see:
gsmarena:
(can't provide links) - ze500kl as 13 mp on the rear camera
(can't provide links) - ze550kl as 13 mp on the rear camera
fnac:
(can't provide links) - ze500kl (8mp rear camera)
(can't provide links) - ze550kl (13mp rear camera)
a portuguese store:
(can't provide links)- ze500kl (they said that he has a 8mp rear camera)
(can't provide links) - ze550kl (they said that the 5.5 inches display version has a 8mp rear camera )
i would like to know the real specs, and if the 13mp camera has a huge diference between the 8mp camera version and some samples.
up
i have the ,8 mpx camera, quality is often far to be acceptable. Macro are always very good thanks to laser focus but in general rumor is high and quality not high as it could be (i came from galaxy s3, i may be vitiated)
let me hit this up.
I am really curious myself.
i have a laser 2 5.0 and the specs are really confusing whenever i search online.
i hope someone would enlighten us.
Please...
It's Asus that messes up with the devices naming schemes.
There are two types of ZE500KL:
- the models with 8Mpx camera and 2070mAh battery;
- the models with 13Mpx camera and 2400mAh battery.
Asus attach a second model identifier to the main model name, but it's usually omitted.
For example, my phone is ZE500KL-1A224WW and it's a 13Mpx model.
In Italy stores sell only 8Mpx models so I buy it from Spain, that seems the only European country where you can find the 13Mpx models.
For ZE550KL there is a similar situation, with some models that uses Snapdragon 410 and other Snapdragon 615, but they are all ZE550KL.
I think that big differences like these should change the main model name, to generate less confusion.

Camera mode Super resolution doesn't work since I bought the phone.
It make photos but resolution of the photos instead 52mp is 13mpx.
It show me the long processing screen when I capture, but the result after is nothing.
I ask asus about this problem and ofcourse I still don't have answer.
Am I the only one with this problem.
Any suggestions ? Please.
I'm with the latest software, and I try to clean cash of the camera app, no success.

16 MP Back = [OmniVision] ov16885
5 MP Back = [GalaxyCore] gc5025
16 MP Front = [OmniVision] ov16880
Most probably root is must for checking these informations. You can try "Device Info HW" app.
Thanks

I've not rooted the phone so I can't see the info, but I doubt whether the front camera is ov16880...
From Google, we can see the other phones which uses ov16880 module as back camera can even support 4K video and the result is much better than the one in front camera of Max Pro M1 6GB.

Because it also depends on SoC. I'm attaching a screenshot to show you that I didn't give wrong information.
By the way, latest GCam mod by Arnova8G2 added 4K video recording support on front camera.

Okay...
How about the focus mode? How come the sensor is capable of more focus modes, but it only has fixed focus as front camera here?
Btw, I can't take photo without turning on HDR or HDR+ with this gcam...

You're wrong in both cases.
Check the last line of the screenshot. It says fixed focus for front cam. The focus modes written in the middle is for back cam. Both are described in the screenshot.
And second, yes, I can take photos without turning HDR or HDR+ on.

Of course I know the fixed focus is for front cam. I'm just asking why the same sensor in other phones can have many focus modes while it only has fixed focus as front camera here.
Because in my old phone I can tap to focus using front cam, and now when I tap the focus is still fixed. I can focus on specific object in front cam of old phone but not for in max pro m1. When I am close to the camera enough the things in back is naturally blur in viewfinder, not fake one synthesized by alogrithm. It was a phone made in 2015.
Can you take photos for both front and back cams without turning HDR or HDR+ on using this gcam?
Are you using custom rom? I'm 6GB variant phone on stock Oreo. Thanks.
Just for curious hows Gcam on 6gb vs 4gb.???
( As i know 6gb have better camera capacity than 4 gb )

Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 6GB vs Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 3GB/4GB Camera Comparison

The cameras of the 3GB/4GB variants are disasters.
The sensors of 6GB variant are good overall but a bit weak in low light in some cases. This can be solved using gcam when you takes photos.

I have received the 6GB ZB602KL (ASUS_X00TD) global version from Gearbest but the front camera is 8MP instead of 16MP, which region version did I receive and which region has the 16MP front on the 6GB version?

As far I know, ZB601KL has 16 MP front camera on 6 GB variant, which is probably for Indian & Indonesian markets only.
On the other hand, International variant has 8 MP front cam. But this model also has NFC, which is not available in 601KL variant.

It's the same apk I've installed.
Check if camera2api / HAL3 is enabled on your device.

May be unable to install the app because it conflicts with an already installed app with same package name i.e. System Camera app .
Have you uninstalled system camera app?

Unpack the apk.
Change package name in AndroidManifest.xml.
Repack.
Now uninstall the previous one, and install the one you just repacked.
