Low light - Realme 5 Pro Real Life Review

At the club, at the bar, or just in your mom's basement, nighttime is when you come out to play. Rate this thread to express how the Realme 5 Pro's camera performs when no or low light is present. 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.

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 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.

Camera is exceptionally good.. It is performing great in every condition..
I think there is improvement need to be made in this department. Photos are over saturating in low light in default camera modes but are fine if settings are changed.

May I know what are kind of settings I need to change to reduce the over-saturation under low light condition ?
Would anybody be so kind to post some low light shots with the new AIS update? The update is expected to boost the phone’s l camera performance in the dark!
Low light is pretty impressive on the Honor 10. Much better than other phones in it's price range.

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.

I'd say it's not bad considering the price, but it surely suffers badly in these situations. Gcam helps it somewhat though.
I capture beautiful photos with Gcam, but the stock camera application does not take beautiful photos in the evening
i have captured stars, even the comet Neowise with the stock camera in pro mode. i am satisfied with the results.
Camera is not really usable in low light, unless taking portrait shots with flash. But then again, you can't expect anything at this price.
