P20 Pro vs Pixel 2 XL...
I have both devices currently and from my very brief short time with the P20 pro , the pictures taken with it don't even come close to the quality you can get from the Pixel 2 XL.
Please tell me its just a case of faulty software, else I think I may be taking this phone back sadly.
Problems so far
Images lack any real detail and are very soft
HDR mode still hidden
Night Mode whilst great is still a 4 sec picture.. (but still soft ) - (The advantage you get from those 4 secs does not seem worth it from my quick test - but i'll keep testing)
Camera UI is rubbish... (subjective i know)
But it will be interesting to know if anyone else as similar experiences , as most reviewers online appear to suggest that this is the best camera phone ever!

Photo Quality
Have taken a few shots with the camera, the modes are the same pretty much as in the Mate 10 Pro so you have fully manual "Pro Mode" which shoots RAW plus a range of features including;
HDR
Light Painting
Monochrome
Aperture
Portrait
Night Shot
Panorama
The beauty mode is now a lot less aggressive on 0 setting and in portrait mode you can get some amazing detail and shallow depth of field.
The overall star is night shot which takes a 3 second long exposure which is fully stabilized and its like a super HDR setting which blows away the Mate 10 Pro I had before. Even using zoom (pinch to zoom on screen is enabled) the level of detail and depth is like using a dedicated camera.
I think with photography and equipment there is a large element of variation in the skill of the reviewers and unless you have both cameras in identical circumstances which is nigh on impossible, its difficult to be fair to compare. A lot of reviews I have seen go on about the AI not being perfect, which it isn't yet on any phone but its nice that this technology is developing to allow better shots for average Joe.
I normally use a full frame Sony Alpha and I can honestly say so far the image quality I am getting on the P20 Pro is the best of any phone I have used.
I cant comment on the XL but I have owned the Mate 10 Pro, Note 8, S8+ and IPhone 7 all recently and although these are all good phones with great cameras the shots I have got out of the P20 Pro so far have impressed me a lot more.
As a side note personally I would never use any of the AI modes except Night Shot, I never use the AI enabled render modes which is where many of the reviewers have had problems because its not a perfected science yet.

This is a good phone to benchmark the camera chops of the reviewer, those who can actually do anything more than point n shoot photos are taking amazing shots with this phone. I'm stunned how good a lot of the shots are.

It's the zoom that really makes this phone. You can extract detail from shots that no other phone (especially the pixel 2) could remotely pull off. You can frame a subject at 5x zoom and get a detailed shot whereas the pixel 2 would be a blurry mess.

Disappointing
I'm also comparing shot for shot with the Pixel 2 XL and finding so far, apart from zoom, the P20 Pro is inferior to the Pixel 2. So far using only auto mode on both phones the Pixel shots are visibly superior, picking out more detail and producing better low light pictures. The only exception is the 5x zoom which is absolutely phenomenal on the P20. I've yet to try any night shots because it's been pretty much constant rain since the phone arrived. Considering the hype, I'm really disappointed in it. I know if I pull out the Pixel and grab a shot it's going to be good 99% of the time. I don't want to have to **** around with the settings every time I want to take a photo. Also the front facing camera is a joke. Even with beauty mode turned off, the image lacks detail and is ridiculously overexposed. The AI isn't particularly useful either - tried taking a photo of my dog in the garden and the AI went nuts flicking between the dog and greenery settings. There's a good camera in this phone but the Huawei processing is smothering it.

Huawei camera always more suitable for professional or those who love to play with settings. As a point and shoot I do see Samsung and pixel are capable of shooting better photos. But with a superior hardware I do believe there is nothing Huawei can't fix with a software update.

In P20 pro u use 40mp or 10mp supersampling resolution? Better stick to 10mp dude, and did it has an option to turn off the AI scene recognition? If have, turn it off.

The biggest problem I'm having is the wildly variable greens. Sometimes it will go nuts and make grass look like some kind of weird neon lit alien landscape then in the next shot, perfect. This happens with the AI on and off. Everything else is pretty close to natural, just doesn't seem able to handle grass.

Hello guys.. p20 pro camera is doing well but no perfect!! Im sure that will be an update as fast as possible... but the realy problem isnt the 40 mp camera but the selfie camera witch is 24mp and the quality is very low and some times selfi captures seems discolored!!
anyone else noticed that discolored?

Bad quality for the hardware that's inside. Terribly overprocessed images that looks very fake most of the time. Only way to bypass that is to shot in 40mp but that introduces heavy purple fringe. Someone at Huawei should get fired. Both my iPhone X and LG V10 gives me better images.

Not so bad I think. But I agree often color are overexposed, and I close the Ai suggestion to have better result especially in greenery

justyourimage said:
Well yes.
It's surprising that Huawei actually managed to load a Smartphone full of a Camera Sensor with 1/1.7" size 1.6 Aperature, OIS on all three cameras and still doesn't manage to make a simple non-progressed picture under daylight conditions that looks like a $50 phone from 2008. Most $100 China-Smartphones from 2017 do manage to make better-looking pictures.
I don't know who in their Software-Devision took drugs to actually **** up that bad but yes - it's purely software releated.
Most likey due to both cameras adding the picture in overlay mode even while shooting with the main-sensor without any after-processing would be more then plenty with that capable hardware.
Actually maybe that Aperature is the only drawback I'm seeing (lens-flare) where the S9+ has a hand over it but aside from that ...
And ****ing the Software so much up is actually a bad thing. I'd recommend anyone to wait a few months to see if they even mange to fix it - unless you're shooting RAW only in Manual Mode.
Maybe if we're lucky we'll see a ported Google Camera with HDR+ on it ...
Sight, that thing is a beast tamed with the worst software I've seen in a long time. Kinda reminding me of the LG when it was going back to down ...
If I were Huawei I'd fire my Software devision and pay Google to actually develop a working Software for them.
Manual Mode or not, there is a limit how stupidly broken you can make an Auto-Mode ... and calling that thing AI-Powered is even more funny.
Just look at the daylight samples of DXoMark ... it should have never gotten such high scores at all at its current stage (that's Huawei for you ...)

That guy had me at *wearing a Stratovarius t-shirt* lol

I recently bought a P20 and as a previous P10 owner, the front 24mp camera of the P20 is AWFUL. I will NOT sugar coat it but this thing has a very very bad front camera. It looks like an upscaled 5MP camera. Images are soft and overexposed. Dynamic range is pretty bad! Huawei just wanted to put a higher resolution since most China OEMs have 24MP cameras these days.
The 8mp f/1.9 front camera of the P10 is much clearer, sharper in ALL lighting conditions. I miss the feature wherein the front camera field of view will change if you are taking a group shot.
Youtube reviewers are too scared to criticize the front camera solely because Huawei have been sponsoring their flights and accommodation on their annual P series events.

Redmi Note 7 pro has 48MP camera at an aperture of f/1.8. You can take Low Light shots even more darker compared to Redmi Note 6 pro. Whereas Redmi Note 6 pro has an aperture of f/1.9.

Stellar!

The camera is much worse than rn5 whyred, especially with the stock app which succefully removes any details. Most likely because of very aggressive noise filtering. Simply you won't see any grass, only a pond of green color. There is a lot of light leak between the pixels so everything is "glowing". The excessive filtering might be avoided by using non stock app like gcam or opencamera but with these apps you will get absolutely washed colors - almost no difference between red, pink or orange.
Tried with two versions of miui as i got an ota update, unfortunately i don't remember which version it was. Returned my unit on 15.4. and went back to rn5 even though I had to pay about 30usd for the return.
Both phones are global version.
Disappointed.

Are you talking about vince or whyred? I am thinking of replacing my vince with this phone. Should I just not bother?

I have the whyred now. You'd better try the 7 if you have the chance. I also didn't like that the glass back is slippery and even if you place the phone on some rubber it might be pulled out of it with just a weight of the charging cable.. But this is not so serious problem.
Noticeable improvement is the display and the 3.5mm jack audio quality, this is much better on the 7.

Super Photo Quality of Both Camera Regard To Price Range.
Rear Camera More Accurate Than Front Camera.

So far so good, I keep my expectations to a minimum and so am quite happy with the results. Not every phone is built to be the best. For the price I paid its well worth , it takes pics that are as good as my Oneplus 6 which costs twice as much

Apparently there will be an update to camera, both in terms of performance and functionality, it should be available to download at 28th May, which should be just before it gets released in most places.

At least according to Asus Sweden

According to pocket-link, this phone can shoot multiple frame resulting in 109 megapixel photos. I haven't read from other sites before.
https://www.pocket-lint.com/phones/reviews/asus/147785-asus-zenfone-6-review-flip-camera

Does the Phone support raw shooting? If so from the 48MP camera and/or the 13PM wide?

All of this but no mention of the zoom capabilities.
Obviously optical zoom would have been mentioned, but I'm wondering how the digital zoom is before the image starts breaking up.

There is a good comparison here including zoom
Really holds up well

Im holding off at present, some of the pics look way to soft, and way to much colour saturation.

Don't expect huge improvements from what they've delivered in the past. They do have some new tech to play with to improve night shots thanks to the 48MP sensor (although missing OIS). And some will prefer the superior front cam capabilities for sure.

New update, also enables EIS on 4k 60 fps filming, from this video:

DXoMark does smartphones as 'selfie' (front) and 'mobile' (rear) with separate reviews. I imagine the criteria is different so they can't use one score for both still. If you look at any rear cam review the photos are a mix of people and objects, while the front cam reviews are practically entirely people based (hence 'selfie' score). It won't necessarily get the same score as a rear cam as it does a selfie cam since there is different criteria to keep even testing.

I do have to add, that I tested the fine detail of the 48MP Redmi note 9S vs the LG G6 16MP camera, static shot, side to side and guess what, at the same image width, the LG is sharper and has more detail
48 super mega random pixels LOL

/\ Megapixels was never a comparison thing.. You have to dig into pixel density of the sensor, not quantity of Megapixels.. that's noob.... I'm on iPhone 8 Plus right now and it have only 12MP and is SUPERB.. But I'm planning to buy a cheaper phone.. I would add that Redmi note 9 Pro has 64MP sensor I guess.. It's a little bit better.. the photo is larger and so it can accomodate more pixel density.. I don't know if my iPhone 8 Plus is better or not regarding camera but I won't afford another one if anyone steal it from me.

i just bought the RN9PRO global, i took this picture in 64MP this morning, what do you think of the quality ?

Quad Bayer 48MP means only 12MP after pixel binning. I do not see how choosing one from every four small pixels is better than simply having regular sized pixels without binning (other than being able to market it as a 48MP camera). The photo quality is not crap. It has less noise than my older phones. But that is all I can say about it.

Here is a sample image. It is a set of three images of the same scenary side-by-side. Among the first two (left and centre), one is taken in 48MP mode, the other is taken in default mode. I will not tell which one is taken in 48MP mode. See if you can figure it out. (Hint: You can not, because there is no difference). The last one (rightmost one) is HDR.
https://imgur.com/d66cSqS.jpg
Notice how the HDR mode preserves a lot more details in the darker areas, but everything in the brighter areas get a ton of halo around themselves. The halo is present in non-HDR image too, but its effect is much less.
Overall, this camera is nothing special.

Camera on curtana sucks! I don't like it at all. My old oneplus phone can even do better shots than it.

Honestly, I didn't like it.. It's blurred(not focused) on the center of image.. look likes there's a huge circle unfocused on center..
I guess I will go for S10 Lite or S10+

Well, I have noticed that you can zoom-in deeper with the gallery app on pics taken with 48MP mode.
But the differences on quality compared to pixel binning pics is really small, on the screen of the phone almost not noticeable.
Cam is okay for quick shots, I guess.
But what I'm missing for example are details when zooming into a taken pic. When zooming in, pics becoming blurry fast, will say things that are more in the background are not really as sharp as I wish they would be.
Have also tested different versions of GCam, but returned to the stock cam app. It gives me the "best" results and works most stable.

I'm on MIUI 12, so far I'm not that impressed.
I already understood that gcam is going to be mandatory here.
There is a white hue on many photos. It mostly overexpose photos. If you are trying to focus on a dark object, the photo will be extremely overexposed. This did not happen with my 2017 LG V30.
There is no real feedback for a good focus. Tap to focus, but nothing really tells you it's locked.
The location of the wide angle lens is impossible not to touch if you're holding the phone with you left hand.
I only have it for 1 day , I'll have to test it longer.
Still searching for the perfect gcam version.
Pure Image quality: Noise reduction algorithm can be weird sometimes. Photos tend to be overexposed. Lack contrast.

if you're interested in whole range gcam results, I uploaded full size samples here:

Which version of gcam are you using ? And where can I get the ultimate xml ?

New version of VCX forum out today.
https://vcx-forum.org/score/version-2020
Mi 10 Pro general good score except for performance(AF/timing). 1 point!!!

Yeah but those results are all using the built in app and who actually uses the built in rubbish ?
Would be good to see camera reviews with Gcam installed but no reviewer seems to be aware of Gcam ports, I think they all live under rocks.

I don't underestimate VCX forum. I think they know about Gcam. However, in their measurement and comparison they use stock cam apps and I think that is reasonable.
If the Xiaomi stock app is that bad, then Xiaomi must do something about it, their own product.
That said, the score for Mi 10 Pro in image quality is actually good.

Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro Photo Quality
As far as the cameras are concerned, the Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro on the rear packs a 108-megapixel primary camera with an f/1.69 aperture and a pixel size of 1.6-micron; a second 8-megapixel camera with an f/2.0 aperture and a pixel size of 1.0-micron; a third 12-megapixel camera with an f/2.0 aperture and a pixel size of 1.4-micron and a fourth 20-megapixel camera with an f/2.2 aperture. The rear camera setup has autofocus. It sports a 20-megapixel camera on the front for selfies.

And your point is ? We all know the specs this thread is about picture quality.

can you pls post some pictures? i want to buy the mi 10 pro but i see a lot of noise in those pictures, blurry photos, take a look at the guy up posted some picturesc with chimney. only the chimney looks good the rest is rubish, a lot of noise and distorsion. how is this good? and he used gcam i'd wish to see a comparison between p40 pro and mi 10 pro but with latest firmwares maybe with gcam on both. for me this pics are just not worth 1.000 euros

There is only noise when you zoom in very far, the pics are great with gcam with all three cameras, the 8mp 3.7 zoom lens gives surprisingly good results too, I dont use the built in camera app, I never do, gcam is best, plenty of reviews around with pics. Cant upload examples cos theyre too large.

Say "cheese", then rate this thread to express how photos taken with the Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro come out. A higher rating indicates that photos offer rich color (without over-saturating), sharp detail (with all subjects in-focus), and appropriate exposure (with even lighting).
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
