While all descriptions (including those at Gearbest, where I bought the phone) of the Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 speak of a 48 megapixel and a 5 MP camera, all system info apps show me that my phone has one camera with 13.2 MP and the other with 12 MP. My Redmi Note 7 is the Global version. Have I got something wrong?

The sensor mounted on the Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 is the combination of four small pixels to obtain a larger pixel size. Specifically, CU 1.6 starting from CU 0.8.
The sensor included in the ultra-cheap phone is a Samsung ISOCELL S5KGM1. It has Tetracell technology, a technology that combines 4 adjacent pixels to work as a single pixel of larger size, thx to the Snapdragon 660 may be able to process the captured images generating a 48-MP photo.
If you want to take photos in this mode, in Miui you have the option of 48MP in the camera app.

Hi,
I actually saw some reviews of the latest REDMI NOTE 5 PRO . It also comes with a rear dual camera setup (12 MP + 5 MP) and a 20 MP front camera. It has EIS enabled when shooting videos with the rear camera (Something that still lacks in MI A1) . It also has portrait mode in the front camera (Also absent in Mi A1).
So, can anyone bring that camera bring that camera apk or something like that.
I know there are many Google camera threads present for this device but they require root. which i dont wanna do to my device .
Sorry, if i am posting this thread in wrong section.
dear black shark 2 user
How to activate the 48mp camera features?
I tried the pro mode, but I cant find 48 mp button like the redmi note 7 or mi 9 camera app does
mine is black shark 2 6/128 chinese version
thanks
It's a 48MP sensor, but the images are 12MP. It uses quad bayer filtering (images are 1/4 the MP count as the actual sensor). "Pixel binning" is the main term everyone uses for it.

I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure that's discussed in another thread already. This thread was asking for info about the sensor being 48MP.
I've been googling all over for redmin note 7 snapdragon 660 with 48MP which means middle east version comes with note 7 pro features but with SD660 so I'm confused to follow note 7 thread or note 7 pro thread
All Redmi Note 7 models except the Indian one come with the Samsung GM1 48 megapixel sensor. The Pro comes with a Sony 48 MP sensor which is reportedly better.

There are 3 different phones with confusingly similar names.
Redmi 7
Redmi Note 7
Redmi Note 7 Pro
This forum is for the Redmi Note 7. Both the Indian variant with the 12 mp camera and the Global variant with the 48 mp sensor that outputs 12 mp. There are other forums for the other phones.

I'm considering this as my next phone, and want to be sure this is the right thread. Could someone please let me know if this discussion is for the Redmi Note 7, Indian version, with 12MP + 2MP rear and 13MP Front Camera?

I have Redmi Note 7 Global Version 4/64, is my camera is 48px or 12px?
I read today that new version of Redmi note 7s is coming to India with new lenses and 48px camera.
What this means:
The Xaomi Redmi note that launched in India a few months ago comes with a different camera configuration than Redmi Note 7 launched in China. While the Chinese version features 48MP 5MP setup on the back the Indian version have 12MP 2MP sensors.
Gizmochina.com
I have global PFGMIXM version, what setup do I have?
Like Chinese or Indian?
Global is 48MP, you forgot to cover up your serial #, LOL
My global RN7 has 48 MP printed right below the camera flash. The Indian 12 MP has something different printed.

Yes it is 48MP camera - but none of the custom roms support it for some reason.
I found this on Reddit:
* Redmi note 7 India : S660, 12+2
* Redmi note 7 Global: S660, 48+5
* Redmi note 7 Pro India: S675, 48+5
* Redmi note 7 Pro China (There is no global): S675, 48+5
So this is nothing to get excited about, its probably 660, 48+5. The global Note 7 coming to India as 7S. I hope i am wrong about this.

Because It is software enhance to 48MP. The hardware is actually just 12MP.
Ultra confused ʕ º ᴥ ºʔ
I live in india on Flipkart i saw a redmi note 7 with 12mp camera and an other redmi note 7S with 48mp camera
Now the question is that i am purchasing this phone for using custom ROMs which one should I go for?
And which phone 12mp or 48mp has more number of ROMs ‽
Hello Guys,
i have the Problem that no App can make Pictures with 48MP Resolution.
I had to wait for 196 hours until the Mi-tool has unlocked my Fon. It is an insolence from xiaomi imposing such a compulsory break to the customer. Some of the older Redmi Customers must wait 1440 hours, i had read. But i say nothing, the Price for the Hardware i bought is good
So i tested the Fon for 196 hours and the Pictures i made with 48MP they were very good an big (14-18 MB/jpg File).
Since i installed TWRP 3.2.x.x and Ressurretion (RR 7.0.2 from 29th Aug.) since then i can make Pictures with maximum 12 MP (3000 x 4000, 5-7 MB/jpg File). There is no way to make higher Resolution. It doesn´t matter witch Cam App i use.
I have not found any Kind of fix or People that has the same Problem.
I am not sure if i have installed the right OS. I installed RR-P-v7.0.2-20190829-lavender-Official because i had read that lavender is the right Software for Snapdragon 660 and Adreno 512 GPU.
violet is not the right one, isn´t it?
Questions over questions..............i hope you can help me.
Sorry for my bad english !
Best regards from Germany
48mpx photos can only be captured with MIUI Camera which is available only on MIUI rom. For custom roms there is Miui camera port called ANX camera 48mpx works but pictures arent as good.
Thank you for you´re help. Now i am Happy

Who has tell you this? It isn´t the Truth.
The Pictures with 48MP (8000 x 6000) look very good. I can´t show you Pics because i can´t Post attachements and i can´t post external Pic-Links.
The Pictures has a Size over 10 MB, and on the PC they look really good!
The Files i installed with TWRP are:
- ANXCameraMagisk_94.ComfortableMulticoloredNoctule.zip
- ANXCamera94_48MpFixed.zip (this Thread is helping you)
After the installation you have the App "ANXCamera", start it and be happy
Redmi Note 7 doesn't have a real 48MP sensor. It's 12MP (primary sensor). That's why third-party apps only offers you 12Mp as the max resolution.
The camera software (Stock ROM) applies a binning effect (technology), combining 4 pixels into 1 (big). Then, the software resizes the image to generate an equivalent image as 48MP (size), from a 12MP.
If you take a look at the specifications of the CPU (SoC) the device uses, it doesn't allow cameras with higher resolution than 25Mp. So, Xiaomi, and other brands too, needed to use this technology to allow the device to generate "virtual" 48MP images.
If you want to take good photos, I would recommend you to go for cameras (not compact if possible), not smartphones. As their sensors are much bigger, so better quality and light they can capture. Sorry.

That is not real. Indian RN7 has 12mp Sony sensor but chinese Redmi Note 7 has Samsung GM1 48mp Isocell, so there are 48 million physical pixels BUT in Quad Bayer arrangement (4 pixels are in the same red, green and blue filter), technically you can shoot 48MP photos in stock camera and YES, the soc (SDM660) allow 48mp photos in normal mode, not in ZSL (Zero Shutter Lag), photos in 48mp looks sharper in bright conditions (i tested that) and contains high noise levels on low light, anyway that 48mp are not the same as a 48mp regular bayer filter.
I hope this helps, i could be wrong. You can find [Samsung GM1 48MP] and [SDM660] specs on google.
