Stock Camera vs Gcam
Nowadays many companies adding multiple cameras to their phones for better quality just like poco, but coming to Google’s Pixel phone, it just has a single camera and is the king of kings when it comes to smartphone photography.
Poco M2 Pro Stock cam: It’s not bad or best, but there are some problems like Images are over-saturated, and the 960fps slo-mo, it’s not at all smooth.
Gcam – Poco M2 Pro: Google camera gives better color and images are far better than the stock cam.
Which is better? For capturing images go with Gcam, and video and slo-mo go with the stock camera. In upcoming days new Gcam mods will be released with better optimization.
How to Install Gcam on Poco M2 Pro
