In these last days we have heard a lot about Night Mode, that is the function of Xiaomi dedicated to night shots, that like other manufacturers takes back what is offered by the Google software on their Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL. This function will be present on Mi 8 and Mi Mix 2s, but also Mi 8 Pro and Mi 8 Explorer Edition, devices that should all also receive the support for slow motion at 960 fps.
But if these are features dedicated to the aforementioned terminals, for all the other Xiaomi brand users, the company could soon release a huge gift, which would lead to a much appreciated functionality in the modding field. We speak of course of the Google Camera (GCam), that on many terminals has given new life (at least under the photographic aspect).
The new MIUI 10 introduces support for the Google Camera without having to resort to root
Until now, however, it was necessary to resort to modding operations, such as granting i root permissions to enable support HAL3 (camera2API) and then proceed to install theAPK mod of the GCam. Operations for many complex, but that today could remain a distant memory as the latest rumors from China reveal to us that the new closed beta of MIUI 10 (11.8 developer version) will be officially provided with HAL3 support by default. A sensational news that shows once again how the company is attentive to the needs of its users.
After all, why should we take the chance to exploit third-party APKs that enhance even more the photographic skills of a Xiaomi smartphone? Many buy the brand's devices for this reason, that is moddarlo at will, such as installing the GCam HDR +. I am therefore curious to know from you which Xiaomi smartphone you own and what changes you have made, to maximize performance, and then in the case of GCam I invite you to post your best shots, perhaps also attaching the settings you have used.
Beim redmi note 7 geht's tip top! Macht tolle Photos!

Hi emmanuelle!
I have the redmi note 4 sd global rom. It has already taken the latest miui update 10. Can I download the gcam directly from the playstore and use it? Or do I have to make changes?
Thank you!
