[NEW] Xiaomi GoPro!! - Mi 3 General

Hi everybody!
This is my first post here in xda, so lets get started!
Xiaomi has anounced that they are working on a new action camera, like the gopro, which will record at 4k in 30fps, and 1080p in 120fps!!!! The sources estimate the price about 130€.
I'm so excited because this christmas I've thought to buy the new GoPro Entry Level, but with this Mi Camera... And this specs... I think I'll change the present [emoji23] [emoji23]

Blackview DV800B is better than xiao mi action camera
Hi, somethings you said about xiaomi action camera are wrong:
1. xiao mi action camera not a 4K camera,it is 1080p camera,
gopro is 4k camera > blackview DV800B 2.7k camera > xiao mi 1080P camera.
2. 1080P/120fps? no xiaomi max resolution is: 1080P/60fpx
you can get more details about blackview dv800b and xiaomi official website.

Sorry man, but my info was wroten more than 4 months ago, so was only rumors as we knew. A few weeks ago the yi camera was released, so now you can compare both info, the good ones with the rumors.

I am not much into xiaomi yi cam. Its housing material is plastic, and it feels like cheap plastic.
Here is a detail review on xiaomi Camera and the Specs and Features for Xiaomi cam and Gopro.

General camera quality?

Hi,
I would like to buy this phone. The camera quality is on the 1. place for me.
I have read many review but everybody is talking differently...
I currently own Gionee E7 with great 16MP OmniVision shooter and I am
really afraid to swap it...
So is that 21mp camera good or not comparing to etc. Samsug galaxy s6??
Could someone upload unedited photos somewhere?
How camera quality is related to ROM updates?
Thanks!
There's camera samples everywhere, the sony imx 230 is very good at daylight, but for low light it is very under saturated! Also pretty noisy.
I reccomend to buy LeMax2 if you aim to buy a powerful device at a relative low price.
Otherwise, if camera is your number one reason to buy a phone, you should skip this.
It has a good camera, and sometimes you can take really good shots with enough lighting, but comparison with Galaxy S6 and others top-of-the-line smartphones is unfair.
Moreover, ROM developers are struggling to get full functionality with the camera, unless they aren't original based ROMs, so you are limited to EUI as of now.
And to add something, LeMax2 sensor camera is the same as these devices:
LeTV One Max X900
Meizu PRO 6, PRO 5
Honor 7
Elephone Vowney, M3
Lenovo Vibe X3
Sony Xperia Z5, Z3+, M5
Motorola Moto X Force, Moto X Play, Moto X Style, Droid Turbo 2
Thank you Star_dust6 for great answer!
It seems I will skip this device because of camera...

You're welcome.
As for smartphones with a really good camera, you should aim for something like LG G5: is a little bit expensive (350 €), but worth every penny.

LG g2 camera vs Xiaomi redmi 4 one

I am thinking to get a budget phone like Xiaomi redmi 4, or 4x or Lenovo P2. However I am not sure how is the camera quality in these phones against our g2.
Any feedback please?

go to gsmarena, put all 3 devices in compare and see the differences...
many if the newer devices have better camera than lg g2...
yesterday, my wife bought a Huawei Honor 7 Lite (or 5C) and it beats my old lg g2 camera by a mile... mainly because a much better sensor and lower\brighter f-stop lens (f2.0)...
and the price of that new Huawei was around 210$ (carrier free)... sure, it can be found even cheaper on the internet...
The camera of the G2 is much better than the camera found on the redmi note 3 pro. I guess that the camera on the other budget Xiaomi phones ain't gonna be special, either. In daylight you can't see much of a difference between the G2 and the Xiaomis, but in low light the G2 performs much better. To sum this up, you don't buy Xiaomis for their cameras. You won't be so disappointed but you won't be amazed either. You should think of other criteria before buying a new phone.
Hit thanks if I helped!

Well, a xiaomi ticks all my requirements, minus the camera performance. I think that camera has become so advanced in new phones that is difficult to neglect it.
Which phone under 300 usd has the best camera today?

https://www.kimovil.com/en/compare-smartphones/name.Mi5s (choose the one that meets your needs)
Take a look at the mi5s. It's in your budget if you buy it from China and it's probably one of the best Xiaomis out there. When it came out it had some problems with the fingerprint sensor performance, though. I don't know if it has been fixed. The Lenovo zuk z2 (pro) is also a good option.

Nubia ui

Is it possible to port Nubia UI to our 4x SD? My wife has the Nubia z17 mini and the camera app is great and image processing is unbelievable! Can we port the whole room or at least the camera app?

Why didn't you bought a Nubia phone in the first place?
Of course, nubia z17 mini have much better camera processing , i mean look at the price.. Its pricier
Oh and Porting Nubia UI? Nope, not gonna happen
Try finding a ported camera app of Nubia instead.
@GabrielScott Well I don't buy a phone for features I buy a phone for community support since I'm a flashaholic and if I had OnePlus Money I would of bought but I'm really really happy with my 4x and the camera is not the best but it gets the job done even though I had the s7 edge before my 4x the screen broke on it and it costs $280 to fix so I got a new phone $100 less than the price of 1 fragile screen
Well yea if it's possible to port the cam app that would be awesome

Switching Galaxy S8 to Xiaomi Mi 8. Worth it?

Hi buddies!
My 3 last smartphones were Samsung ones (A5/2016, Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S8) and now I'm thinking of trying something different.
I have nothing to complain about my Galaxy S8, but let's say that I'm tired of it.
I use the smartphone mainly for for social media and taking pictures, so, the camera is the more important feature for me.
Thinking of a new smartphone, I have Xiaomi Mi 8 and OnePlus 6T in mind.
I had in my hands the Mi A1 and Mi A2, but never used one with MIUI.
How about the screen quality? Will I notice too much difference switching back from 1440p to 1080p?
Is Mi 8 camera better than Galaxy S8's?
What you guys have to say about this deal?
No, you won't notice the difference between 1440 and 1080. Screen is excellent but s8 screen is a little brighter. Nevertheless xiaomi developer team is really really slooooow don't expect to be up to date with Android releases. I mean I am running 8.1 on mi8 (flagship) while the S7 is already on Pie.

Xiaomi updates every week ONLY Beta Builds. S7 has PI look it up I can show you some picture later. Please stop confusing people glorifying xiaomi dev team.

Most of Xiaomi users even don't know what is MIUI Beta/Weekly and the Global Stable ROM is very slow to update.
I had the S8 and made the change to Mi 8.
At first, running the Global stable rom, i was kinda let down. Hdr didn't work, camera was not good and headphone audio volume was low.
Then i installed the Global beta rom (based on pie). All the above problems were fixed, the camera if you want to install the bsg Gcam is Amazing. Stock is good too but Gcam is miles ahead. The norch support is improved, you can now get notifications on status bar.
The mi 8 is snappier ( touchwiz is laggy).Battery on this thing is really good (geting 7h SOT on miui). The Mi 8's screen is a downgrade but not as big as i first thought. I played many videos side by side and could notice "blacker" blacks on the S8.
My opinion is to go with mi 8 if you want to install a custom rom, to make it pixel-like or AOSP in general.
Imho even a Redmi note 6 pro would be a massive upgrade from any Samsung device.
Can't stand their roms and bloatware. Great hardware but awful software.

S7 has Pie only on custom Roms! Mostly on crappy AOSP Rom's where the battery life and camera quality is really bad.
Mi 8 and also Poco has Pie on official Beta from vendor. Even the S9 didn't have a official beta from Vendor with Pie (as far i know, but don't keep an eye on S9 dev).
Please keep the facts! Has nothing to do with glorifying someone.

No. You are confusing them. S7 has no official OTA pie update. S9 does not have stabel OTA pie. Infact, both Xiaomi and Samsung are really slow.

In principle, I advise you against it,
I have Mi8 it is very good phone at an excellent price, I moved from Galaxy Note 4
Mi8 battery life is great, usually I get +7 hours of SOT, and sometimes I reach 48 hours of use on one charge.
display is great, colors and brightness
I don't play games on it but the performance is smooth in general
the design and dimensions are very good also
the finger print sensor is fast , convenient and well placed.
charging is faster than Samsung's
I have used Samsung's software for years and I like, but you can easily get used to MIUI.
the stock camera software is not that good, but you can use a Gcam port like I do.
I have one complain about the Mi8 which is the speaker loudness, it is nearly inaudible if compared to my previous Note 4.
if you "need" a new phone immediately it will be a very good choice at a budget.
If you are looking for an upgrade from the S8, I think you Mi 8 is not a suitable one, neither the OP6T, especially with that in-display slow andn insecure finger print sensor.
I explained my reasons here - https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/how-to/love-mi-8-t3876024.

You will notice the difference in sound quality if you have an In-ear monitor (IEM) like KZ ZSN.
but price wise, and performance yeah I will definitely choose Mi8. will just need to unlock and tweak the audio. cheers
I've done it myself and I can say that I love the MI8 for its overall performance and MIUI10 which is to me so far the best Android experience. I do miss some stuff tough like the wireless charging and IP68 certification which was really nice to have. But I don't regret my purchase.

Question The camera on Mi 11i

What are your thoughts regarding the main rear camera on this phone? I assumed that it was worse than the camera on Mi 11 and Mi 10T Pro since the sensor is smaller in size and lacks OIS. However this youtuber claim that camera performance on 11i actually is better than on Mi 11. In the comparison below with Mi 11 Pro the difference was also smaller than I expected.
I have Mi 11i now. My first impression is that the camera is disappointing. Will probably send it back. Mi 10 and Mi 11 takes more detailed stills. But have to do some more testing.

Hi guys, regarding the main Mi11i 108MP camera, I'm curently strugling to find out a camera replacement, does anyone has an idea what model to use ? Any OEM reference ?
I have the Mi11i and the camera is great, what are u talking about? This is a budget phone, do u expect iphone 12 pro or S21+U quality?
The camera is better than these devices ive tested: S9+, OP7 Pro, A32 5G, OP 8T, OP Nord 2, Iphone 8, SE, X
Do you use the 108 mode and fiddle with settings? Or do u just use nomal mode and tap and take the photo? Thats not how u take a good photo, thats only for iphone (dumbed down os).
I find the camera fine as long as you do a little editing. Low light and night shots are a little iffy but you can still take great shots as long as you edit the photos. Photos in day light are fine. My old phone was an XS Max and the camera scores better than that in testing. Again edit the photos.
Pictures are almost the same as my mi 10. All ok.

I'm using mi 11i for 2 months and the camera quality is not good, autofocus is struggling in low light.
ofcourse it has no OIS so it ramps up ISO thus useless in low light
I have both Mi 11i och Xiaomi 11T in front of me. 11T takes much better low light shots compared to 11i despite having the same main camera sensor and Dimensity 1200 instead of SD888. Probably more optimized software on 11T.
Camera is good for me it takes good selfie and landscape shots. I was also thinking camera might be garbage and this phone can't be used for photography but I was wrong. It is not excellent nor garbage.
The Camera is good but the stock camera app is really bad, taking pictures with pro mode (manually) or with Gcam is astonishingly good.
but the main camera app over-sharpens and over processes the image resulting in noise.

About cameras, I'm disappointed by the 108 MP photos, as camera (digital) zoom is limited to x2, which is a shame in such a HiRes lens.
