At the club, at the bar, or just in your mom's basement, nighttime is when you come out to play. Rate this thread to express how the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4's camera performs when no or low light is present. A higher rating indicates that the camera sensor "sees" lots of light in dim conditions, and that the resulting photos have minimal noise. A higher rating also indicates that when the flash fires, the resulting photo is evenly-lit without any bright spots.

Good
Awful. Those who are saying its good are lying
It sucks in lowlight. I mean it's only good in bright sunlight, anything lower than that and this camera struggles. I don't know why Xiaomi was boasting so much about this CMOS **** or whatever on its page, the camera is just terrible.
Pretty bad but better than my old Moto G 3. Photos in daylit or any well lit place are decent though.
The camera sucked in general and too much in low light. But the camera is the one in LG G6 and you can get good output if you switch to pixel camera.The difference it makes is huge

How do you check that?
Omnivision sensors are actually quite good. Especially so with MIUI 9.
Comapred to Samsung (quick test at store):
In bright light:
Omnivision sensor captures more details than Samsung. A lot.
Samsung has richer colors. Omnivision colors are a bit faint.
In low light:
Samsung captures more details, but both are equally noisy.
MIUI 9 has improved night performance tremendously on my OV sensor. Unbelievably so. Haven’t compared to Samsung though.
I can post sample pics if anyone is interested. (OV13588)

Here's a sample low light photo with and without HDR (stock MIUI 9 camera)
Sony sensor.. great captures.. low light better than stock MIUI camera on GCam app ported by BSG
Is the Redmi Note 4 camera the same than the Mi A1???
Enviado desde mi XT1033 mediante Tapatalk
With Google Camera with AutoHDR+, low light is actually not bad at all.
Great performance with GCam port on Android 9.

Nice
I just got my MI A1 as an upgrade for my 4 years old Nexus 5 daily driver. First impressions in Daylight the MI A1 outperforms the Nexus 5, but in low light the lack of OIS and relatively small 1.25 um pixel size means the A1 struggles a lot. Even getting a sharp focus is slow comparing with my Nexus 6P which has laser autofocus.
In comparison my Nexus 5 has OIS and 1.4 um pixels, and my Nexus 6P has 1.55 um pixels.
Taking into account the cost of the MI A1 however, this phone is a tip top performer and I have no compliants for what I paid. Very happy with it.

The cameras are capable of taking excellent pictures. Unfortunately not every picture is excellent. Blurred photos are fairly common.
Hopefully a fix will come with updated software. I blame the software for the problem because a downloaded camera app is much better. Unfortunately the 2X setting doesn't work with that app.

Disclaimer: I always shoot with HDR+ on my Nexus 6P.
In good lighting the MI A1 with HDR produces results comparable to the 6P in terms of dynamic range, sharpness and saturation. However, Xiaomi's HDR processing is noticeably not as refined as Google's on the 6P. HDR photos can seem slightly exaggerated on the A1 when you compare it side by side with the same shot taken on the 6P.
This isn't noticeable if you judge the photos on their own merit, which are very respectable and will impress you on the first shot almost every time.
In short I would say that the MI A1 has inspired enough confidence for me to carry it around full time as my daily driver and main camera for weekdays and weekends, but I still bring my 6P out when going on trips/vacations for shooting video (DJI Osmo mobile + Nexus 6P).
Here's an example:
A) Taken with HDR on MI A1

Hi evryone, I am coming from the Moto G2 XT1068 which was my daily driver for 4 years and using clips lens on the camera and the picture quality was decent .. But I am amazed how the Mi A1 outperforms some of the over-priced same spec smartphones in its range.
I am sharing some of the shots taken from Mi A1 during my Nepal trip.
Disappointed, really,i came from mi5 to mi a1.i thought it'll be better since it has dual camera,new software,new features they claiming has better camera compared to oneplus 5 even iPhone 7,but still waaay better on mi5 even with lineage os which is known as downgrading the camera quality.
Front facing camera is the worst part,ironically i sell my mi5 to get this phone,damn!

Yea, no. Those aren't photos taken on your Mi A1. A simple reverse-image search shows you ripped it off 500px - "Portrait of a Sadhu by Ashraful Arefin". I'm not allowed to post links but you can find it with a google search.
The photos were taken on a DSLR, over a year ago.
Just why?
This is actual footage of portrait mode but when taking photos instantly its quite often resulting blurry pictures
Another portrait mode,quite impressive but you need to hold the phone really steady
Blurry pictures when taking picture on moving object
Outdoor shots are pretty good and HDR does a good job without making the pictures look "cartoonish" which is sometimes the case. Once you take it indoors there's a rapid drop-off in quality, I find. Going out to dinner tonight and will try to make some shots in the restaurant to test.
Turning on portrait mode seems to zoom in on the object automatically, which is a bit strange. Anyone else have this?
Manual mode is a bit disappointing as the maximum exposure time is 1/60 second, which means if you want a usable low-light shot you still need to bump up the ISO quite a bit. Hope they can fix this in an update.

Just tried latest HTC camera from apkmirror (Sept. 28 version) and it shoots MUCH better pictures! Indoors pictures and selfies are MUCH sharper. You get nice depth-of-field shots even without portrait mode and it nicely focuses on items the Mi camera had trouble focusing on.
Camera works fully without root, just install the apk. I highly recommend you give this a try!

I would say selfies are pretty average.
selfie with MiA1 using the front camera with xiaomi camera app is mediocre if I may say.. it's far from acceptable in my opinion...
but, if you use GCam HDR+ at the Portrait Mode that's another level to talk about, the details the vibrant colors the sharpness (especially in low light situation) it's the best for a modest 5 MP camera

If you are ugly, yeah selfies will be crap.
Well, the point is that is a big abyss between Xiaomi Camera and Google Camera. It's impossible to say that the two pictures came from same sensors and lenses.

Surely Google Camera is doing an hard post-production to images, but the quality of the picture is true impressive.

Stock Cam is average in daylight and potato in low light. But with google camera its another level for 5Mp shooter. Google Camera is recommended for selfie lovers.
Google Camera takes you to a whole new level. Xiaomi stock cam is too fake. ?
Stock camera is horrible when taking selfie's. Use Gcam instead.
Can anyone suggest me how to get Gcam for my Mi A1?

I'll be honest, it's pretty bad, frequently off focus, poor low light, lack of stabilization, but maybe fine for the price range I guess
Redmi Note 5 is probably the better choice for photo quality
Nonetheless, I think updates might help. At least I hope

In daylight conditions pictures turns out good with good focus , saturation levels etc. But color reproduction needs work and in low light conditions noise is quite apparent. Portrait is like 7/10. Selfies turn out good after the recent update, 8.5/10.
P.S. For stabilized videos I use nokia camera app and its upto the mark .
Low-light picture quality is abominable. Zoom tears images, there is a lot of noise. Images in daylight are pretty decent. For this price range, the camera quality is justifiable (I suppose). I have a Moto G4 Plus and it takes amazing photos compared to this device. If you remove the portrait mode, Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 has nothing over the Moto G4 Plus camera.
Hope to see changes in future updates.
Yes, pretty disappointed with the camera performance. I should have got the RN5 instead but since I already got this, I'll stick with it as taking pictures is not the main thing for me on this phone. Still, the quality is far off from the various paid reviews.

I installed Google camera after enabling api through fastboot but not much big effect is seen from Snapdragon camera
For example I did portrait mode on Google camera but it takes much time than Snapdragon camera and also showing images of low resolution and small megapixel (my camera support 16 MP but it showed images from 8 MP and allow motion is not working and hdr+enhanced is allowed but not working, the camera got stuck every time it is turned on
Okay at well lit conditions, not good at low light
During daylight, the rear camera photos are good.
But the phone doesn't focus properly on close objects.
The low light camera is bad. A lot of noise, less light detection, slow focus,etc.
The video quality (1080p) during day is good. But the device takes time to focus during a video recording.

The camera (software) of the Mi A2 is once again a disappointment, Xiaomi still isn't even close to the competition.
Here's a medium/low light composition (100% crop) taken with my old Redmi Note 3 Pro (Samsung Sensor) and the Mi A2.
I've taken more samples with the A2, hoping for better sharpness and contrast and selected the best ones - but only that single image on the Redmi Note 3 Pro.
The Redmi Note 3 (as well as the Note 4X and Mi A1 with Google HDR+ Camera) easily outperform the Mi A2 in a few hundred shots I've taken so far in all situations, except for:
- Daylight action shots (still close but in most situations the shorter aperture helps)
- Extremely low light (the Redmi Note 3 still has the edge on sharpness and focus accuracy, but the A2 wins with a bit less noise and better contrast / dynamic range)

That sounds like my experience as well. I'm currently comparing this phone (for my dad) against my Nexus 5X, and straight out of the box images even with HDR just can't be compared.
However, I specifically bought this device for the price point + androidOne combo. With the google camera port and camera2api enabled, this is just about on-par with the Nexus 5X. I'd almost consider getting this for myself!
I noticed in your Redmi sample, you had used a google cam port. Try a google cam port on the A2, it's quite the improvement. I'll have opportunity to post some samples in the next few days, since I just got the A2 yesterday
Photo samples below:
Mi A2 Test Photos [Google Camera Port]
Particular characteristics noticed:
- autofocus isn't always on-point if you just shoot from the hip (aka double-tap power, then immediately single tap volume button); for best results you should wait like a second to lock focus
- some google camera ports allow you to tweak highlight and shadow saturation; explore around!
- colours aren't 100% accurate, but could just be a simple white-balance adjustment in snapseed, etc.

Maby you are on "low quality" mode.
Go to the camera settings and select the "high quality" option.
Both cameras have its own settings, so if you want to change the resolution of the frontal camera, you are gonna have to swipe to that camera and then acces to the settings.
I hope it works

Why is the potrait mode resolution on my mi a2 is 16mp and 20mp....i thought the camera resolution is 12mp on the primary camera
Why there is so much difference between mia1 portrait and mia2 portrait ? i like mi a1 blur co'z they look close to natural like dslr blur and a2 blur seems to artificial why?
Some amazing shots with the stock cam:

Honest review: I agree with @Benjamin_L
My previous phone was Redmi 3S. With Google Camera it produced more sharper images than Mi A2 with Google Camera. It looks like there's some kind of pixel binning thing happening even with the primary sensor. Edges are not crisp/sharp. Dynamic range is good though with GCam ports in every phone it no longer matters.
Only place where it wins from other phones is its low light performance due to the aperture. Otherwise the camera is not really that great, as speculated in every blog. Sure, in stock camera comparisons with other phones, Mi A2 is the better one. However once we move to GCam, other phones are at par with Mi A2, in fact better, in Daylight.
