What you are saying is what made us deliberately discouraged the whole Gcam talk here and have a dedicated thread for that and other tweaks. I am sure over 95% of users of Xiaomi phones on this thread don't even use Gcam, I wonder the point you are trying to make. People I have bought the Redmi note 5 for, and others are still grateful for the discovery of such wonderful device in terms of performance in battery and camera especially. Dem dey form king for the their mates grin.

The thing is, if I should bring my Redmi note 4x and snap with your Honor 8x right now, you'll feel embarrassed, that's all lipsrsealed.

Lol.. Take a chill pill boss. My bro's 8x will land soon. I'll do the comparison with my Note 4.

It's been unlocked. Them don flash many roms on it. The phone's issue never improved. I'm beginning to believe it could be a hardware issue but no one agrees with that.

This rn5 charger Tho.
It takes about 2½ hours to charge the rn5, but when I plugged it to an infinix hot note, it started fast charging.

Bro, I had to download the app to see what it's all about . It's whack !!!
When you are sure you have a premium device , you have no reason to root, flash or do whatever on your device before enjoying the full features.
IGNORANCE!!
Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by IKON360(m): 6:04pm On Nov 23, 2018
lovelani:

Well whatever it is , I won't prefer a device I have to root or flash to enjoy it's features.
you see, you didn't even activate camera2api you've jumped up to shout "wack". God have mercy on you

... and it's gcam again!

Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by Nobody: 6:31pm On Nov 23, 2018
lovelani:

My reason for not getting the brand yet , coz what's the need when I can't confidently rely on the follow come camera app. Lenovo, Huawei and the likes are using their camera without the headache of having to root their device to use Gcam . Common Tecno sef are cool with their cam .
I'm sorry but truth is , all these post about rn this and that looks like a brainwash and hype then.

Gcam people una see wetin una don cause? Smh

I have been using xiaomi for about a year and half now and I have never installed Gcam nor seen any need for it. Only heard of it few months back.

Very soon some people will ask for 3D printing and photocopying capabilities from their phone. They will not mind unlocking bootloader and rooting the phone if they think it is possible.

Your assessment is biased bro and you know that.

1, although gcam boosts the image quality of xiaomi phones, that doesn't mean the phones stock camera don't take high quality pictures. We human beings are insatiable, hence, the need for people to want to push their device to the limit once they know it can be done.

I had to go through the process of of waiting for days to unlock my xiaomi bootloader just to flash the gcam and frankly speaking, I have never used the gcam app to take pictures even though the quality of the gcam pix is higher, this is because I'm perfectly satisfied with the quality of the stock camera and see no reason to have a sharper image quality.


As for the guy who said his phone went bad after update, nobody knows the circumstances that led to the issue except him. Also it will be absurd to expect that all items made by xiaomi will never go bad or have one or 2 defect per batch of production. What we are saying here is that xiaomi phones are less problematic when compared with brands like tecno, infinix, gionee, and that's a fact.

My max 2 is the first snapdragon phone I have mainly used, and it's the first phone that has lasted over a year without visiting the repairers despite the heavy usage and several fall.
