camera just need great software with good Image processing

Mate 8 camera is good enough for me

Just got my phone delivered yesterday and with the few pics I've tested so far, it reminded me how hyper-critical reviews can be from the "experts." The reviews have a tendancy to knock down otherwise amazing devices, just because of the reviewer's own personal feel for what a camera "should" be or do, and/or the user interface that might not be what people are used to. Without even having really set up my phone completely yet (save for Contacts and Calendar sync), I absolutely love this phone and the pics I've taken have been great. The image stabilization on this thing is ridiculously good, which is great for someone like me, who doesn't necessarily have the steadiest hands.

I've been slowly getting to set it up, so it is ready to go when I activate the prepaid T-mobile SIM, but I will try to post some shots this weekend. I am not the best photographer though. One thing I can say that is being underrated is the OIS. For someone like me, who doesn't have the steadiest hands, it is great for point and shoot.

I´d say the overall quality of mate 8 is great! I took these on Firmware C900B133 (NXT-AL10 >> L29) in "normal" mode without effects or editing, only shrinked to half size
Frosty Seaside
Morning Grow
With electric or emitted light, the pictures are abit more noisy, but im happy even with low-light scenarios.

Wow! These photos are great !

Can someone replicate / take a picture of the moon as show below?
took that one with the LG G4 manual mode.

Take a look at the night scene on GSMArena. Camera from Mate 8 is one of the best for very fine details, colour rendition, image processing (without halos, sharpening artifacts, smudging etc). Compare it with the best cameras (Samsung Galaxy s6 edge plus, LG G4 etc) and you'll see. I was very impressed and surprised, too. Sorry, I can't post examples /screenshots. Have a nice day !

The camera is great i have also Nexus 6p and i dont See any difference.

I took this pic last night. No flash, just street/ambient lights and auto focus on camera.

i dont like the camera peroformance .my old p8max had better camera
focus not great with night shots with mate 8 and all photosdeailes not good like my note 5
note 5 cam is way better
but mate 8 is more powerfull and way faster

The camera on the Mate 8 is good. It's about on par with my Nexus 6. It's great outdoors and good in most low light situations. The front camera on the Mate 8 is probably one of the best though. Here's a pic of me and the wife taken with the front camera in a restaurant with very dim lighting.

I feel same difference. Note 5 has superior camera. I am thinking to sell Mate 8 and go back to Note 5. Nexus 6p has better photos too especially macro.

LOL the note 5 camera is a little better but it shouldn't make or break your decision to stick with the Mate 8. I mean, maybe I should sell my Mate 8 as well because it's nowhere near as good as my DSLR.

Besed in the reviews it looks great for the price tag

I must say just average quality, and no low light performance.

Exactly! I think the reason being that having a dual camera setup allows for more depth and image information for post processing to generate a better low light picture.

do you have the phone? used it to take pictures by night? I did and I say that the results are not exceptional. Nothing similar to flagship's pictures, no s7 quality. just budget phone camera quality. you must lie really still to avoid problems.

some sample shots would be really nice..

With and without second bokeh camera effect

Yeah, reviews does point it out

here is a low light picture, you can see the noise on dark colours.

capture extreme
it is very spectacular camera, the dual camera works brilliantly as promised. Need to work up on the low light condition

I maybe too late for the reply but why do you expect s7 quality? You can buy 2-3 S7s(depending on price in your country) with that price

no I don't expect s7 quality, and my other android is a oneplus 3t, but if a product is advertised as good, it must be good. From my experience the honour 6x dual camera doesn't help low light image quality.

Photo quality is not the best. I think it's the same camera quality as the Mate 10 pro.
Hope there will be a gcam port!

would you cut the crap? are you on a mission to comment on every post here with the "my rating is 2" bs? are you even an A50 owner? if not the stfu - if yes, then post proof

Got the 6-64 blue today. Soon will post ?. Hopefully it gets dev support soon.

Photo quality is fine. I like the two camera option in the app.

I don't have a problem with photo quality. Its best for the price and Samsung branding. But the important question is HOW TO DISANLE CAMERA SHUTTER SOUNDS?

Photo quality is poor ,lack of detailing ,sharpness and colour.But you cant compare with iphone7.This is so ridiculous.

Does anyone have gcam link for Samsung A50

I am just not convinced with the picture quality. My 13 MP camera on previous zenfone 2 was much better in terms of sharpness and detailing. In low light its just worse. I will share sample pics clicked with the phone . Hope this will be resolved with OTA updates.

you what? Really you're comparing a flag ship dual camera with a50?

Yes, the quality is really bad and I hope this will improve with a future update.

The low light sample is just garbage in quality rest is fine

Yeah, quality is very cheap for the sensor the phone has....
Before this phone i had a Xiaomi Mi A1, with Gcam , the quality was much better... Notice the Mi A1 is a 2 years old phone...
I'm not satisfy.

Yea, couldn't agree more with the quality of this camera. Way too soft even tho the object is just in front of you. Lack of detail compared to Redmi Note 7 stock cam which I had before. I just hope that this gets resolved with OTA.
Still waiting for also for the GCAM of this device. It'll be awesome.

Its not too bad for the price. Quality comparable to my LG G5. If you feel that the photo quality is bad, give Google Camera mods a try.

Can you please upload original photos you have taken using RN8? Thank you!

same camera as note 7, use Gcam and rule the world

Mine took some good pics but it's way too early to say anything because I have this phone for like (only) 1 day.

Picture taken with Gcam

I've got some good decent photo in daylight, also in low light in close range

Photos are clearly better than iPhone 8 and Samsung note 8 due to huge sensor. Low light is also good. Video quality also alright but not as good as iPhone anyway due to lack of optical stabilization. The lens aperture at f/1.9 is restricting this phone a bit at night time shooting sometimes but Using latest GCam by wyroczen, pics can be stunning.

Very bad photo quality even with gcam (heavy wrong color). Don't buy this phone if you focus on camera quality

it has nice quality overall, it's obvious you have to use gcam, xiaomi's photo app sucks. Overall good looking pictures

Yes of course , I bought a mi a3 and I ain't know that it is based on pure Android so I sold it because I am mad of MIUI , then I bought a RN8 4,64 , but I unfortunately it was stolen after about 15 days , at last I bought RN8 PRO about 3 weeks ago ، so I have tested all of these 3 devices and my idea is RN8 PRO is the best , and it is better than Samsung A series (all models)
