Really impressive low light performance as expected.
Night mode portrait shots are unreal. I have been comparing to my wife's pixel 4 and the difference really is night and day

That's interesting that the night mode has better results on the Pixel 5 compared to the Pixel 4. The camera hardware and software are both exactly the same.

You see any problem in display like hitting in outdoors if you use only few minutes

Low light photos taken with the wide lens are horrendous, once the ISO creeps up they are quickly become unusable with terrible noise towards the corners.
Of course you can use night sight and then you don't have a lowlight photo any more.

This is actually really nice.
Sent from my Honor 8 using XDA Labs
could have been better
Not comparable to honor 8 or iphone 7 but certainly a bwtrer one in this price.
Noisy in dark
But with flash on it takes decent macro shots
But in this price point every phone suffers
I have trued moto Xiaomi and Asus and i can say low light performance is comparable to most of the competition
I never take pictures in low light so I won't care,
low light performance is not that great.but acceptable
Below average low light.
Pretty decent low light performance for a budget phone.

Too much noise in low light.
My one X9 feels better.
Sadly I have to agree, low light pics do look more grainy than my old Nexus 6P

Is normal to have noise at night, but comparing the shots with my Pixel 2 XL, this U11+ is superior in most of the situations, and I can only imagine about the aperture difference to explain this.
there you go

download and have fun with night shots
Did some lowlight tripod mounted shots recently and found the U11+ to be OK though exposures longer 2secs seems to increase the noise quite a lot even at ISO 100.
Some samples here, both are a single shots and not composites.

Ah well it may not be officially out but it's out and it's great. It's much much better than any cell phone I have ever seen and it also beats out some dslr cameras as well. With that said I'm uncertain about the nature of night site, is it really doing some ai stuff or is it just long exposures with some white balance tweaks.

Outdoors I actually just use the normal camera if there is some artificial lighting, the pictures look very authentic with minimal noise.

There is no way I can keep the camera steady for 5 seconds without using a stand and that also brings up the "movement" issue, not everything is dead in the water.
Extreme low light (just natural light from a curtained window). Can anyone associate each image to the correct camera app? All I'll say is that the last pic has the most accurate colors for Celebi.
I used gcam 6.1, 6.2, and stock cam with my own configs (for gcam ports). Edit: 2 pics are rotated, but they're upright in gallery :silly:. Added hint.
I went to a dark museum is Niagara Fall and was really impressed with low light

			
				
Okay something changed. Don't if it was an update or maybe something changed after root and changing kernels but before I would have have quality 3 starts but now it seems 4.5 at least as far as picture and video.

Pretty nice. There is nothing more to expect from midrange phone.
It looks good. I wonder how camera compares to my galaxy s7. It would be lovely to have side by side comparison with day and night shots.
