Poco X2 is the second instalment under the Poco brand after the successful release of Poco F1. As before, Poco X2 gives flagship-level specs in the budget, this time, Poco traded off a flagship chipset with 120 Hz screen. However, that does not change Poco X2 from being a powerful smartphone as Snapdragon 730G is a very capable chip. However, today, we are talking about GCam for Poco X2. GCam or Google Camera is found in Pixel devices and known for its industry-leading Image processing Algorithms.
Thanks to the developers, GCam is ported and available as an APK to install in any Android device, provided that, camera2api is enabled in that Android device. GCam uses the camera2api to get better control over the smartphone’s camera sensor and then apply its amazing Image processing algorithms to produce Sharp, detailed Images with Good dynamic range. Night sight, a feature introduced in Google camera v7, capture great photos in low light and hence, improve any Android’s device low light performance by a big margin.
Poco X2, which houses a Quad-camera setup on the back is a very good shooter itself, but adding the goodness of GCam will further enhance it. In this post, you can download the best working GCam apk for Poco X2 along with the installation Guide if you are still on Stock ROM or MIUI.
Why use GCam?
HDR+ | Great Dynamic range
Google’s HDR+ is based on Image fusion technology which takes different images and then merges it into a single but more detailed image. It improves dynamic range and also give better low light shots.
Portrait Mode
Portrait mode is now fairly common in every smartphone, but GCam clearly got the upper hand in Edge detection and natural blur.
Night Sight
The night is different than HDR+ in many ways. HDR+ gives better dynamic range, on the other hand, Night Sight gives better low light shots by lighting them up and removing noise. So far, Night Sight is the most powerful ability of GCam and is far better than Mi’s Camera.
