Xiaomi Redmi 5 Review: Camera
The main camera on this smartphone is a 12-megapixel sensor with a single LED flash. The camera supports PDAF, F/2.2 aperture along with age and gender detection. Since it a 12-megapixel sensor, the resolution is kept at 3000×4000 pixels, and record video up to Full-HD resolution.
The camera app is a customized Xiaomi camera which retains almost similar functionalities with standard Android camera apps, but with different interface.
The camera comes with multiple features such Panoramic mode, HDR and Beauty effects pre-loaded. You can take burst shot by pressing and holding the volume button, and the device can still allow you to capture images simultaneously while shooting a video.
As for the camera quality, well, you’ll get a bit more than what you pay for. Yeah, you’ll surely get great camera output so long as you stay away from low light shots.
That doesn’t mean that low light shots are totally miserable, but I’ll prefer sticking with full daylight shots. And to buttress my point, check out the images below.
