Google Pixel 6 VS Samsung S20 FE VS Samsung S20 FE & GCam

Daylight Samples

Thoughts & Takeaways

Both of these devices do completely fine during the daytime. Samsung continues the trend of oversaturated photos and Google continues to give us an over HDR effect. For daylight photos GCam on the S20 FE does just as well as the Pixel 6 and personal preference is the deciding factor.

Lowlight Without Nightmode

Thoughts & Takeaways

Although both devices do a good job at pulling out detail in lowlight the pixel is slightly better at retaining highlight detail in most cases. GCam on the S20 FE does a completely fine job at giving users a pleasing image but it could be slightly better. I think that if GCam for the S20 FE had been developed for a longer period of time we could see improvements in noise reduction but the software isn’t perfect because its community developed and maintain. I think that for lowlight photos either the stock camera app from Samsung or the Pixel 6 will give users consistent results they are happy with.

Nightmode: Samsung Nightmode VS GCam VS Pixel 6 Nightmode

Thoughts & Takeaways

Due to the settings in the XML and tweaks within the GCam app, GCam was often returning blurry results when being handheld. Samsung’s camera app consistently nails these lowlight images and returns sharp images that people would be happy with. Pixel 6 showed weakness in highlights getting clipped and blown out while GCam would give blurry results.

I have been using the GCam bot on Telegram for over 2 years. It's how I got GCam on my Poco f1, how I got GCam on my Poco F2 and Xiaomi Mi 10. It goes without saying GCam is great and the GCam bot on Telegram makes it easy to get the best fit for your phone.  I've never thought to make a video about how I find the newest version of GCam or what is usually considered one of the most stable versions of GCam for my XiaoMi device.

Here Is How to use the GCam Finder for your Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro, Poco F2, Poco F3, Poco X3 Pro and Redmi Note 10 Pro
