Google Camera Huawei P40 –

Huawei managed to do great research and development in image processing for their flagship camera-centric smartphones. Previous Huawei flagship devices have offered a great hybrid zoom. Well, unlike DSLR, modern smartphones rely on hardware as well as smart image processing software for features like hybrid zoom.

Well, Huawei might have beaten Google in the hybrid zoom feature, but if we talk about the usability of zoom, we would say that no one will be using features like 100x zoom in their daily life. Whereas, Google Camera’s features like Night Mode, smart dual exposure, video stability, make more sense.

Gcam is much better than the Huawei camera app and proved that the features provided by it make more sense for casual as well as hardcore users. But, the sad part is, none of the camera apps can be used on any other Android smartphone.

Google Camera is not available officially for other Android smartphones, but the developers out there have found several ways to port the best features of Google Camera to the modded app. These modded apps can be used on any Android device to experience the fantastic Google Camera.

Huawei P40 Camera –

The all-new Huawei P40 features a really interesting camera system. The vertical camera module carries a 50MP primary camera, a 16MP wide-angle camera, and finally an 8MP telephoto lens. No gimmicky macro lens, which is one of the least used lenses in a smartphone.

The front camera of the Huawei P40 is an interesting one too. The dual-camera setup sits inside the horizontal pill cut on the left side of the display. The module carries a 32MP + Infrared camera system for front selfies and video calls.
