Realme 5 Pro GCam Port – Google Camera v9.2 Download


Realme 5 Pro GCam port is now available to download for the phone. This is a midrange phone which runs on a Snapdragon 712 chipset.

It comes with a quad camera setup with a 48MP wide camera sensor, 8MP ultrawide sensor, 2MP macro and a 2MP depth sensor. Of course Realme’s stock camera produces decent photos but still the GCam port on Realme 5 Pro captures somewhat better photos in portrait mode, Night Sight mode etc.

Realme Stock Camera vs GCam port on Realme 5 Pro

Realme’s default camera that comes on the phone and the Google Camera (GCam) port has significant differences to consider which one to use and where! To be able to take a wise decision on different situations, I will list down all the similarities and/or differences between these two camera apps.

Let’s have a look at the below detailed section so that you can understand things in a better way.

What’s better on the Realme camera?

Well, the default camera app that comes on the phone is equally good and provides several features that the GCam does not have.

Let’s have a look at the below features that is available on Realme 5 Pro’s default Camera:

  • Pro mode on the the stock Realme camera app is available for photo and Night mode but not available for video.
    • This provides common controls such as Shutter speed, ISO control etc. but not like the way the TRUE pro level features that comes on MIUI camera.
  • Ultra Res photo mode (only on supported phones)
  • Allows to capture in highest resolution each sensor supports such as 50MP
  • Better compatibility with all camera sensors
  • Macro mode allows to capture close-up photos
  • The filter mode allows to apply filters so that you can create artificial good looking images
  • Some supported models has the RAW capture similar to GCam port

Advantages of using Google camera / GCam on Realme 5 Pro

People know the GCam app from couple of years since when it had the HDR+. And then the camera app has evolved significantly.

Below are some of the extra features that you can expect to enhance your existing camera setup on the Realme 5 Pro:

  • With Night Sight mode you get better exposed low light images from the camera.
  • Astrophotography mode used to capture the sky and celestial bodies in the dark. Not for everyone, but worth mentioning in this features list.
  • Multi-mode video stabilization
  • HDR+ brings much images in a condition where you have much brighter or darker regions in the scene.
  • DSLR like bokeh effect on the portrait mode.
  • RAW image capture so that it can be edited in the post
  • GCam in most cases captures natural looking pictures

  • Finding the right gcam port for Realme 5 Pro is neither a straight forward task nor easy
  • Not all compatible mods available are specifically tuned for the Realme 5 Pro. It is possible that some or other features of GCam might be working might not be working as intended.
  • The stock Realme camera app has a pro mode for photo as well as Night mode which does not exist on Google Camera mod.
