Realme Stock Camera vs GCam port on Realme C55

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 C55’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 C55

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 C55:

  • 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 thia 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

Disadvantages of GCam

  • Finding the right gcam port for Realme C55 is neither a straight forward task nor easy
  • Not all compatible mods available are specifically tuned for the Realme C55. 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.
  • Sometimes not all cameras are available to use.
  • May require advanced settings to use the high resolution mode on the primary camera.

Conclusion

Of course GCam is good but that does not mean the Realme’s camera app is bad. The GCam provides better image quality, with several features of its own which out performs the stock camera app.

But Realme’s stock camera also has some good features which cannot be overlooked such as the Pro feature, better hardware compatibility etc.

Summarizing it all, GCam will not replace the Realme camera rather both the camera apps can be installed on the same phone and you can use each app for which it better suits to your needs.

New features and updates of the GCam app keep coming, hence there could be many versions of the GCam ports available for the Realme C55 today and in future. This page will always list all the compatible Google Camera versions for the phone.
