Every third party camera app I've tried gives 5 Mpix photos becas of pixel binning. Anyway, Gcam set to Nexus 6P for front camera model gives way better shots than stock app, no matter the resolution.
What is the use of buying overpriced NOKIA mobile (compared to Chinese companies mobile), if we need to use GCAM ported app to take lot better pictures.
Well I don't want to argue again, but some of the fanboys started argument with me on how good NOKIA mobiles are when I complaint about pathetic NOKIA mobiles.
Chinese phone don't provide camera 2 API, no ois , etc Chinese phone have painful experience in android update, they give plastic build. Try to accept both pros and cons. No device is con free

I see that my explanation was deleted so I'll try again. From your post I can see that you form your opinions on ignorance and inexperience.
I had a chance to compare Gcam and stock camera photos on couple of 8.1s and 7 Plus and day photos are on par. Stock even gives a bit more vibrant and brighter photos. The only reason for using Gcam on them is Night Sight. No other app can pull out on auto mode what Gcam is able to. There is other ways to get even better night shots with stock, but you'll need long exposure which means you'll need tripod.
And you have no idea what fanboyism is. It's much different from satisfied users who are bringing facts in argument. So, yeah... If Xiaomi had what I was looking for at the time I decided to buy a new phone, I would gladly go with it is I really loved my Mi A1, but they didn't. My conditions for a new phone were: Android One with Android Pie as starting point, factory unlocked Camera2 API, 3.5mm jack and OIS. So, I could get Xiaomi Mi 8 for the same price as Nokia 8.1 but it is not Android One and doesn't have 3.5mm. I've decided not to wait for A3 as all previous Xiaomi A series phones had to be rooted to use Gcam and at that moment the only phone that fulfilled everything I was looking for was Nokia 8.1.
