I'm sure I'm not the only one who's had this idea, but:
* The Ultrapixel camera was quite good and performed well in low light.
* The new 20MP camera is terrible at low light.
* The Ultrapixel camera is now on the front.
THEREFORE: Has anyone tested using the front camera as the main camera, especially in low light situations? If so, can you post sample shots comparing the rear and front cams? If not, can someone perform this test and post samples?
Obvious downsides: you can't compose the shot very easily, but I'm really on the fence, and if I can get usable low-light shots with the front camera, then I'll feel more comfortable buying this phone.
Lenovo recently launched the Moto M, an aspirational upper-mid-range smartphone. The company is pushing it heavily for its metal body and looks as well as its well-rounded feature set. That is to say, there is no one standout feature such as a massive front camera - the screen, battery, and camera capabilities are all balanced. We were present at the company’s launch event, and here are our first impressions.
The look is certainly an improvement over previous plastic Moto phones, including the G and X series, but the Moto M does have echoes of other devices we’ve seen, especially HTC’s One range. It’s curved in all the right places, and thankfully isn’t slippery. The Moto M is only 7.85mm thin and feels comfortable in one hand. Build quality seems pretty good overall. A water-repellent “nano coating” should help prevent damage that could occur as a result of exposure to liquids, but this phone isn’t being promoted as waterproof.
The 5.5-inch full-HD screen is crisp, and the speakers have Dolby Atmos sound enhancement for added depth and richness. This is the first Moto phone to have Dolby Atmos, but we’ve seen it on several Lenovo models. In our short time with the unit, we were able to run an Atmos demo, and both the screen and the speakers were impressive. We will have to reserve final judgment till we can review the Moto M both indoors and outdoors, with our standard test content.
The power and volume buttons are on the right, and there’s a fingerprint sensor on the rear just where your index finger rests. Above it, there’s an oval bump for the camera and flash. The battery is sealed in, but has a capacity of 3,050mAh. Rapid charging is also supported. The phone takes two Nano-SIMs, but has a hybrid tray which means that you have to sacrifice the second SIM if you want to use a microSD card.
There’s a 16-megapixel rear camera with phase detection autofocus, and an 8-megapixel front camera. There’s a selfie beautification mode in the camera app too. The processor is a 2.2GHz octa-core MediaTek Helio P15. You get Android 6.0.1 with thankfully no modifications, and the interface is beautifully sparse and fluid.
Two versions of the Moto M will be available when it goes on sale; one with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, and another with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage .With such a small difference in price, the latter option makes a lot more sense.
What can you say to camera?
I think everythin is amazing on this smartphone, but the camera is not that good.
I do not know if its because of the software. But what do you think? Pro's and Con's of the camera.
Con's:
i think OIS
OIS is missing on alot of camera sensors especially those 20mp+ phones, Its not a biggie unless the camera holder has shaky hands. Also, we can't mourn over LG's signature Laser AF technology either.
Personally, the pixel size being smaller is a big hit on the head for a 16mp sensor. Moreover, it disturbs the low light/iso photography as well. LeEco's own camera software applies some kind of smoothing filter to eat alot of detail on the compromise of noise removal.
I've taken pictures from Cyanogenmod 13 and they are alot better than EUI camera.
Ok thank you.
What is a gold camera App for shooting pictures?
5.9 for China adds EIS to camera. I am betting when we get that update pictures and video will look better.
The quality is bad when u zoom in the photos, especially in low light condition

Hey, Mix 2 is going on sale tomorrow in India and at the last moment I'm confused whether to buy it or not. The main concerns being camera performance, the sound quality and the display. Help me out please:
Display: After rooting is anyone able to get videos from youtube and other sites running full screen (i.e. 18:9)?
Also do you feel the absence of AMOLED screen of QHD?
Camera: I've heard from multiple sources that even though the camera sensor is same as in g6, it doesn't fair as well because of software drawbacks. Has anyone tried the google camera port to find any improvements in camera quality?
Sound: Is it decent enough for watching movies with another person?
The Screen is bright and has nice colors.
I do not notice that Landscape video is "letterboxed". Having com from phones with large top and bottom bezels, a little extra black space on the sides disappears.
Sound is a little low, but good quality from the speakers. No problems if you connect a BT speaker.

What about the camera? I heard picture quality isn't great because of software drawbacks. Is it so? Could you try the new google camera v5.1 for any improvements?

I do not notice any difference in the camera and with my former phone, a Nexus 6P. Supposedly the Google HDR+ camera port improves the quality, but I have not bothered yet.
Recently I got my Nokia 6.1, well first thing I did was download Arnova's Google camera and Potter's Night Sight Google Camera.
Maybe it's me buy I wasn't able to find RAW capture in default camera app. Need help with this because I liked stock camera features.
as for Google camera, both cameras with Super photo settings, I noticed high amount of noise. Check photo corners
Both in night sight and HDR+ modes, so I'm sticking with stock camera, and using Gcam HDR+ only for selfies. Disappointed.
In poor light conditions, dslr-s also have noise in the final image, so you can't expect miracles from a sensor, that is as big as needle pin, compared to APS-C or FF sensors, which have way more area for gathering light. Combine that with the poorer high ISO performance, the lack of long exposure time, and the lack of variable aperture - I'm really amazed what the computational technology of GCam ports are capable of doing in low light, HANDHELD!!! Today I made some tests, and with nightmode I got results, that would require a tripod for my camera to make an image with comparable quality.
Stock camera doesn't have RAW support and RAW doesn't "eliminate" noise - on the contrary - in some situations, GCAM copes better than me in editing the noise out and preserving the detail (I do it in lightroom).
So for now, GCam with nightmode is quite a thing, given the limited hardware of every smartphone camera.

Well I am photographer myself and I understand what you said, but in my case even with ISO100 and 3 sec shutter with tripod final image has artifacts not noise. I noticed that even in daylight, somehow after phone
restart I got less of that, so possibly it was software bug.
So far I tested Footej Camera and Momento Pro Camera both of same allow saving in RAW , however they don't support long shutter speed above 1 sec.
FV-5 camera also is good, saves RAW format and also is pretty well.
As for Google Cam, I use it for selfies, they are a lot detailed, for video I recommend Cinema 4K , you get decent quality with 200mbps bitrate (sample)
And software stabilisation in that software is quite decent, make sure you shoot in 1080p for stabilisation to work.
I tested with lightroom camera, and sadly, I should agree with you, but I don't think it's a software bug. It's either the capability of the sensor (reason one for the short maximum long exposure time), or just fast overheating of the sensor (less plausible).
I've seen a comparison between pixel 3 night mode vs a7riii camera - it's amazing, and has nothing in common with the noise in 6.1. And this makes me think of a third reason - as this program is a port, it might have special algorithm for cleaning the noise of the pixel sensor, which doesn't work for ours. This theory can be checked by asking someone to take a comparable long exposure with pixel 3 in dng, with a third party program.
