This means that cameras like the 64MP rear main camera is limited to 16MP (64\/4=16). This is the same resolution used on the MIUI camera by default.<\/p>\n<p>Features like Portrait mode, Night sight, Astrophotography, Timelapse, etc, should work fine.<\/p>\n<p>All cameras work without root and with most (all?) package names. The depth sensor isn&#8217;t used as GCam does the same, but with software.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding video, stabilisation and slow motion will be better on the stock X3 NFC MIUI camera, but Google Camera might allow you to record higher resolutions and higher FPS which are usually blocked on slower processors. Features like Timelapse are also available.<\/p>\n<p>For users on <em>custom ROMs<\/em>, you <em>may<\/em> have to use a fix on some ROMs to enable the extra cameras. Test first, if it doesn&#8217;t work then try the fixes.<\/p>\n<div id=\"celso-475102897\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6897310014199352\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Celso GCam Page Poco X3 NFC 2 -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6897310014199352\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1079937989\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/div>\n<h2>Useful links:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.celsoazevedo.com\/files\/android\/google-camera\/how-to\/\">How to install GCam and a config file<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/xdaforums.com\/t\/gcam-for-poco-x3.4164397\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">XDA thread<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/PocoX3Photography\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Telegram group<\/a><\/li>\n<li>For custom ROM users: <a href=\"https:\/\/xdaforums.com\/t\/aosp-11-gcam-fix.4347811\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">AOSP 11 Fix<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/xdaforums.com\/t\/oss-11-gcam-fix.4353645\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">OSS 11 Fix<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/PocoPhones\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Poco subreddit<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Xiaomi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Xiaomi subreddit<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.celsoazevedo.com\/files\/android\/google-camera\/dev-suggested\/\">Other stable versions<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.celsoazevedo.com\/files\/android\/p\/gcam-for-poco-x3-pro\/\">Versions for the X3 Pro<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.celsoazevedo.com\/files\/android\/p\/gcam-poco-x3-gt\/\">Versions for the X3 GT<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On this page you&#8217;ll find stable versions of the GCam mod for the Poco X3 NFC, which is powered by the Snapdragon 732G and features a Sony IMX682 64MP sensor as the main rear camera, with a 13MP ultra-wide and a 2MP macro cameras also available.
