Did you know that in your new Xiaomi Mi 9T you can install the Google Gcam camera without having to touch anything on the mobile, root it, change recovery or other actions that can endanger the warranty and usability of the terminal? All you have to do is download an APK file, as if it were a normal application from the Play Store, and install it as if nothing else on your mobile. Thanks to the Google Gcam application we can increase the quality of the stock camera of our Xiaomi Mi 9T which, although it is quite solvent and in full light there is hardly any difference, when night falls we do begin to find them. We will also find improvements in the front camera, when we take selfies. Everyone knows that the beauty modes of Xiaomi phones are usually very aggressive, even if we have them disabled. Conversely,the Gcam selfie is more realistic and sharp.

Let's not go any further, and we go to the page where we will be able to find the APK file of the Gcam for our Xiaomi Mi 9T. It is currently on this page where we will be able to find the Gcam application in beta version for our Xiaomi Mi 9T. As it is a very recent phone, the application may have bugs and it is expected that it will be updated and improved over time. We recommend that you leave the page that we have linked to in favorites to be aware of any update that becomes effective. If you see a new app, you would only have to download it again and install it over the one you already have in order to update it.
What works and what does not in the Gcam of the Xiaomi Mi 9T?
Unfortunately, there are functions in the Google Gcam that we will not be able to enjoy on our Xiaomi Mi 9T. For example, when trying to make a slow motion video, the application stops working and closes. In addition, for now, we will not be able to use the ultra-wide-angle sensor to take photos with more space on the sides, and it does not allow us to use the 48 megapixels to have photos in which to zoom in with higher quality. And speaking of zoom, if in the stock camera we can do a x2 optical zoom, it will not be the case with the Gcam. Also, in video recording we will not be able to opt for optical image stabilization.
Now we go with what really matters to us, what works in the Gcam of the Mi 9T?
Well, for example, we can activate the RAW format to obtain the negative image and, later, 'reveal' it thanks to applications such as Snapseed. The improved HDR + mode also works, to offer better sharpness in places of contrast of lights, both in front and rear cameras. It also includes a motion detector, to try to take photos in motion much better focused, retouching selfies, Google Lens integration, shutter on volume keys, improved night mode for images in low light… The best thing you can do is, simply, download and install the application and compare both photos. Depending on the results of both, choose when to draw one or the other.
