If you own a Zenfone Max Pro M1, despite having a lucrative spec sheet, you should know that its stock camera app is terrible. Of course, under sufficient lighting, the dual camera performs fairly well, but at the same time when in badly or medium lit environment the picture comes out to be awful. The situation is even worse while shooting a video when a substantial amount of noise peeps in reducing the quality of output.
Nonetheless, the Google Camera app address the issue to a large extent. We can assure you that the picture quality is way better than the native Camera app. You can also get other features such as Photo Sphere, integrated Google Lens and so on that are not available on the stock camera app.
