Download Google Camera Port APK for Xiaomi Poco X2/Redmi K30 [Latest]

Here you can download the latest Google Camera (GCam) port for Xiaomi Poco X2 and Redmi K30, along with the instructions on how to install it.

Installing the Google Camera on your phone will allow you to use and experience the infamous Google Pixel camera features like Astrophotography Mode, Night Sight, Portrait Mode, HDR+, AR Stickers, and more. Working and stable ports of Google Camera v7.3.020 and v6.2.030 are now available for download. These are compatible with any Poco X2/Redmi K30 running Android 10 officially (MIUI) or unofficially (custom ROMs).

The Poco X2 (and the Redmi K30 in China) has given a tough competition to the rest of Android devices in the price segment. The phone has received very good feedback from new users as well as from Android veterans given the powerful hardware it offers in the budget. It is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G SoC, 6 GB RAM, a whopping 6.67-inch display with support for HDR and 120Hz refresh rate, which isn’t something you’ll see on a budget phone.

When it comes to the camera department, the Poco X2/Redmi K30 sport a quad-lens setup, with a 64MP wide lens, a 2MP macro lens, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 2MP depth sensor. On the front is a dual-lens setup with 20MP wide and 2MP depth sensors. Some of the major camera features outlined by the manufacturer include HDR, Portrait mode, EIS, AI Beautify and more.

Overall, the photos taken by the stock camera are pretty refined and contain minimal noise and grain when shot in good lighting. According to Android Authority, Portrait Mode falls off really hard when it comes to detecting human faces, especially in areas around the hair. Moreover, HDR also isn’t perfect as it fails in over-exposed environments.

To sum up, the Poco X2 stock camera isn’t fully polished for the ultimate camera experience. And that’s exactly where the Google Camera (GCam) port can help you. The magic you see in photos taken by a Google Pixel phone is more of an outcome of good software implementation than the hardware itself.

So, installing the Google Camera Port on your Poco X2 can give a substantial boost to your phone’s photo and video quality. Plus, you will also get to use Pixel camera app features like Astro Mode, HDR+, Night Sight, and more. If you feel the same, then you can download the latest Google Camera Port APK for Poco X2/Redmi K30 from below and install it. It’s surely worth trying!
