        Couldnt find small phones with active custom roms, my pixel 5 died suddenly so bought this over s21 fe or 6a or edge 40. Is slimmer and has active custom rom development, not mediatek, manages heat with internal heat sink, bluetooth connection is not very reliable with distance. Good battery life. Camera better without AI.

          It would be nice to get Android 14. I was on the January patch and received the March patch a couple of days ago. I was expecting it to arrive with Android 14. I wonder if that means we'll be waiting until May.

            It is a superb phone ! I had it for almost a year and it ticks all the boxes.
            Some cons:
            - Heats up while watching YouTube or on call
            - Battery life isn't that great

                Device has already updated to Android 13 a long tome ago. I don't know why they didn't update the page to show that...

                  Hell, strange this has 6 GB of RAM with 256 GB of storage, anyway, PixelOS 14 got support for this phone, so if you don't want to wait for a long time to update, PixelOS has got your back

                    Settings -> Configuration of modes -> Camera modules -> Exposure correction. Set HDR+ Enhanced correction to x2 ISO

                    And for BigKaka GCam (v 9.1) it's:

                    Settings -> Lens setting -> Main lens -> Image processing -> Profile 1 -> Extended Settings. Set NS Max Exposure Time to 240 ms. THEN you have to activate Profile 1 using the Profiles button on top toolbar in the viewfinder.

                    Note that Max Exposure Time setting is not available in all GCam ports and versions.

                        Maybe Lenovo/Motorola can do better camera optimizations with the Android 14 update for our phone model. You shouldn't need to run gcam to get good results.

                          Cameras in this phone are actually good because main cam has flagship grade OmniVision OV50A sensor and selfie cam also has good Samsung ISOCELL S5KGD2 sensor. Photos are bad because Motorola's software is bad. Once you install Gcam it starts taking incredible photos. Colors and lighting are basically true to life, HDR works perfectly and the amount of details is amazing. It takes photos like a good class compact camera, I'm not joking, see for yourself.

                          You have to install BigKaka Gcam 9.0. It's the only one currently where you can get the highest photo quality with no issues or artifacts. When you install it you have to:

                          1. Go to Settings and select Pixel 8 Pro in Device Interface
                          2. Go to Settings -> Lens setting -> Choose lens and leave only ID = 0, 1 and 3 checked
                          3. Go to Settings -> Lens setting -> Main and set Device Interface and HDR+ Model to Pixel 8 Pro
                          4. Do step 3 for other lenses too
                          5. If you want true to life colors, do not press the AW button on the top bar. It makes the colors warmer with a reddish tint.

                          The only issues are that Night Mode/HDR Enhanced freezes when it's too dark (happens on all GCams) and recording videos doesn't work. But for photos it's absolutely fantastic.

It makes some noise to appear in low light and darker places but this is the basic law of digital photography: more noise = more details as the photos are not processed as much. No more artificial oil painting look, everything looks super crisp and natural. I guarantee you will be blown away by the level of details on the photos. This is standalone digital camera quality. Here's how to do it:

                            1. Go to Settings -> Configuration of modes -> Interface and change it to Pixel 8 Pro

                            2. Go to Settings -> Configuration of modes -> Camera modules and set "Model" setting to Pixel 8 Pro for every camera

                              Selfie camera on the Stock app sucks, photos are too soft and blurry and out of focus and the colors and white balance are off. BUT - install GCam and it becomes great again! Details are back, colors and white balance are great, the difference is night and day. It's not like the selfie camera is bad (it has Samsung ISOCELL GD2 S5KGD2 sensor), it's just that Motorola screwed up their software. I use BSG GCam port and it works nearly perfect with Edge 30 Fusion out of the box and I read it's the most compatible port for Motorola phones. Plus, it's being updated and improved weekly.

                              -------------------------------------------------

                              INSTALLATION

                              Installation is really simple. Just download the BSG GCam apk from celsoazevedo page (Google it), install it and that's it. Don't get confused when you see few different apks to download inside one GCam version. You can install any, they are all the same and differ only by package name so that you can install multiple versions at once.

                              -------------------------------------------------

                              HOWEVER, it doesn't mean that GCam is better for all kinds of photos,because it's not. Main camera performs significantly better in low light conditions on Stock app. If you want to get the best camera experience out of this phone you basically have to use 2 apps at once as follows:

                              USE GCAM FOR:

                              - Selfies (the difference is extreme in all light conditions)

                              - Main camera good light photos (Stock app is strong as well but GCam still does it better, the difference is not extreme but it's there and it's noticeable and worth it. More accurate colors, lighting reproduction, HDR, exposure and white balance. The biggest disadvantage of stock app is when there is a lot of backlight, for example you photograph a tree and there is a bright sky behind it. The whole scene becomes too bright and washed out while Gcam handles it with zero problems).

                              - Wide camera (all lighting conditions)

                              USE STOCK APP FOR:

                              - Main camera low light photos and night mode (GCam's Night Sight looks a lot worse, denoising algorithm is too aggressive and the image loses too much details + the colors are off. The same happens when you use flash. Stock app makes really great and impressive low light and night photos)

                              - Zoom (same case as above - GCam has too aggressive denoising and the fine details are lost. Zoom, even if only digital, looks really impressive on the Stock app)

                              - Additional features and quirks like slow motion, timelapse etc. (I don't recommend using GCam because those features might not be as compatible with the phone as the Stock app, i.e they might not work as good and could crash or freeze the app)

                              BOTH ARE MORE OR LESS EQUAL IN:

                              - Macros
                              - Video (I compared 4K 60fps videos)

                              IN SHORT - use GCam during the day and for selfies, use Stock app at night and you are golden.

                              -------------------------------------------------

                              TIPS TO GET THE BEST POSSIBLE QUALITY OUT OF BSG GCAM

                              1. Keep Google AWB on
                              2. Go to Settings -> Configuration of modes -> Interface and change it to Pixel 5a 5G
                              3. Go to Settings -> Configuration of modes -> Camera modules and change JPEG compression quality for each camera to 97% to ensure the best possible picture quality. No need to set it higher as the laws of JPEG compression state that there is literally no difference in visual quality above 97% except the file size will be much larger.
                              4. When you launch the app you will see 2 options for front cameras - 0.7 and 1.0. 1.0 is main camera an 0.7 is Wide and Macro camera. There is no separate button for Macros since they just use the same camera as wide photos, so don't search for it.

                              -------------------------------------------------

                              PROBLEMS I NOTICED WITH GCAM:

                              1. Night Sight freezes when in very low light. You tap the shutter button and you wait and wait but nothing happens, you have to restart the app. Maybe it will get fixed eventually but who knows. But Stock app night mode is much better anyway so just use that.
                              2. Do not set HDR to off. It freezes the viewfinder and you can't take photos. Just leave it on HDR+ or HDR+ Enhanced.

It has built-in app called Secure Folder. ... moreActually, Secure Folder app acts like App Clone tool too now that I think about it. It's basically a sandbox. When you add an app there, a clean copy is created. Apps inside this folder have no knowledge of what's happening outside and vice versa. So yes, Dual Apps is possible.
