Google Camera for Poco X3 / NFC

Hola guys! So you guys are here for the reason that you might be holding Poco x3 with you, and now you are completely mesmerized with its unique features within it.
Along with the outstanding features like the processor, most notably the camera, have you imagined you can create wonders in it just by installing Google Camera for Poco X3? Read this article to download and configure GCam in Poco X3 or Poco X3 NFC.

What is GCam or Google Camera Mod?

GCam/Google Camera Mod is a modified Google Camera app, also known as Pixel Camera. Google Camera is the stock camera app shipped on Nexus and Pixel phones from Google. Google's HDR+ technology enhances the picture quality, especially on low and mid-end phones.

Features include HDR+, portrait mode, motion photos, panorama, lens blur, 60fps video, slow motion, and more.

Because Google Camera wasn't designed to work on all phones, it's all a bit messy (read: why so many devs/ports), but a few developers try to make it compatible with a massive number of phones.

Don't blame Google if something doesn't work, after all this is not the official app. Keep in mind that GCam isn't open-source, so it's hard or even impossible to add new features.

Features of GCam/Google Camera Mod

HDR+

When it comes to the Google camera features, HDR+ has a significant role in photography, by using this feature, the shutter is meant to be pressed for 5- 15 frames to get the most fantastic shot through it.

HDR+ Enhanced

This unique feature in Google camera gives out the results like the Smart HDR from Apple by using the overexposed and underexposed frames, so isn’t it fascinating that you can even use the apple features in your android as well.

Motion picture

One of the OG features of the Google camera is that it can even provide the features of motion pictures, just like Apple’s live photos. This is one of the overwhelming features of the google camera, in my view.

Video Stabilization

If you are a videographer, you guys must know how important it is to make a stabilized video, and just for that, most people must be using Gimble for that. But now you can save some huge bucks of your money because Gcam got your back by introducing another OG feature in it by providing stabilization.

Super Res zoom

This feature shifts the image’s resolution to the next level, and this feature gives out drizzling image processing.
