Why Use Google Camera on Redmi Note 8 Pro?

Google Camera (GCam) is renowned for its exceptional image quality and advanced features like enhanced HDR, enhanced noise reduction, clean speed, and more.

Download the GCam APK and XML Config: Start by visiting the xda developers website. Download the latest Google Camera 7.0 APK (the one used by the Pixel 4 lineup). Additionally, download the XML config file from the provided link.

Install the APK: Once the download is complete, proceed to install the Google Camera APK.
