Download Google Camera APK For HTC U11

Google Camera Port is now available for HTC U11. Though the camera that comes preloaded with Samsung Galaxy Note 9 is decent enough, Google Camera for HTC U11 offers better picture quality.
The HTC U11 sports in a 5.5-inch QHD Super LCD5 display. It is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 SoC clocked at 2.45 GHz and comes with 4/6 GB of RAM with 64/128 GB of internal storage which can be expanded up to 512 GB via a micro SD card. It runs on HTC Sense UI based on Android 7.1 out of the box. It is juiced by a 3000 mAh battery. In the camera department, the HTC U11 packs in a 12 MP sensor that is combined with a f/1.7 lens. There is another 12 MP sensor with a telephoto lens of f/2.4. On the front, there is a 16 MP sensor. Though the phones pack in some decent camera hardware, the software processing is not up to the mark. For three years in a row, Google proved that with better software processing algorithms, their phones with a single rear camera can outperform phones with multiple cameras on the rear. If you happen to own an HTC U11 and want a similar level of image processing, here is how you can achieve that.

Recommended Settings

These APKs don’t require any additional configuration, but, on top of the usual options (camera sounds, video resolution, etc) there are a few things you can change (explore the settings menu!):
  • HDR+ parameters: “Default” is enough for most people. Higher settings may produce better photos, especially in hard conditions, but it takes more time to process.
  • HDR+ image quality: Change the jpg compression (a lower value results in smaller files, but the quality is worse).
  • HDR+ RAW+JPG: Save RAW files.
  • Correction of auto-exposure HDR or Auto-Exposure: Controls shutter speed, not 100% stable. Works better in low light and with HDR enhanced enabled.
  • HDR+ enhanced for portrait mode: Slower, but better portrait photos.
  • Disable zoom in portrait mode: By default, it zooms in a bit.
  • Use Nexus6P model: Photos with better details/sharpness (and noisier).
  • Since slow motion doesn’t work on Oreo, you can hide the option from the menu: Settings > Advanced > Fix Camera API2 > “Disable video slow motion”

Troubleshooting

Android Oreo users: if you can’t see your photos from inside Google Camera, go to “Debugging and tools”, uncheck “camera.use_photos” and restart the app. Options/options names can be changed/removed depending on the version.
