Among the many uses of mobiles, cameras are possibly the ones that have advanced the most in recent years to allow us to take advantage of countless functions. Among its options we find all those that offer us their lenses, but there are also others that are based on the software and that just by changing the resolution of the cameras in Android , improve the result.
However, not all mobiles or rather, layers of customization allow you to do this. The ones that make it easier are those models that use Android Stock or those that use the well-known Google camera by default, except in the case of Xiaomi that there is an exception with MIUI. In case you do not have the GCam camera app, we will also be able to install it, we will explain what this option consists of and how you could use it.
Change camera resolution on Android
Smartphones that already have the Google camera application will not have to do these first steps and can directly access the options. Although if your mobile does not integrate it, either because it is an OPPO, Xiaomi, Samsung or Realme model among other brands, we will have to follow the tutorial to install the GCam on our mobile . Otherwise we cannot really change the resolution of the photos and only the format will be an option.
Once we have it installed, we just have to repeat these steps:
- To begin we will have to enter the camera options.
- Next we touch on the drop-down bar to be able to touch the Settings gear.
- Once inside we will locate the Resolution option of the camera.
- And among its possibilities we will have access to two different resolutions.
Adapt the resolution on Xiaomi mobiles
Among the many options that the smartphones of the Chinese firm have, the resolution has not been overlooked and among their options they allow us to also make this change. In this camera application that comes on all Xiaomi phones with MIUI 10, MIUI 11 or MIUI 12 onwards, it allows us this modification.
In this case the steps are similar, we just have to enter the camera and go to Settings. Inside we will have access to several options among which we will choose Image quality and later we can choose between the three options that appear to improve or limit the resolution of the photos on Android with this simple option.
