Of course, no matter how good the camera hardware is on paper on some budget and even premium range flagship devices, the camera can often be limited to the software API that drives it – and generic, pre-installed camera apps are often anything but glorified selfie-capturing apps. Hence why there’s a bit of demand for porting Google Camera to various devices. Google Pixel’s amazing Google Camera app has an HDR+ and Portrait Mode features that are highly rated by Android photographers around the world, because Google uses truly awesome software algorithms for taking pictures – and why wouldn’t it, considering that Google developers Android. Even in comparison to devices like Huawei P20 Pro which has triple cameras, the Google Pixel 2 has a single camera and takes very comparable photo quality with the Google Camera app. Well Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 owners have reason to rejoice, as Google Camera app has found its way to the device via porting – though there’s a few steps involved, as we can’t simply sideload the APK or flash it in something like TWRP. The Google Camera app requires that Camera2API be enabled, and usually this requires a rooted device because you need to modify the build.prop in the /system partition – but its been recently discovered that we can enable the Camera2API on the Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 via a fastboot command in ADB, so really all you need are ADB drivers on your computer for this to work.
