At the club, at the bar, or just in your mom's basement, nighttime is when you come out to play. Rate this thread to express how the Moto G6's camera performs when no or low light is present. A higher rating indicates that the camera sensor "sees" lots of light in dim conditions, and that the resulting photos have minimal noise. A higher rating also indicates that when the flash fires, the resulting photo is evenly-lit without any bright spots.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

It's true in that the low light pics aren't the greatest. Still, the image stabilizer works well in low light, and the f1. 8 aperture is a huge help for photos without flash.

Personally, I don't mind some noise in certain low light shots. It adds some old school 35mm film vibe to the photos, which I love.

The quality in low light is very similar to shooting with a Ricoh GRD4. It's grainy but it's usable. I'm still having trouble diffusing the onboard flash without the flash reflecting back to my image, but for now, I use the Aputure ML-M9 to compensate.

Actually the low light performance impressed me big time. I've recently used Moto G6 play, Moto Z, and Moto X 2014. The G6 camera is very comparible to the Moto Z and blows the other two away. Last night I took a pic of my cat in very dim evening lighting. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't pitch dark, but it would have been hard to read a book.
