The PIP and dual shot modes are strange. Not sure why someone would want to use them but I'm old and probably missing something. The camera does seem to take nice low light pictures. It doesn't say much for One Plus that Google and Nokia camera apps both take better pictures on the OP5 than the official One Plus camera app.

Quick comparison, both zoomed in until 150%. Checked focus and tried to shoot from the exactly same position.

First one ist OP5, leaked beta 3 (Oreo), camera version 2.512.

Second one is the ported NOKIA 8 camera app. It seems like noise reduction is better applied. Seems better to my eyes.

Low light definitely looks alot better using this app compared to stock.

(Also less watercolor looking images in general)

One Plus improved their camera app a bit in LB4/OB2 but this one and Pixel camera still look better.

Camera 2 API gives more control over camera options than Camera 1 API so all of the features in ported camera apps like Nokia and Pixel won't work on the OP5. Camera 2 Api isn't new either. Google introduced it on the Nexus 5X which was several years ago. I doubt if any Android phones that takes good pictures uses Camera 1 Api anymore.

Not true, because API 1 is easier to handle while remaining smaller in size. AP2 is still buggy and supports less features. For reference i would suggest to read the clarification from SultanXDA
