Still can't decide which one is better.
Gcam takes pics with more detail especially in low light.
Stock cam takes brighter pics with pleasing colour and better exposure in some cases.

It's easier to increase brightness /exposure in gcam.

Miui camera better in
1. HDR Pro photography
2. Eis video recording
3. Pro photography mode

G cam
Photo quality
Portrait photography quality

1. HDR on MIUI is very useless. I don't see it ever increasing any photo quality. HDR in Gcam is much better.
2. In gcam you can now go EIS in 1080p, 4k so I think GCAM is better in this department too. Plus, inside videos come darker in MIUI camera.
3. Gcam also has manual options. Have you tried them. MIUI camera doesn't render into RAW file which make pro mode less useful than gcam. If you are going to use pro mode, better you start using RAW mode.

Only plus point of MIUI camera in opinion is that it's reliability and slow modes.

Here's a link to gcam photos without compression, with wide angle lens mount. While new phones get integrated wide angle cameras, this is a great solution.

This is really intriguing. I'm more interested in tele/zoom lenses as they make sense when we are taking photos in some events. Untill now I didn't know these external lenses could produce good quality.

The telephoto is only 2x the zoom. Might help a little bit but not much.

The macro lens is also super good.
Here's a sample of macro - https://photos.app.goo.gl/DSnFMoxByHNtVRWW6

Look in my signature macros taken with a home made lens. You could also read all pages of the thread to see more good pics.
That wide angle lens is... ****ty, I also have one, but I'm not happy with it.

These are also very good. These lenses have come a long way.

I'm a fan of your photos. How you made your lens?

How is it ****ty? Im sure you can make a better one if you want but it ain't ****ty. Imo it's good/OK.

Wide lens vigneting the photos and have soft edges/corners. enough for me to call it so. I don't like also the unnatural and too pronounced effect of DoF (depth of field).

How you made your lens?

You will find it by reading the first posting of the thread. I also have an Apexel wide/macro lens, but my home made is way better. Optics are stunning.
