So I did a test between the cameras on these phone, CURRENTLY there is no night mode available, I've seen it on some youtube videos for the same phone in a different region, so I'm sure it'l be included in a future software update. But as things stand now, there's no completion during the night, the image taken with the Mate 20 Pro is clearer, sharper, it's got more detail and less noise than the image taken with the PocoPhone F1.

Anyone know when night mode update will be available in the UK?

Video stabilization is good on both phones although the Mate 20 Pro's is slightly better because it remains sharp during stabilization other than that there isn't much difference in detail, of course the color temperatures are different but everything else is pretty comparable and both phones do well at changing focus between foreground and background objects.

For the price the Pocophone is going for, the photos are great, in daylight the images are sharp and clear, there's good contrast in the images, not overly over-saturated and very true to life. High Dynamic Range is pretty good too, I was pretty surprised at how well it took pictures in very bright conditions. The Mate 20 Pro is still unsurprisingly better in every scenario, it's more flexible with its additional wide angle and zoom lens, it has better High Dynamic Range, pictures are sharper, more detailed and the colors are more true to life. It's not even a contest, but the Pocophone is still a winner if it's bang for your buck that you're looking for.

I also did a video which you can have a look at if you want, otherwise the above covers what's mentioned in the video.

Stock camera for stills on poco is not worth comparing either use gcam or don't compare it to a flagship at all.

Xiaomi released a nightmode in the beta updates but it's way worse than Google camera.

Poco and the pixel 3 have the same sensor on the back a imx 363, idk if the ois makes a difference tho here.

Apparently the Google night sight and the mate 20 pro are on par with each other during night shots.
