Low light - Honor 9 Real Life Review

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 Honor 9'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.

photos are good, but could have been better

Now this is where honor 9 outstands.

auto mode, low light results is pretty bad. the lense doesn't get enough light because of the aperture size. for still photos, pro mode will produce amazing pictures but you need a tripod or something similar.

It struggles in low light..
But in normal light photos are really good..

Is very nice results.

Here you can read the details and watch a video of this working.
Summarizing, is based on rendering screen only showing one component of color. It could be a great idea combined with the light sensor for working automatic in high light ambient, in solar light, etc.
Old News are old.
thats definetely not that i want to see on my wonderful OLED screen
Ok, i think on not a normal use... but think in direct sunlight... your wonderful oled screen... seem to be the same with or without this and power needed is less.... it could be a good solution.
ok what the point to buy a phone with OLED? Buy a phone with monochrome display.

Smartphone cameras have long long way to go. But this one is decent enough for current generation.

Camera 2 API Green squares problem

Hey guys since I've flashed my phone with the camera2api.zip I've noticed that I have some issues with taking photos in dark places, and you can see in the screenshots it seems to be some Green squares and one 'normal' colour frame un the upper right corner, and sometimes the photo has some strange flares with magenta colors with low light photos, and every time I need to use my front flash, it seems to not sync with the camera giving me awful photography results generally this problem happens when i take pictures with the WhatsApp Camera, but sometimes with other camera apps like Footej Camera. Hope someone know how to solve this!

Camera sucks at greenery / foliage pictures

Went on a hike in Brazil today and couldn't manage to take any decent photos the tree and other green stuff. It seems the contrast between the bright light and the dark green of the vegetation really screws with the AI, but even with the AI disabled, the pictures still looked like below. Is there a way take greenery photos closer to what the human eye would see, with the P30 Pro? Or is post-processing the only option for approaching realism?
With AI on:

I don't have a comparable shot with another phone, but here's a jungle pic shot with an iPhone XR. To me it looks a lot more vibrant and fresh.
