The recently launched Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro show that Google remains the company to beat smartphone photography. This year, the company made a huge upgrade, which includes a new in-house Tensor Chip and camera hardware. Before now, they relied heavily on software processing for the pictures, but with the Pixel 6 series phone, the hardware has been improved as well.
Of course, the company also made some upgrades in the Google camera software. They debuted some features, which are currently limited to the Pixel 6 series phones with the Google camera 8.4. However, the most fascinating thing about the camera app – Magic Eraser – is available for download. Interestingly, you can download the Google magic eraser on Xiaomi Android phones and other non-Pixel phones.
What’s Google magic eraser
For starters, Google Magic Eraser is an improved ‘Erase’ function on the MIUI gallery app. While that latter leaves a trace of the deleted object, Google has worked on that with the magic eraser. That’s to say, with the Google Magic Eraser, you can successfully remove unwanted people and objects from your photos without leaving a trace. Interestingly, the feature works on older phones, and you can download them on Xiaomi Android phones.
