The Xiaomi Mi 10i is the Indian exclusive of the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G, which debuted in China last year. Both phones have the same development, but with different names. Their major highlight is the primary 108MP snapper, accompanied by additional three sensors: 8MP + 2MP + 2MP. Of course, you can get decent shots and videos from the stock camera app, but you’d get more when you install the latest Gcam on Xiaomi Mi 10i.
For starters, the Google camera app (Gcam) is a camera application developed by Google. It comes pre-installed with Google Pixel phones and is the best camera app out there when it comes to smartphone photography. Unfortunately, you can’t install the app on non-Pixel phones except the mod version, and luckily, we have developers helping with that. There is a good number of Gcam app that’ll work on your Xiaomi Mi 10i, and below is how to download and install them.
