The Google Camera has been ported to the Xiaomi Mi 5 and Essential Phone, complete with working Night Sight mode.

Night Sight is a Google Pixel 3 series-exclusive feature that offers superior low-light shots.

The port’s developer is also said to be working on bringing it to the OnePlus 6.

The Google Camera app for the Google Pixel 3 has been ported to the Xiaomi Mi 5 and the Essential phone, complete with working Night Sight mode.

XDA does note that the quality is improved but remains inferior to the Pixel 3 experience, but this can be said of the Mi 5 and Essential Phone cameras in general. Since the Essential Phone’s camera was maligned at launch I’m sure any of its owners will be pleased to try different options, even if it’s only effective in the dark.

Meanwhile, Arnova8G2 is apparently working on bringing Night Sight mode to the OnePlus 6 too, and possibly the 6T following its launch later today. We’ll keep you posted on developments regarding that — currently, the port is available but Night Side doesn’t work yet.
