It’s no secret that Google Camera brought a paradigm shift in mobile photography and has consistently outranked iPhone and Galaxy cameras for years now. OnePlus recently joined the flagship club of smartphone makers with its solid blend of hardware and software. But when it comes to optics, the camera is still its weakest point. Thankfully, if you want to up your photography game on your OnePlus device then GCam has your back.
In this article, we bring you the best GCam (Google Camera) Mod for OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T and 7T Pro. The GCam APK mentioned below works on all the OnePlus 7/7T series devices and it supports Aux cameras (Ultra-wide and telephoto) lens without root. So with that in mind, let’s go ahead and learn about the installation steps.
Best GCam Mod for OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T and 7T Pro With Aux Support (No Root)
Unlike earlier where you needed root permission to enable the Aux cameras, now you can do away with it. A developer named Wichaya has developed a GCam mod that works with all three lenses: ultra-wide, standard, and telephoto without root. That’s amazing, right?
I tested it on my OnePlus 7T and the GCam APK was quite stable. I didn’t face any force-close issue even for once which is quite commendable since I was constantly clicking pictures and switching the lenses. And the best part is that the new GCam takes pictures at full-resolution, just like the stock camera.
With GCam, the standard lens takes images at 12MP, the ultra-wide shoots at 16MP and the telephoto lens takes pictures at 12MP. The only downfall is the selfie shooter where you just get 4MP photos. Nevertheless, since the new GCam works flawlessly on all three rear cameras without root, it’s already a great treat. Now with all that said, let’s go ahead and download the latest GCam APK for your OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, and 7T Pro.
