Although it's a gaming phone, users also care about the camera quality while using Nubia Red Magic 7. So, does the Nubia Red Magic 7 meet the users' photography needs?
Let's explore and find our answer.
1. Details of camera equipment on Nubia Red Magic 7
ZTE brings to the Nubia Red Magic 7 a main camera cluster consisting of 3 lenses:
- Main Wide Camera: 64 MP, f/1.8 aperture, 26mm, 1/1.97″, 0.7µm, PDAF;
- Ultra Wide Angle Camera: 8 MP, f/2.0 aperture, 120˚, 13mm, 1/4.0″, 1.12µm;
- Macro Camera: 2 MP, f/2.4 aperture.
Accompanied by an 8 MP front camera, f/2.0 aperture, (wide), 1/4.0″, 1.12µm. The device also offers a fairly simple photo shooting interface, however, the PRO Mode allows users to customize various camera settings for the best effects.
It can be seen that the camera setups on the Nubia Red Magic 7 are quite basic for a phone in the 20 million VND price range. However, given the device's focus on gaming, this is understandable.
2. Evaluation of Photo Quality from Nubia Red Magic 7's Camera
2.1 Daytime Photo Quality
The camera on the Nubia Red Magic 7 doesn't differ much from its predecessors, the Nubia Red Magic 6 and Nubia Red Magic 6 Pro. Photos taken in ample daylight with the Nubia Red Magic 7 offer good sharpness, wide contrast range with impressive details in shadows, and livelier colors than reality.
Of course, compared to photos taken by other phones in the 20 million VND price range, photos from the Nubia Red Magic 7 may not be as good, but for regular users, they're quite satisfactory.
2.2 Zoom Photo Quality
Due to the lack of optical zoom camera, zoomed-in photos on the Nubia Red Magic 7 are simply physically enlarged and cropped, so users may notice a lack of sharpness. However, overall, color and lighting are well handled.
2.3 Ultra Wide Angle Photo Quality
The Nubia Red Magic 7's ultra wide-angle camera, with just 8MP, doesn't offer great quality. With a narrow contrast range, dull colors, and lack of detail, the ultra wide photos from the Nubia Red Magic 7 may not satisfy users, but rather just provide additional scene options.
2.4 Close-up Photo Quality
Perhaps with a 2MP macro camera, it's hard to expect high-quality photos from the Nubia Red Magic 7. Close-up photos from the Nubia Red Magic 7 lack detail, and colors appear quite dull compared to reality.
2.5 Low-Light Photo Quality
The Nubia Red Magic 7, with its Night Mode feature, delivers impressive detailed photos, well-handled colors, and well-controlled contrast. The light from the Night Mode camera is also quite dazzling, meeting the needs of regular users.
2.6 Portrait Mode Photo Quality
Portrait photos taken on the Nubia Red Magic 7 can be said to bring satisfaction to users as the subjects are captured quite well and naturally beautified. However, the post-processing blur is not really natural.
2.7 Selfie Photo Quality
The 8MP camera delivers photos with fairly average quality, lacking in detail and color, while the beauty mode is also quite ordinary.
2.8 Video Recording Quality
The Nubia Red Magic 7 supports 8K, 4K recording technology, without optical image stabilization, so the stabilization on the device is entirely physical. However, both the image quality and stability during usage are quite good.
CONCLUSION
The camera quality of the Nubia Red Magic 7 is decent but not outstanding for its price range. However, as a gaming phone, it's sufficient to satisfy users.
