Qualcomm details how its Snapdragon processors help your phone take low-light photos
Smartphone cameras have been rapidly improving over the past few years, and just in the previous few months we’ve seen some OEMs try to tackle the issue of low-light photos on their devices. Dealing with poor lighting has always been something smartphone cameras have struggled with, but thanks to some new hardware from partners like Qualcomm, it’s improving dramatically every year.
In situations with low light, smartphone camera pixels will increase their sensitivity to light to try and capture as much of the image as possible. This has the unwanted side effect of creating visual noise in images, though, which is where software can take over to try and improve pictures.
Qualcomm’s Snapdragon line of processors does just that. It helps to reduce image noise with some complex algorithms and tone matching, which cleans up some of those low-light shots without sacrificing quality. They’ve posted a detailed blog post about exactly what goes into these Snapdragon-assisted photos, which you can check out at the post below.
