Camera
The Redmi 5 is equipped with a single 12 MP rear camera with an aperture of f/2.2 and Phase Detection Autofocus (PDAF). This setup allows for capturing reasonable quality photos in good lighting conditions, and features like HDR and panorama add to its versatility. The LED flash assists in low-light scenarios, although results can be mixed. On the front, a 5 MP selfie camera suffices for video calls and casual selfies, both cameras supporting video recording at 1080p@30fps.
