Xiaomi may be the leader in smartphone shipments in India as per
**latest IDC report** , but if there is one area where it does need work is in its camera depart. As per the latest reports, Xioami is now instituting an in-house camera department to fortify its camera offerings in its smartphones.

a report by GSMArena, a leaked image of an internal email sent to employees by CEO Lei Jun reveals that a new camera department is being created within the company. Jun states in the letter that he personally sees cameras as one of the most important features of a smartphone and that Xiaomi will be committing its efforts to ensuring that Redmi and Mi smartphones do come with better cameras in the future. Xioami’s current flagship, the
**Mi Mix 2S** , managed an overall score of 97 on DXOMark with a score of 101 for images alone. While that in itself is quite impressive, with a team dedicated to improving the camera, we could expect even better camera performance from future Xiaomi smartphones. When we come to Xiaomi’s budget offerings, we also noticed a huge improvement in the camera this year with the
**Redmi Note 5 Pro** , which at the time of writing this report, still stands as one of the best performers in the sub-Rs 20,000 smartphone category in India. That said, with the Mi 7 launch in China right around the corner, it could be a little too early for us to see the new camera department work its wonders.
