Asus ROG Phone 5, Night mode. Use the dedicated Night mode in the camera app when you're in low-light situations. Zoom in and you'll find impeccable details in the brickwork and accurate colors.

Asus ROG Phone 5, Night mode. With Night mode, you stand still for a few seconds as the camera captures several photos and stitch them together. Here, there's no part of the photo that's too dark, and the marquee isn't overblown.

Asus ROG Phone 5, Portrait mode. The blur effect behind the subject here is well done, with an excellent outline without awkward errors.

Asus ROG Phone 5, selfie camera. Zoom in to my face and shirt and you'll notice a lot of grain, which shouldn't be the case considering how bright the area was. Still, that's just about the only issue I have with this photo.
