We recently reviewed Nokia 5.4 camera and found it impressive both hardware and software wise. Now, we compare Google Camera to default Nokia Camera on Nokia 5.4 in terms of imaging quality.
We captured stills using both Google Camera and Nokia Camera on Nokia 5.4. Captured images represent many different lighting conditions and subjects.
Here are comparison sets of 100% and 200% crops of images captured by Google and Nokia Camera. Google Camera image crop is on top followed by the Nokia Camera image crop on the bottom. Both images are captured in daylight but also have shadowed and darker areas.

What is interesting here is the level of exposure that Nokia Camera is identifying correctly. Auto-HDR is on Nokia Camera and Google Camera. But Nokia Camera does better work in terms of illuminating the darker and shadowed portions of the image.
