I believe it shows that any reviews are subjective, subjective of the preference of the reviewer. So I never take any reviews seriously as they are simply the biased opinion of the reviewer. Besides, most of them are simply repeating the same things the manufacturer is saying on their ads with nothing new to add.
Yup! Apple needs to keep pushing to stay ahead. Looking forward to see what the cameras will be like for next year
+1. When both phones take pictures of comparable quality, other factors come into my purchasing decision.
Outside of some obvious boundary situations, I've rarely found the strength of a photograph, and the power it releases, tied to the pedigree/type/brand/etc of the camera capturing the image.
I could write paragraphs about what it is tied to. But as it's not about gear, I think many here would find that "boring."
If money wasn't an issue I'd say iPhone. Being that the pixel 4 xl is $300 cheaper due to launch promos at places like Best Buy, it's hard for me to say the iPhone is $300 better.
And yes, having used both platforms extensively, typically the deciding factor on wha phone I use for the nex 3+ years is indeed camera quality. That said, I've go another year before my X becomes a hand me down. And a camera his nice (or beer) plus usb c will have me really considering dropping the cash on he iPhone.

Seriously, I have no idea how this conclusion can be reached objectively, and so confidently.

Mobile phone photography is all about processing. The hardware basically can’t take good pictures without a lot of software magic.
The Xr can take essentially the same photos because it has all the processing power and just lacks 1 of the cameras.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who has said this. I went from 5s to 8 plus and the noise reduction is extremely noticeable. I miss the 5s quality
Let’s be serious. The 5s camera is garbage in comparison to the iPhone 11.
You guys are hilarious.
Not sure if unnatural hepatitis jaundice skin tone is better than naturally pale.
QUESTION: Other than the telephoto part of this video, shouldn't all results be the same on the iPhone 11 (non-pro) vs. Pixel 4???
I've asked in a few forums if data is taken from telephoto lens to improve pics and video recorded through the other 2, making results on the pro better than what you'd get on the non-pro. I haven't seen a single reply.

iPhone still have huge problems in portrait mode, just look at the fork. I recently took a picture of my daughter on a swing at the playground, portrait mode was great on the background but it blurred the chains of the swing too much, it looked like my daughter was flying... Sometimes I take portrait pictures of the dogs and details on the ears or nose are missing. I like the camera but portrait mode is still hit or miss. Night mode is impressive though, they did a really good job
But how do you define a "winner"? The best phone/camera for you might not be the best one for me. And what if the differences are totally subjective? The picture processing the reviewer prefers might not be the one you do. Surely it's better to give readers all the information so they can make an informed decision? There's too many people out there who need someone else to take care of all their decisions and opinions for them.
Install a third party camera app like Camera+ 2, shoot in RAW and then you can tweak the amount of noise reduction manually. That cuts out all of Apples fancy HDR and deep fusion processing.
