I found this video on YouTube, thought it would be interesting for you all :)

Don't want to spoil blind camera test, so simple Poll = which one took better pictures?

That's pretty funny to see. To me it shows two somewhat contradictory points.

#1 - Mobile camera technology has come a long way.

#2 - We all get bogged down way too much in these comparisons, especially as good as things are now. A picture is meant to rekindle a memory or help relive a moment. Even some of the photos in that video accomplish just that.

100% The video was fun to watch to be able to see how the tech has improved since then.

I think the title and the whole "vs" part was only for clicks, no one compares old family pictures and which photos look best. I have been with Apple/iPhone for a long time and I can scroll way up to the top of my photo library and just look at the differences. Unfortunately my oldest photos only go up to the iPhone 3gs and not the iPhone 2g since I did not do a good job backing up photos (days of no iCloud) so I lost a good number of photos.

Yea best depends on the person. It could be zooming. Could be a great final picture. It could be how fast from locked to click it is. I agree I'd rather get the pic than miss it. Doesn't need to be spectacular years later for me to remember what happened in the pic.
