The Pixel 2 XL's camera makes the iPhone 8 Plus' camera seem flawed
Hollis Johnson/Business Insider
I've just tested the cameras on two of the top smartphones you can buy right now - Apple's iPhone 8 Plus and Google's Pixel 2 XL - and they both take great photos. More than ever before, they're narrowing the gap between smartphone cameras and expensive DSLR cameras.
However, the companies behind each smartphone's camera have their own philosophy of how photos should look, much like camera brands. It's really up to you to decide which company's philosophy you like better. With that said, I personally can't agree with Apple's philosophy when it comes to colors, and I'd consider it a flaw, at least when I compared the iPhone 8 Plus photos to the Pixel 2 XL's.
Apart from that, most of my judgments against either phone's camera is nitpicking at this point.
See how the Pixel 2 XL's camera compares to the iPhone 8 Plus:
