This sentiment makes no sense.



What I mean is that getting the label of the "best" phone camera isn't easy. Samsung and Apple basically go back and forth with each release. Then Google comes along with this brand new phone that pips the just-released iPhone 7. Impressive is all.


They didn't test the iPhone 7 Plus yet. The camera there could be better.

And while it's of course great that they built such a good camera, it's the least of what people expect. Cameras seem to be the last domain where phones differentiate. Software is similar, speed is similar, shape and size anyway.


This "Google" phone is actually manufactured by HTC who has been making (Android) camera phones for years.


And whose HTC10 is currently considered to have the best camera on the market.
