2. Google Pixel 4 XL
Technical Specifications
- Rear Camera: 12.2 MP (28 mm equiv. wide angle lens, f/1.7, PDAF, OIS); 16 MP (45 mm equiv. telephoto, f/2.4, PDAF, OIS)
- Front Camera: 8 MP, f/2, 22 mm (wide), ToF 3D Camera
This undoubtedly surpasses its predecessor Pixel 3 having gotten with the current trend of 2x optical zoom. But what really takes the metaphorical cake is its new Astro mode. It holds the shutter open for a little over 4 minutes to grab unmatched details of the night sky, provided that the camera is held perfectly still. While it punches plenty of details, it does give a tad bit darker images than the iPhone 11, making it more realistic. While it may seem a bit unappealing with just 2 cameras while most of the flagships have 3 or more, its image quality is simply too good.
3. Huawei P40 Pro
Technical Specifications
- Rear Camera: 50 MP (primary f/1.9, OIS); 40 MP (18 mm ultra wide angle, f/1.8); 12 MP (125 mm telephoto, f/3.4, OIS) ToF depth-sensing camera
- Front Camera: 32 MP
Huawei always had a top quality design and hardware and P4 Pro doesn’t disappoint either. It is one of Huawei’s top range 2020 smartphones. The pictures have a soft focus depth balanced perfectly against the details. Even the 5x optical zoom is pretty handy. However, the 50x digital zoom isn’t too great and also there is a lack of Google in this handset, that may cause buyers to think twice before buying. Overall, this is a great camera phone, even for content creators – Check Price
4. Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra
Technical Specifications
- Rear Cameras- 108 MP (primary f/1.8, 26 mm, OIS), 12 MP (ultra wide angle f/2.2, 13 mm), 48 MP (telephoto f/3.5, 103 mm), ToF depth-sensing camera
- Front Camera- 40 MP (f/2.2, 26 mm)
This is simply a behemoth, both in terms of on paper specs and performance. Undoubtedly, one of the best and most impressive camera phones ever produced in the Samsung Galaxy series. You can even shoot stills at 108 MP resolution. For zoom up to 3.9x, it uses the primary sensor and the 48 MP telephoto camera for 4x and beyond. It is even capable of offering a 100x zoom with a combination of sensor cropping and digital magnification. And the results are simply, in one word, astounding. – Check Price
5. OnePlus 8 Pro
Technical Specifications
- Rear Cameras- Main camera 48 MP (f/1.8); telephoto 8 MP (f/2.4); ultra wide 48 MP (f/2.2); depth 5 MP (f/2.4)
- Front Camera- 16 MP
The rear cameras capture very good details and colors under most sorts of lighting conditions. Its telephoto camera and close up pictures are nothing short of amazing either. While it’s still somewhat of a far cry from the other superzooms in the market, it still boasts a fantastic range of cameras along with Sony’s IMX 689 sensor for the main camera. Overall, it’s a true flagship in its own right and a terrifyingly good one at that. – Check Price
4. LG 68X ThinQ
Technical Specifications
- Rear Cameras- 12 MP (primary 1/2.55″ sensor, f/1.8, 78-degree FOV lens, 25 mm equiv. focal length, OIS, dual pixel PDAF); Ultrawide-angle 13 MP (1/2.8″ sensor, f/2.4 aperture, 136-degree FOV lens, 16 mm equiv. focal length, fixed focus)
- Front Camera- 32MP
The main camera shoots perfect 12 MP shots coupled with perfect details and sharpness. It’s quick to focus and gives good details even when zoomed in. The HDR process needs to be improved, however, as it brings uniformity in colors and shadows but at the cost of details and sharpness. The detailing and edge detection in this one is commendable as well. – Check Price
6. Oppo Reno 3 Pro
Technical Specifications
- Rear Cameras: 64 MP, f/1.7, 27 mm (wide), 1/1.72″, PDAF; 13 MP, f/2.4, 52mm (telephoto), 1/3.4″, PDAF, 2x optical zoom; 8 MP, f/2.2, 13 mm (ultrawide), 1/4.0″, AF; 2 MP B/W, f/2.4, (depth)
- Front Camera: 44 MP, f/2.4, 26mm (wide), 1/2.65″; 2 MP, f/2.4, (depth)
This phone certainly doesn’t disappoint with its photography output. While the megapixel count of the camera doesn’t always imply an amazing picture, this one certainly sets a mark when it comes to amazing photography at pocket friendly prices. – Check Price
7. Realme X50 Pro
Technical Specifications
- Rear Camera: 64 MP Ultra high-resolution wide-angle camera, 26mm, FOV 78.6°, f/1.8; 12 MP Tele camera, 54.0mm, f/2.5; 8 MP Ultra wide-angle & macro camera, 15.7mm, FOV 119°, f/2.3; 2 MP B&W Portrait Camera, FOV 88.8°, f/2.4
- Front Camera: 32 MP wide-angle camera, FOV 80.4°, f/2.5; 8 MP ultra wide-angle camera, FOV 105°, f/2.2
While the specs seem great on paper, and it does provide great imagery in outdoor lighting, the same seems a tad bit washed out with indoor lighting. While photos are full of color and detailed in well lit areas, lens flares show up when pointed in the direction of a light source. Still, getting such a good level of photography at a competitive price point makes it somewhat worth it. – Check Price
9. Vivo X50 Pro
Technical Specifications
- Rear Camera- 48 MP (f/1.6); 13 MP (f/2.46); 8 MP (f/3.4); 13 MP (f/2.4)
- Front Camera- 32 MP (f/2.45)
The phone provides vibrant and punchy images with vibrant colors irrespective of the lighting conditions. Its night and dark time photographs also surpasses that of many other mobile devices, although not at par with the likes of iPhone 11 and so on. Users can zoom all the way up to 60x although the quality takes a hit at that level. Its gimbal camera technology is surely impressive and is a good choice of investment for content creators, vloggers and the like. – Check Price
10. Xiaomi Mi Note 10
Technical Specifications
- Rear Cameras: Wide: 108 MP (f/1.7); Telephoto: 12 MP (f/2.0); 5 MP (f/2.0); Ultra-wide: 20 MP (f/2.2); Macro: 2 MP (f/2.4)
- Front Camera- 32 MP
Sporting 5 cameras at those high specs is nothing to joke about in the current smartphone market. It packs more pixels than most DSLR’s and mirrorless cameras, which are already above most smartphones. With the right lighting, the 108 MP images are simply breathtaking. Even the main camera overtakes the competition in many aspects. However the additional cameras may be somewhat inconsistent at times. Also images are definitely more sharper and have far greater detailing than many other devices in the market. – Check Price
