iPhone X / Google Pixel 2
The pace at which phone camera technology is evolving is not surprising at all. The phone industry has made Camera Quality, it’s primary marketing point. The demand for better cameras on smartphones has made the compact cameras almost obsolete. The camera capability of iPhone X and Google Pixel are on par with a compact camera. Given that they have advance processor with algorithm to process the image they perform even better. However they just cant beat the depth of field that can only be achieved by true DSLR. But the performance of the latest flagship cameras deserves a mention in 2017. It can only get better from here.
