This is why I stopped reviewing smartphone cameras ๐๐๐๐๐
It's mostly over-processed garbage and prices have gone up over time โ
Smartphone manufacturers are skipping camera hardware upgrades for more software processing โ
Smartphone manufacturers are opting for "AI magic" editing over real quality photosโ
Even Google Pixels are providing over processed shots nowadays especially in low light. They've changed since the Pixel 4/5 series. I'm not sure if the Tensor chip is the culprit or if the departure of @marclevoy led to this

The new AI Camera Assistant* with Xperia Intelligence brings stories to life. Using subject, scene and weather, it suggests expressive options with adjustments of colour, exposure, bokeh, and lens for breathtaking photos*.

I still havenโt unboxed these two yet. I was going to gift this to my sister but bought her a Pixel 9 Pro XL instead.
Sheโs getting a better display, better cameras, more RAM, and a premium build.
Sheโll be missing out on the Pixel 2a buds, 1 less year of Pixel drops, and faster charging. Both have the same chip.
@techdroider@vvaiibhav It was the tech enthusiasts who first waited in line and bought them. We recommended them and promoted them to friends and family. OnePlus kept gaining popularity until they decided to chase a different crowd.
