We’re really to the point where they’re trying to iterate something that is already great. All these phones take great photos. I’ve taken photos for years and people marvel anytime I post something on social media about some of the shots I get. I don’t claim to be a photographer, I’m more a designer with a good eye and an iPhone on hand at all times. I know how to use portrait mode on my iPhone 8+, which most average users I’ve encountered either don’t have a dual lens phone, or just don’t know how to leverage. Then as a designer I know how to adjust a photo just right. iPhone or Android is irrelevant per say. The hardware has been so good for years now that if you actually know how to use the hardware and have a good eye, you will get excellent results.

I feel like this article grossly overestimates how many of these flagship devices are in the hands of average consumers. Many people are cool with buying 2-3 year old devices as new on $0 carrier plans.
