S7 NIGHT SCREEN ANDROID
S7 NIGHT SCREEN PRO

Our best camera phones rankings include a gallery of shots we've taken with each phone. Both take great photos in daylight, but the Pixel comes out ahead when that light starts to dim. The iPhone SE (2022) doesn't support a Night mode. If you want a lower-cost camera phone, the Pixel 6a is absolutely the best choice.

(These three photos show why the Pixel 6 Pro tops the Galaxy S22 Ultra.) The latest phones from Samsung - particularly the Galaxy S22 Ultra - come close, especially when it comes to low-light photos and zooming in on subjects, but Google's phones remain the best. The Google Pixel 6 Pro, and the Pixel 6 next to it, are the new cream of the crop.

If you want to look beyond Apple's phones, plenty of the best Android phones feature impressive cameras of their own. Featuring a triple 12MP setup with larger sensors on the wide and ultrawide cameras, plus 3x optical zoom on the telephoto lens, the new Pro models earn their names with spectacular photos and videos. The current king of camera phones is the iPhone 13 Pro Max, followed very closely by the smaller (and less expensive) iPhone 13 Pro. It's not just about the number of lenses on the back, either - some phone makers make the most of artificial intelligence to improve post processing on your photos. We're looking for camera phones that meld intricate optics and sensors with software algorithms that rely upon math and science to extract the best possible light, color and detail out of every scenario. Such camera testing has helped us find devices that capture memorable images and once-in-a-lifetime shots you'd miss with less-capable handsets. Check out our Samsung Galaxy S22 vs iPhone 13 Pro Max low-light photography comparison or our Portrait mode face-off to see what we mean Samsung also upgraded the cameras used for its Galaxy S22 lineup for an interesting logjam at the top of our best camera phones list. Of course, you're not limited to the iPhone or the Pixel if you want a phone that takes great pictures. Both Apple and Google rely heavily on computational photography to further improve the images their camera phones produce. Not only do the current best camera phones feature improved hardware - Apple upgraded the sensors on the iPhone 13, while the Pixel 6 Pro gets a long awaited telephoto lens - the software keeps improving, too.
