Google Pixel 8 Pro Camera Samples
Featured in this article
Google Pixel 8 Pro, ultrawide camera with Night Sight. Google finally gave the ultrawide camera on the Pro model an upgrade, and I'd go so far as to say it's one of the best ultrawides on a phone right now. It can produce brighter and sharper results with minimal distortion.
iPhone 15 Pro Max, ultrawide camera with Night mode. The iPhone's ultrawide can be just as sharp (though not here in this specific example), but it doesn't deliver bright results in low light.
Google Pixel 8 Pro, main camera. I've found the Pixel does a better job with HDR—high-contrast scenes. Here you can see more details in the shadows, and the wood beams are a more color-accurate tone.

The Pro model now supports autofocus in the selfie camera, so you can get sharper results than with the fixed focus front camera on the Pixel 8. However, it's *still* not quite as sharp as I'd have liked, but I might be nitpicking here.

Photograph: Julian Chokkattu09Google Pixel 8 Pro, 5X optical zoom. I love zoom lenses. This one is sharp, well-exposed, and has plenty of color.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu10Google Pixel 8 Pro, 2X zoom. Compare this with the following iPhone photo. They both are very similar, but I actually prefer the colors on the iPhone's shot and it's a hair sharper (you have to really zoom in to tell).

Photograph: Julian Chokkattu12Google Pixel 8 Pro, 5X optical zoom with Night Sight. In low light, I've found the iPhone's 5X zoom outperforms the Pixel in sharpness. The Pixel brightens up the image more, but it's not as sharp.
