Google Pixel 2 хоть и не обладает вторым модулем камеры, но тем не менее, он вошел в топ и занял не самое последнее место. Основной модуль на 12 мегапикселей с диафрагмой f/1.8. Размер пикселя составляет 1,4мкм и это очень даже круто. Также, сенсор обладает системой оптической стабилизации изображение и поддерживает фазовый автофокус. Так что же мы в итоге имеем, почему данный смартфон стал одним из лучших? Его камера обладает широким динамическим диапазоном, отличным балансом белого, правильным размытием фона, шикарной детализацией и быстрой автофокусировкой. Это основные параметры, по которым составлялся данный рейтинг. Безусловно, все они влияют на качество фотографий, сделанных на Pixel 2. Сами же снимки очень высокого качества и гораздо лучше, нежели у расхваленного Apple iPhone X. Правда тот стоит довольно-таки дорого, а Google Pixel можно приобрести за 38 тысяч рублей.
Conclusion Top-ranked single-lens phone
With the sky-high prices of the latest XS line of iPhones, the less-expensive XR will be desirable to many Apple enthusiasts looking to upgrade their smartphone. Implementing a single-cam solution makes the XR more affordable, but it also means you’ll have to accept some compromises when using the zoom function or bokeh mode.
Apple chose to include much of the same advanced software and image processing algorithms as in their flagship devices, and in many ways the photographic capabilities of the iPhone XR are broadly similar to those of the XS/XS Max — excellent exposure in all lighting conditions, wide dynamic range, and an excellent noise-versus-detail trade-off. The autofocus system is also excellent in all conditions.
Where the XR falls down compared to its more expensive siblings is when the addition of a second sensor coupled to a tele-lens comes into play. So don’t expect the same quality for zoom shots. Bokeh simulation in the XR’s Portrait mode isn’t brilliant either, with the pictures having something of an artificial feel; moreover, the 26mm lens’s wider field of view isn’t generally ideal for portraits, and bokeh mode doesn’t work with objects.
Compared to the Google Pixel 2, which is the best single-cam smartphone we’d tested up until now, the results are very comparable in many areas, but thanks to improved results for noise and particularly for artifacts, the iPhone XR just nudges it out of first place to become our top-ranked single-cam smartphone.

Video scores explained
The HTC U11 achieves a total video score of 84. As with the photo scores, this is calculated from the scores it achieves in a number of tests that help define its video capabilities. Let’s take a look in more detail at how it shapes up.
Exposure and contrast (83)
While the HTC U11 generally records videos with good exposure, and is capable of adjusting quickly and smoothly when light conditions change, it has a somewhat limited dynamic range, which can lead to highlights being lost in high-contrast scenes.
Color

Samsung Galaxy S10+
As with stills, the U11 records attractive colors in a range of lighting conditions. However, while the white balance is accurate, the transition that occurs when moving between different light types is too abrupt, with some overshooting and visible adjustment. Color shading is also sometimes visible, making areas that should be the same color appear different within the same scene. Footage shot outside in sunshine can also exhibit a blue cast. Meanwhile, as is often the case, footage shot in low-light conditions has a strong orange cast.
Autofocus

The phase detection AF of the HTC U11 also proves its worth in video shooting, getting subjects sharp quickly in all conditions—although there’s occasional fluctuation in focus under low-light conditions. The PDAF also tracks subjects fairly well.

Although the HTC U11 doesn’t achieve an especially good score for texture in video mode, it’s better than the Google Pixel and the iPhone 7 Plus, and it scores extremely well for noise. Interestingly, and perhaps as a consequence of temporal noise reduction coming into play in low-light conditions, videos shot indoors (that is, in mid-range light) have significantly more noise between frames than those shot in low light or outdoors. Video shot indoors and in low light also has good texture and detail, but fine details are lost in bright light.
Artifacts

Apple iPhone XS Max
The U11 performs well here in general, but glare or ringing around some light sources and judder effect (which makes movement look jerky) bring the score down a little. That said, judder effect, which is caused by using fast shutter speeds, is very common and is seen with all the smartphone cameras we have tested to date. There’s also some rolling shutter or jello effect visible with fast moving subjects, but it’s not bad.
Stabilization (84)
Overall, the HTC’s video stabilization works reasonably well, but there is often some movement visible in footage shot when standing still or walking (this is a common issue). In addition, there is sometimes a variation in the sharpness of frames in the same clip.
Conclusion Top-ranked Android single-lens phone
With the Pixel 3, Google continues to make impressive gains in image processing using computational imaging. The result is a very versatile camera that people can confidently use in most situations without any manual settings or tweaks. In particular, the Pixel 3’s Zoom and Bokeh (Portrait mode) scores have improved dramatically over the previous generation. Overall, it is tied for the top of our single-camera phones with the Apple iPhone XR and beats it, along with nearly every other phone in our database, for Video. The Pixel 3’s scores are behind those of only a handful of multi-camera flagship phones.
For all its advances in computational imaging, and improvement in Bokeh and Zoom scores, the Pixel 3 is still behind the top multi-camera phones in those areas. So for buyers looking for the ultimate in Portrait photography, and who also don’t mind the larger size of one of the multi-camera flagship models, it may be worth considering one of them as an alternative.
But for Android users who don’t want to carry a larger phone sporting multiple cameras, the Pixel 3 is the best phone camera they can buy. In terms of pulling a phone out of your pocket and pressing the shutter to let the phone camera do its best, the Pixel 3 is superlative. That’s even before adding in the value of Google’s Night Sight shooting mode, which renders some amazing images under low-light conditions. Google has also addressed another previous limitation by adding an option for recording both RAW and JPEG images from its stock camera app—a development that serious photographers will no doubt welcome.
Pros
- Good detail preservation in most tested conditions
- Fast autofocus
- Accurate target exposure for Flash images
- Well controlled fall off and good detail preservation in Flash images with or without additional light sources
- Generally good target exposure and dynamic range
- Fairly good detail preservation in Zoomed images
Pros
- Very good noise reduction, even in low light conditions
- Good detail preservation in all conditions
- Efficient motion stabilization
- Good dynamic range
- Fast, repeatable and accurate autofocus
Cons
- Some luminance noise is visible, especially in lowlight conditions
- Occasionally chooses a slightly too low exposure
- Visible color shading in lowlight conditions
- Some ghosting and color fringing are sometimes visible.
Cons
- Noticeable jello and frame shift in walking scenes
- Colors are sometimes slightly dull
- Very slight jerkiness during autofocus convergence in low light conditions.
Video scores explained
With a score of 89 for Video, the LG G8 ThinQ is a competent rather than class-leading video camera. As with its stills, the G8 generally gets the target exposure right and produces pleasant colors. In addition, the stabilization is good with static video, but it falters when there’s movement. It’s acceptable, but there’s room for improvement in this area, and it’s advisable to shoot video while standing still rather than when walking.
Perhaps the biggest surprise, however, is that the AF system, which is fast and reliable with stills, is a weak area with video. The tracking AF system is a particular problem, and the subject can drift in and out of focus when it moves. In some instances, the camera doesn’t respond to a change in subject distance so it remains out of focus. These AF failures are most common in low light, but they can also occur in bright conditions.
In our lab, the LG G8 ThinQ captures Full-HD footage with good dynamic range. However, it becomes more limited outdoors and in more everyday shooting scenarios.
Indoors and in bright light, the LG G8 ThinQ keeps both temporal and spatial noise well in check, especially chromatic noise. However, things change in low light, when higher levels of luminance noise become visible. The LG G8 ThinQ captures footage with good texture that is slightly better than the Apple iPhone XS Max and the Samsung Galaxy S10+ in bright light. In low light the results are reversed, however, and the LG’s measured acutance is somewhat lower than the competition’s.
Conclusion
The OnePlus 6T has a very respectable smartphone camera, performing as well in most categories as some of the highest-ranked phones in our database — and even surpassing their performance in a few areas. In addition to outstanding autofocus for stills, the OnePlus 6T has excellent exposure and color, and very good flash performance.
Its biggest drawbacks are its lack of optical zoom, problems with noise in low light, and some artifacts. With the exception of noise control, however, the 6T represents an improvement over its older sibling, the OnePlus 6; in short, the OnePlus 6T is a good choice as a top-end smartphone that will not cost you a fortune.

Zooming out Wide-angle capability
While not as much in demand as telephoto capability, photographers moving from standalone cameras also missed the ability to shoot wide-angle photos. LG was a pioneer in adding a second, ultra-wide camera to phones as far back as its G5 in 2016, and Asus followed suit with an ultra-wide camera in its Zenphone 5. More recently, LG and Huawei have shipped models featuring a triple rear camera that includes traditional, telephoto, and ultra-wide lenses.
Better telephoto and wide-angle images are only the beginning of what smartphone makers have accomplished with the addition of a second camera module.
Video scores explained
The Meizu Pro 7 Plus achieved a lower score of 65 in our video analysis, compared to 74 for still photos. The overall Video score is calculated using the video sub-scores to give us some insight into the device’s strengths and weaknesses when shooting moving images: Exposure (59), Color (78), Autofocus (33), Texture (41), Noise (72), Artifacts (77), and Stabilization (51).
The device generally does a good with video exposure in well-balanced lighting conditions both outdoors and indoors, with well-exposed video under constant light sources in our lab analysis. As with stills, dynamic range is limited in video exposures, with a significant loss of detail evident when shooting high-contrast scenes, and videos are underexposed in very low-light conditions. Exposure adaptation during lighting changes can be abrupt, too, and is very noticeable in panning videos, when exposure tends to fluctuate, with over-shoots resulting in incorrectly exposed video for a few seconds.
The Meizu’s main strengths for video are its rich and well-saturated colors, which are particularly pleasant in outdoor movies. Its white balance is mainly accurate, with smooth adaptation, although some color cast instabilities are evident in indoor videos with walking movements. The main weakness for video is autofocus: although fast to lock on initially, it has a tendency to drop focus during recording. Significant focus hunting results in several seconds of out-of-focus video occurring frequently in clips. Stabilization is OK with handheld capture, but residual motion is evident when capturing video with basic walking movements in all lighting conditions.
Conclusion Top ranking for now
When all the tests are verified, the scores calculated, and the perceptual analyses discussed, the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 comes out as an outstanding choice for the smartphone photography enthusiast, matching the top overall score of 94 points of the iPhone 8 Plus. Dual-cam setups offering a second telephoto zoom for portraits are a real step forward for high-end smartphone photography, and the implementation on the Note 8 is exceptional, making it the best smartphone for zoom shots we’ve tested.
Add to that extremely fast and accurate autofocus and a very competent flash unit, the Note 8 breaks new ground as the first smartphone to achieve 100 points for its photo sub-score. With new devices on the horizon from several of the key innovators for smartphone photography, will the Note 8 be able to hold onto its top spot? Time will tell.

Test summary
Securing an overall DxOMark Mobile Score of 71 points, the Meizu Pro 7 Plus produces better results for still photos, for which the device achieves a Photo score of 74. The device gets many of the basics right, with good results for exposure, color, autofocus, flash, and noise, so successful images are possible. Artifacts are a significant problem, however, particularly inconsistent sharpness across the frame, either partially or completely corrupted files displaying no picture, as well as some frames captured at a much lower resolution for no obvious reason.
The Meizu’s overall mobile score was watered down a little by its video performance, which achieved a lower score of 65. Its key strengths for video are bold and pleasant colors, with generally accurate white balance and smooth adaptation. Video exposure is mainly good in well-balanced conditions, but dynamic range is limited for both video and still photos when shooting high-contrast scenes, and videos shot in low-light conditions are noticeably underexposed. Autofocus performance is fast to lock on, but inconsistent during recording, and although stabilization is effective when you’re fairly stationary, videos on the move are a little trickier for the Meizu to handle.
Bright light
We achieved many successful pictures shooting natural scenes outdoors, with good exposure in well balanced lighting conditions, nice color rendering, and acceptable white balance. Some warmer color casts were evident, but they weren’t unpleasant, giving areas drenched in sunlight a nice glow. Dynamic range is limited when shooting in default mode, as the Meizu’s HDR mode doesn’t kick in automatically, so high-contrast scenes remained challenging, with significant loss of detail in the highlights and shadows. Texture is acceptable in static scenes outdoors, when the autofocus system finds good focus and when you don’t jab the screen too hard (more on this later), but even in the best examples, the Meizu Pro 7 Plus doesn’t capture the finest details.
Low light and Flash
In lower light conditions, exposures start to get a little dark, especially in very low light, where a loss of color saturation is evident, but in fairly bright indoor conditions, exposures remain very acceptable. When exposure is good, color rendering is generally nice, but some color shading with green tones towards the center shifting to pink at the edges is evident under some artificial light sources. Noise is well-controlled in low light, and better than that of many key competitors, with smooth rendering in homogenous areas even in very low light. Texture is pretty good in darker conditions, too, particularly in static scenes, although capturing good detail in moving subjects in low light remains elusive for the Meizu Pro 7 Plus.
Using flash as the only light source, color remains good, albeit with a slight green white balance cast. The flash is well-centered in the frame, but visible corner shading occurs, with a noticeable buildup of luminance noise towards the edges, and sharpness is fairly low. Mixing flash with additional light sources, the green white balance cast intensifies and portraits tend to suffer from the red eyes, reddish skin tones, and a loss of sharpness.
Zoom and Bokeh
With no second telephoto lens on the Meizu Pro 7 Plus for zoom, photographers must rely on conventional digital zoom to get a bit closer to subjects. At close range at 2x magnification, results are pretty good, particularly in bright light: overall detail preservation is strong, but we advise some phone support or very sturdy handling for shooting 2x zoom photos in low light. Shots at 4x in the very brightest conditions are just about acceptable, but expect to see some artifacts and to lose details. In low light at 4x, or in any lighting conditions at 8x, image quality is seriously affected.
The Meizu Pro 7 Plus features a bokeh simulation mode for blurring the background in portraits. The blur intensity is very strong, which can make for a striking effect, but it’s not very natural. The shape of the bokeh is pleasing in some areas, but depth estimation failures can result in visible artifacts around your subject.
Video scores explained
The Samsung Galaxy S9+ achieves a Video score of 91 points, making it one of the best smartphones for videography we have tested. The overall Video score is calculated using a range of sub-scores to give us some indication of the device’s pros and cons for shooting moving images: Exposure (83), Color (88), Autofocus (87), Texture (50), Noise (74), Artifacts (80), and Stabilization (86).
Unlike for stills, the S9+ is not the number one for video, but still delivers very good sub-scores all around. Its bright and vivid colors are the best for all devices tested in video mode; target exposure is good, with fast convergence in changing light conditions; and the autofocus system works reliably and swiftly in all situations. Testers also liked the stabilization; and as with stills, efficient noise reduction is one of the camera’s strong points.
On the downside, fine detail in video footage isn’t on the same level as the very best, and ringing and moiré artifacts are often visible. We also noticed occasional stepping during exposure convergence in changing light levels, and the stabilization system isn’t quite capable of eliminating all motion and shaking when walking with the camera while recording.
Conclusion
The LG G8 ThinQ’s camera is a competent rather than a stellar performer. It does most things reasonably well without really excelling or failing dramatically in any area. It produces colors that are attractive, if not always accurate, and its stills AF system is fast and effective. It also usually handles exposures well, underexposing only occasionally and even taking backlight situations in its stride unless the zoom is in use.
Its video output is similarly pleasing in many situations, but the best results require a static shooting position and constant subject distance. The inconsistent bokeh performance is a little disappointing and not up to the standard of the current leader in this area (the Huawei P30 Pro). However, if you take a few shots and don’t intend to magnify the image, chances are that there will be a satisfactory image available.
Photo pros
- Accurate target exposure indoors even with backlit scenes
- Pleasant color rendering
- Details are reproduced fairly well
- Good white balance, target exposure, and color rendering when flash is the only illumination
- Good detail in indoor zoom images
Video pros
- Effective stabilization of low-frequency motion

- Vivid and pleasant colors in most conditions
Photo cons
- Limited dynamic range
- Some color casts
- Color shading and poor white balance when flash is mixed with tungsten light
- Loss of acutance across the frame
- Noise and ringing when zooming
- Inconsistent bokeh effect
Video cons
- Significant AF failures in low light
- Visible jello effect
- Coarse spatial noise in the shadows in low light
- Noticeable frame-shift in walking scenes
Test summary
The Huawei P20 doesn’t quite reach the lofty heights of its triple-camera-equipped sister model P20 Pro, but at an overall score of 102 points, its more conventional dual-camera setup still secures the second position in our DxOMark Mobile overall ranking by a good margin over the third-placed Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus. With our second-highest ever Photo score of 107 points, the P20’s still-image performance contributes significantly to the excellent overall result. The camera delivers good detail and dynamic range in all conditions, and both bokeh simulation and the zoom feature perform on a high level.
Scoring 94 for Video, the P20 is the third-best smartphone for videography that we have tested, boasting a very efficient stabilization system, a precise autofocus, and decent recording of detail in all conditions.
Bright light
In bright light, the Huawei P20’s camera performance leaves little room to complain. The camera is capable of capturing images with good textures and a very wide dynamic range, recording good detail in highlight and shadow areas of the frame alike. Some fine grain is noticeable in blue skies, but overall, noise is very well under control, and the accurate white balance system produces a vivid and pleasant color response. We did deduct points for artifacts, however, observing some corner softness, strong ringing, purple fringing on high-contrast edges, and a bug that can occasionally result in blurry image backgrounds.
Low light and Flash
The P20 maintains its well-balanced approach to detail retention and noise reduction across all light and ISO levels, resulting in images with decent detail and low levels of noise, even when captured in very dim conditions. The autofocus doesn’t noticeably slow down or decrease in accuracy in low light, either, making the Huawei an interesting option for anyone who is frequently shooting at events, indoors, or in other low-light situations.
Using the flash on the Huawei P20 can yield decent image results, too. Flash images show decent exposure and detail, but a red-eye effect is often noticeable. We also observed quite strong color casts towards the edges of the frame, both when shooting in complete darkness and with low ambient light.
Zoom and Bokeh
The P20 does not come with a dedicated optical tele-lens, but the secondary monochrome high-resolution sensor and some computational image processing are capable of producing very good zoom results with decent detail at short (2x) zoom ranges. If you want to zoom in further, however, image detail and quality in general deteriorate quickly, and images show more grain, artifacts, and pixelation. Still, among smartphones without optical tele-lenses, the P20 achieves the best zoom performance we have seen thus far.
Thanks to the secondary monochrome sensor used for depth sensing (among other tasks), the Huawei P20 is capable of producing natural-looking results in its background-blurring bokeh mode. Some minor segmentation artifacts can be visible around the edges of the subject, but subject/background isolation is generally very nice, the amount of blur makes for a natural look, and the blur transition is pleasant. As a bonus, the mode not only works well in bright light, but can capture decent results in indoor conditions, too.
