The three takeaways for me were: That the three flagships' cameras are competitive now; that many of the differences are in software; and that some of the preferences are subjective. It seems to me that at some point there will be be 'camera soft profiles' to mimic the look of competitors' phones. For my basic flagship camera needs I would be ok with any of these cameras. Beyond the practical side, Google has the most software toys to play with.

Thanks for another excellent comparison, Chris. It's getting to the point where all of these flagships are so close, they're basically trading blows in specific scenarios.

Upgraded from the Mi 10T Pro to the pixel 8 pro. Best decision. Thank you for your Mi 10T pro review. The phone served me well for 3 years.

Great content as always.

So glad that you not only took the time to do the video comparisons, but did them simultaneously instead of one after the other, like most do. Having them right at the start of the video was also nice. So many reviewers just mention videos at the end as almost an afterthought

Thank you Chris! That front facing camera of the Pixel is really bad, but theoretically the overdone contrast could be easily fixed via software updates. The Pixel is good.

This is great comparison. I think it's comparing apples to oranges with the S23 Ultra 10X periscope lens to to 5X zoom lens on iP15 Pro and P8 Pro. The 3X lens on the S23 Ultra might be a better comparison.

Only 1.1K ?! Such a professional and well put, detailed, real-life and no silliness and excessive publicity content :) I mean this and pretty much all of your videos :) Bravo and thank-you ! :)

I think you should've compared Samsung's 3x zoom lens as well in video and night shots to make it more fair. Samsung has the advantage of two zoom lenses, with the other two phones only having one. Of course the 10x is going to be worse in the night shots, because it has lower aperture. But i think the 3x would keep up well with the other phones.

[Cable-Tie]

Agreed with the over sharpening on the P8 Pro. But when I take the 50MP RAW and export them in Lightroom, they look the best. Great quality RAWs.

Wow, this was a very good comparison video! I think it was a close call between all three. The pixel is certainly no slouch, but it really comes down to low light capability vs. daylight capability. Overall, I think I like the pixel for No. 1 and iPhone No. 2. Also, I can’t help but factor in the other smart features of the pixel that seems to overpower the iPhone. This is coming from an Apple products consumer since 1983, so I’m certainly not playing favorites. ✌️

Another year where all flagships looks really similar in pictures, and another year where iPhone is still two light years ahead in video…

[vikinnorway]

Differense now is so small i would never choose my phone because of cameras, choose the phone you like and camera will be great imo. Great review!

[duxrosendale]

S23 is the clear winner here, 95% of the time you'll take a picture of yourself or somebody and people look better in S23's shots.

[adithyasatheesh]

Damn, that iPhone's making the other two look like toys. I have an s23 ultra and I believe it's about time to jump ship.

[grandemations]

Thank you so much! I'm ready to get my Pixel 8 pro now 😍

[JFar_Exe]

What a step up from Google pixels this year. Lookin good in most of the scene🔥

[DarknessAlchemist]

I think a video comparing the full sensor images of each flagship would be interesting. 50MP for Pixel, 48MP for iPhone, and whatever it is for the S23 Ultra.

[lokrj]

Not only does the front camera of Pixel 8 make you look you haven't brushed teeth for 3 years, it also makes like you haven't slept for weeks 😂

[pmonteiro]

Great review! I Have a Pixel 8 Pro and i like the performance. Is a new phone with large progression in development.

[Bilal.Hussain.Shaikh]

Don't know why but day time with pixel front camera video your eyes looks like panda 🐼 eyes, or could be blood lost eye 😂
