No wonder many people are interested, how many megapixels are the main and frontal camera on the iPhone. Probably not for anyone no secret that it is on the iPhone camera every day millions of photos around the world.

According to statistics, it has already been proven that it is an iPhone is the most popular device in the world for photographing. This is not surprising, because today camera iPhone. There will be better some soaps.

Number of megapixels on all iPhone released

For all the time, twelve phones models have already been released and I would like to consider both the front and the back chamber on the iPhones pairly. Then you will see all.

Camera on iPhone 2G, 3G, 3GS

The most first Apple phones were not very famous for the camera and they had no quality. This is not surprising, because then there was only 2007 and the cameras could boast only that only Sony Ericsson.

Moreover, the bus focus appeared only in the third generation, that is, in 3GS. Then it was just cool and the quality of the photos was much improved.

• 2G: Rear camera 2 MP;
• 3G: Rear camera 2 MP;
• 3GS: Rear Camera 3 MP;

According to the list, you can observe that there is no speech about any front chamber. The word selfie is not yet invented and you would not see people who photograph themselves and food.

Camera on iPhone 4, 4s

The following two phones made an incredible jump and now millions of photos will be made on the cameras of these two phones.


Front chambers have already appeared in these two phones. Basic cameras got outbreaks, and in the iPhone 4S even appeared face recognition.

• 4: Rear chamber 5 MP, front VGA (0.3 mp);
• 4S: Rear chamber 8 MP, front VGA (0.3 Mp).

At night, the photos were not very good and the outbreak could hardly help here. But during the day, the iPhone 4S makes very impressive photos even today.

Camera on iPhone 5, 5S, 5C

In the next generation, there was no particular jerk in pixels and the phone acquired a very similar vil for the past generation, only with a more enlarged screen.


Selfi begins to appear, because in 2010 instagram already appears in 2010. No wonder in these models improved the front chamber.

• 5: Rear chamber 8 MP, front 1.2 Mp;
• 5s: Rear chamber 8 MP, front 1.2 megapixel;
• 5C: Rear camera 8 MP, front 1.2 megapixel.

A double flash appears in the iPhone 5S, which should improve night photos. In general, the quality of photos is not changing much, compared with the last generation.

Camera on iPhone 6, 6s, 6 Plus, 6s Plus

Still, the time comes when Apple begins to produce shovels. It seems that cameras should instantly get more megapixels, but this happens only in the 6s-generation.

In 6 iPhone, the camera was not particularly changed, everything is approximately as in 5s. But a big screen, begins to show its advantages and consider photos much more fun and more convenient.

• 6, 6 PLUS: Rear chamber 8 MP, front 1.2 Mp;
• 6S, 6S Plus: Rear chamber 12 MP, front 5 megapixel.

For many years, the number of megapixels changes only in the iPhone 6S. Finally, you can still do better than selfie also with the selection of outbreak.

Camera on iPhone SE, 7, 7 Plus

So, the next update of the iPhone pleased with the cameras and now in the younger version we have a stabilizer, and in the elder now instead of one, as many as two cameras.


There are many chips that help to make clearer photos in the dark. Photos are simply amazing.

• SE: Rear chamber 12 MP, front 1.2 Mp;
• 7: Rear chamber 12 MP, front 7 MP;
• 7 Plus: Double Rear Camera 12 MP, Front 7 MP.

As a bonus, I would like to mention before the released iphone SE. This is an updated 5s with a filling from 6s, if anyone has heard. His cameras are also present in this list.

Camera on iPhone X, 8, 8 Plus

These smartphones are again pleasing to us very high shooting quality. If you look at the number of megapixels, then the situation is like last year.


However, it was done quite big job And now we have a leader. It is a dozen and its diaphragm tele-object now ƒ / 2.4. For comparison, 7 and 8 plus - ƒ / 2.4.

• X: Rear chamber - double, 12 MP with wide-angle and telephoto lens, front - 7 megapixel;
• 8: Rear chamber 12 MP, front 7 MP;
• 8 Plus: Rear camera - double, 12 MP with wide-angle and telephoto lens, front 7 megapixel.

Perhaps the brightest update, it was the ability to record 4k to all models. The younger model and the second camera in X is now with stabilization.

RESULTS

Now you know what cameras on all generations of Apple smartphones. The quality of cameras is very excellent and in the future, we will not need ordinary cameras, except for professional shooting.

OPPO F5 - Best Self Camera

The first model in the review is not a completely smartphone, but already - or "Fablet".

The screen with a diagonal of 6 inches allows you to view video with the extension of FullHD and even actually distinguish such a quality from the familiar HD phones.

But the main to the smartphone is still the characteristics of the cameras:

• the main device received a resolution of 16 MPIX. and allows you to do good photos and with good, and under insufficient lighting;
• the frontal matrix provides the production of 20 megapixel calf - there is no such result for any other smartphone;
• additional features of the camera for selfie - intelligent filming technology, thanks to which the pictures are obtained more than kid.

The remaining parameters of the OPPO F5 smartphone are not too impressive, although not disappointing.

Its cost is far from budget - 25 thousand rubles., The amount of memory and processor performance for 2017 can be called medium, 3200 mAh battery for a 6-inch screen is a bit small and allows you to actively use the gadget no longer than 5-6 hours.

Smartphone with 16 MP SONY XPERIA XA Ultra Dual self-camera

On the other hand, the cost of the phone is only $ 110. And the front camera received not only a large lens, but also a fairly efficient flash.

The target audience of such a gadget can be a user who will only use it for calls and photographs.

Convenient shooting, but weak battery - model ZTE Blade S7

The indicators of the chamber for selfie from the Blade S7 model to some extent turned out to be even better than that of the front device.

At least, it is more convenient to take off with it, and the resolution of the matrix has become exactly the same - 13 MPIX.

It looks good in the list of characteristics of the phone and FullHD-screen with a 5-inch diagonal and an 8-core processor, but the memory will seem modern user already standard.

Among the others interesting functions You can mark a dactyloscopic sensor.

By minuses include a small capacity of the battery and a fairly high cost compared to similar on the characteristics (except the front camera) models.

Budget model with good parameters - Leagoo ELITE 1

Not a few more years ago, LEAGOO launched a smartphone with cameras at 13 and 16 MPIX. - Not bad indicators for a model worth about 13,000 rubles.

If desired, it can be called almost budget - especially, given the memory of 3 and 32 GB (RAM and ROM, respectively) and the screen with a resolution of FullHD.

Attracts attention and elegant design, and a separate button for photographing - comfortable feature, complemented by a good flash and automatic focus.

The gadget can be called a telephone for selfie, and just a "camerafone", as it allows you to do good photos on the main device.

From the fall, it protects special glass, and from the manufacturer improves ease of use. And one of the few drawbacks can be called a 2400 mAh battery charge, which is unlikely enough even for half a day of active use.

Good selfie and impressive characteristics - Huawei P9 Plus

Despite the resolution of only 8 MPIX. (Not so high on the background of other competitors from the rating), the self-camera model P9 Plus makes excellent photos.

The main one also copes with the tasks set - especially since it is double (12 + 12 MPIX.).

The automatic focus is on each of the devices, which allows you to increase the clarity of the image.

Not bad opportunities for shooting are accompanied by high characteristics.

For 22,000 rubles (not the lowest cost - but for this flagship it is worth paying it) The buyer of the smartphone will receive one of the most powerful KIRIN 955 processors, and 4 GB of RAM, and 64 GB ROM.

Not good parameters and the phone battery - 3400 mAh for a 5-inch diagonal screen will be enough for 8-12 hours, depending on the tasks being performed.

Quality from ASUS - model Zenfone 3

According to the compliance with representatives of the company is one of the best camerasafona - and with respect to both the pictures of the photo taken on the usual chamber and the qualities of Selfie.

Testing the device and the comparison of the pictures that resulting with it showed that, if not the first place, it deserves it in the top ten.

Among other parameters, the model should pay attention to the memory (3/4 GB of RAM and 32 or 64 GB ROM) and screen resolution.

Quite acceptable capacity at the model battery. The only thing that spoils the impression is the price that reaches almost $ 300.

Smartphone for Selfie with Water Protection - HTC Desire Eye

Front device for shooting with a resolution of 13 MPIX. - Pretty standard solution for self-fifth end of 2017.

Cost of $ 250, FullHD resolution, 4 core processor and 5.2-inch screen are also average parameters for a modern phone.

A little disappointing memory - 2 GB RAM and 16 GB ROM, since a more profitable purchase can be made for a similar amount.

Target audience Gadget - Users preferring a medium-level smartphone with a good self-chamber models and functionality, but with small capabilities for shooting.

It is worth noting that for their money such buyers will also receive the protection of the phone from the water, and the separate button for photographing.

Selfiephone with 6 GB RAM - OnePlus 3

The main advantage is the operational memory of 6 GB - according to this indicator, he is superior to any modern selfofone.

The shooting indicators of the Selfie from the gadget are not so high - the camera received permission of only 8 MPIX - but still noticeably better than most which you can buy for $ 400- $ 450.

Snapshots with anterior chamber are obtained by clear and sharp - even with not quite good lighting or in a building.

The battery parameters allow you to photograph using OnePlus 3 for several hours in a row - in order for the ROM to 64 GB and the battery for 3000 mAh ended during the day the phone owner will have to do not make one hundred pictures.

Smartphone for shooting in nightclubs - Samsung Galaxy S8

Model "Samsung" can not be called a cheap smartphone - but his cameras allow you to do good photosgraphs, even despite not too large numbers (8 and 12 MPIX.).

The manufacturer even claims that this self-camera is not inferior to the characteristics of the device to - however, the Apple model is located on the adjacent line of the rating.

Practice shows that it is best to shoot with the best time in the dark time when the photos are much better in comparison with the pictures of other brands, even Chinese.

In the afternoon, the indicators of the model are not too different from most other competitors from the review.

Smartphone for underwater selfie - iPhone 7

The seventh iPhone, like several previous models of Apple, is distinguished by good identifies.

Even by the fact that the camera has a resolution of 7 MPIX., The quality of shooting is not inferior to some 13 megapixel devices.

In addition, the smartphone received an effective flash that allows you to take off at night.

In general, the indicators of its front camera do not even completely comply with the rating requirements - 5 MPIX. A little lower than required from the cameraphon.

The dimensions of RAM and ROM (2 and 16 GB) are not impressive.

In addition, 5 MPIX. Lenovo provides quality no worse than 8 megapixel matrices of self-chambers of a number of other manufacturers.

And with the help of such a battery, a device with a 5-inch screen can operate up to a month in standby mode or up to 15 hours active use.

Good selfie and video for a small price - Doogee Shoot 1

The Shoot 1 model from the Chinese dogee manufacturer is an excellent choice for buyers of budgetary devices. Cameras on 8 MPIX. With built-in LED flash enough for selfie, and a 13 megapixel device will provide nice photos normally.

The main advantage of the gadget - Cost of 95 dollars.

Second plus lies in decent capacity Battery, third - in 5.5-inch screen.

And, although the quality of the shots obtained by Shoot 1 is still one of the lowest among selfophyphones, among budget models, it shows the best results, while possessing not a processor and memory.

Many manufacturers very carefully "lick" rear cameras for smartphones, completely scoring on the frontal. For example, the new Huawei P30 Pro with the world's best rear sensors received a front camera without autofocus, which is characteristic of budget models. From here and low score and only 5th place in the Dxomark rating.

1st place - Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus

The new flagship from Samsung received a double front camera, which is in the cutout of the screen:

• Main: 10 mp, focal length 25 mm, pixel size 1.22 μm; Diaphragm F / 1.9, autofocus Dual Pixel.
• Additional: Sensor of depth with a resolution of 8 mp, pixel size 1.12 μm, aperture F / 2.2.

DXOMARK engineers tested over 1500 images from the Samsung S10 + camera and came to the conclusion that the best "Frontalka" is used here. In almost all scenarios, it transmits pleasant skin shades, it is distinguished by the exact balance of the white, the correct color rendition and a wide dynamic range even when shooting with weak light. However, even here DD is not perfect, but experts in DXO were surprised at how the phone processes high-contrast scenes.

The smartphone also gives high-quality video with accurate colors, proper and fast focusing, stabilization. The camera is also characterized by a good color exposure on faces.

An example of video recording

Plus, Samsung S10 + offers the best AMOLED-screen with HDR10 + support, water protection, a productive 8-nm Exynos 9820 processor, reversing charging and a number of other cool technologies characteristic of flagships. This makes it the best choice in 2019 not only for shooting Selfie, but in general.

2nd place - Google Pixel 3

The American flagship is traditionally equipped with cool cameras. Moreover, the rate here is made on "Frontali" in the first place, since there are 2 cameras in front of here, just one.

PIXEL 3 on the left; PIXEL 3 XL - Right

Characteristics of Selfie Camera:

• The main sensor is Sony IMX353 size 1/4 ", 8 mp, aperture F / 1.8, a focal length of 28 mm, phase autofocus.
• Additional - 8 MP, fixed focus, diaphragm F / 2.2, focal length 19 mm, wide-angle lens.

Thanks to one of the best image processing algorithms, Google Pixel 3 ensures the capture of parts in bright and dark areas of the high-contrast scene at the same time. PIXEL 3 focusing system is one of the best - Pixel 3 is able to hold objects in the focus when shooting at a distance of 30-120 cm. And even when shooting with self-stick, the smartphone gives high-quality frames with parts and the right depth of field. It is ideal for group selfie.

Plus, the device runs on the basis of a powerful 10-nm of the SNAPDRAGON 845 processor, is equipped with a high-quality OLED-screen, and most importantly - the best softe of Google without a third-party shell is first updated to fresh versions of Android.

3 place - Samsung Galaxy Note 9

Another "monster" from Samsung is represented in August 2018, now confidently keeps the Top Camera Dxomark and has one of the world's best frontal cameras with the following characteristics.

8 MP, 1 / 3.6 ", pixel size 1.22 microns, focal length 25 mm, aperture F / 1.7, autofocus for video and photos, auto HDR, shooting 1440p at 30 fps.

In the Dxomark rating "Frontalka" SAMSUNG NOTE 9 scored as many points as Pixel 3 received, so there are almost equal cameras here, however, Google has an additional wide-angle lens in front than note 9, hence the third place in the ranking.

The camera on this flagship with most scenarios is characterized by a good exposure, including complex scenes, has a wide dynamic range, which is clearly visible on the example of high-contrast scenes. The exact balance of white and the correct transmission of colors provide natural skin tone, separately it is worth highlighting HDR images that have improved compared to the predecessor Galaxy S9 +.

Also, Samsung Note 9 in portrait mode correctly isolates the focus object in the presence of a complex background, which indicates the high-quality image processing algorithms. Let me remind you that there is no depth sensor here, and the definition of depth and the defocusing of the background is carried out exclusively by the programmatically.

Plus, Samsung Note 9 offers a 10-nm Exynos 9810 processor, one of the world's best amoled screens, which was considered the most cool before the release of the iPhone XS Max and Samsung S10, Bluetooth stylus, solid autonomy.

4th place - Huawei P30 Pro

This flagship fell on 1st place for the cool rear chamber with a unique periscopic telephoto lens and a function of a 5-fold optical approximation, and in terms of the quality of the selfie, it is weak and inferior to Korean and American smartphones.

• Permission of 32 megapixel
• Pixel size 0.8 microns.
• Focal length 28 mm, no autofocus, F / 2.0 diaphragm.
• Full HD video shooting function at 30 FPS, HDR.

Experts in DXO when analyzing 1500 images will allocate a good exposure, wide dynamic range and accurate colors, however, a total of a "frontal" estimate is lower than the estimates of the flagship listed above.

Huawei P30 Pro has shown well in high-contrast scenes and when shooting with weak lighting - you can be confident in the exact exposure on the faces and the safety of parts in the bright and dark areas of the scene.

Since in front of only one chamber, then in portrait mode, the definition function of the depth and defocus is carried out completely programmatically. The depth assessment is not ideal, so sometimes the smartphone blurs the object itself in the foreground. Also the dynamic range of narrow when shooting in portrait mode, which is manifested in an over bright background.

Smartphone problem - focus. Since there is no autofocus, then the smartphone clearly loses to competitors equipped with front cameras with AF. However, among all phones without autofocus Huawei P30 Pro are the best, and it is good. If you want to get a frame with high sharpness and details on your face, then you need to keep the phone at a distance of 55 cm on behalf of the face. If you remove from a distance of 30 or 120 cm, the focus object (person) is blurred. Therefore, using selfie sticks on P30 Pro is undesirable.

5th place - Xiaomi Mi Mix 3

Completes the first five flagship from Xiaomi, which showed high shooting quality including on rear cameras. The smartphone is made in an unusual design, and here to make selfie, you need to move the screen down - it is convenient, although some such a solution like it. But there are no monobrials in the phone, cutout on the screen and thick frames.

Characteristics of the front camera:

• Main: 25 megapixel, 1 / 2.8 ", pixels of 0.9 μm, aperture F / 2.2.
• Additional: Sensor of depth, 2 megapixel.
• Video shooting in Full HD / 30 FPS.

As in Huawei P30 Pro, there is also no autofocus here, so the smartphone gives good sharpness only at close range, selfie sticks for the smartphone are contraindicated. However, the quality is generally high - parts are displayed in dark and bright sections of the scene, which indicates a wide dynamic range. Color reproduction is also acceptable, but there is a small white care to yellow / green shades when shooting on the street.

Once upon a time, the ambitious manufacturers of smartphones said that compact cameras will soon be outlived from the market. It happened before our eyes. Today everyone knows that the camera even in an inexpensive smartphone removes no worse than the soappet. Next stage - catch up quality mirrors. While it sounds not quite real, but new smartphones prove that this goal will also be reached sooner or later. The market has a lot of decent models that allow you to create photos of very and very high quality. We analyzed the existing offer and selected smartphones for our readers with the best camera 2018. Looking in advance, we note that all these camera phones stand very and very expensive, but the cameras in them, really, luxurious.

When it comes to an assessment of the camera, the question involuntarily arises, how to understand that in one smartphone it is cool, and in the other - worse. First of all, it is necessary to look at the specifications:

• number of megapixels. Forget the rule "the more, the better." It has long been not so, but marketers and sellers for some reason continue to mislead users. When it comes to tiny (compared to the mirror), a chamber in a smartphone, a large number of MPs may even harm. 12-13 MP with heads enough to create wonderful pictures. It is good that many companies understood and focused on improving other parameters;
• diaphragm. To get a good snapshot, the camera needs light. It hits the matrix and forms an image. Light through a diaphragm, and the broader the apertures of the diaphragm are wide open, the greater the chances of getting a clear beautiful picture even in conditions that are far from ideal. The characteristics of the diaphragm denotes so f / 2.0 or F2.0. The numerical indicator below, the better. For example, the camera with F / 2.2 and F / 1.9 will be equally good to shoot in the afternoon, but in the evening with the module with f / 1.9 pictures will be better. Today, the standard even for inexpensive smartphones - F / 2.0, and put in the flagships modules onf./1.8 and evenf./1.6. By the way, a wide aperture, even in the absence of a second module, will allow you to create bokeh effects;
  
• diagonal matrix. What she is more, the better. That's all you need to know the usual user. In contact with the details optional. The diagonal of the matrix is \u200b\u200bindicated by a fractional number, and the smaller the figure under the fraction, the better. For example, the camera is 1/3 "- normally for the budget class, 1 / 2.9" and 1 / 2.8 "- for the average, and 1 / 2.5" - for flagships, but there are often exceptions. Recently, manufacturers prefer not to specify this characteristic at all;
• pixel size. Many stupid pixels can not lead to improved photo quality, but, on the contrary, become the cause of fuzzy and appearance of noise. Therefore better let the matrix be less than larger pixelsthan a lot of small. Pixel size Manufacturers usually indicate. For budget and secondary smartphones, this indicator should be 1.22 microns and more, in flagships - at least 1.25 microns, and better - 1.4 and even 1.5 microns;
• type of autofocus. Autofocus is contrasting (the most primitive, used in very cheap smartphones), phase (in the afternoon it works fast, problems are possible at night) and laser. The latter is the most modern and accurate, always running fast;
  
• optical stabilization - The key to high-quality snapshots of dynamic scenes. The possibility is invaluable when shooting a video and come in handy all those who often tremble hands;
• number of lenses. Many believe that they are more, the better. Not. Better when lenses are high-quality, but it is possible to judge this only by test pictures;
• camera sensor manufacturer. Modules show themselves well Sonyas well as from Samsung (The company makes sensors better than those that sell to the side). A little worse, but acceptable removal sensors from Omnivision.. Sony sensors were most popular, which are marked as IMX in the camera characteristics as an IMX and a three-digit number, for example, the IMX first digit indicates a generation, the second says about the class of photosensor (the more, the better), the third - about the version of the execution;
  
• additional main camera Performed in several options. Option number 1 is a black and white sensor that better captures the light and allows you to create better pictures in insufficient illumination. Option number 2 - Camera with a wide viewing angle, so that in the frame to squeeze as much as possible landscape. Option number 3 - The second camera is used to zoom.

It also happens that the camera C, it would seem, perfect parameters makes, to put it mildly, not very good pictures. This means that the manufacturer did not pay due attention automation, optics and software algorithms. Preferably before buying personally evaluate examples of the photo in different conditions of shooting. It often happens that with a fairly mediocre characteristics of the characteristics, the smartphone makes excellent pictures - this means that the developer has not been lazy to finish the program shell. But when the manufacturer takes a good sensor, but kills his lenses or problems in Softe, very disappointing.

From theory go to practice. We found the best camera phones, among them chose the best and prepared for you rating. When analyzing, samples of pictures were used, as well as the opinion of the authoritative resourceDxomark.which tests the cameras on their own algorithm and puts them in the scores. Go!

Smartphones with the best camera 2018

SAMSUNG GALAXY S9 Plus

Literally a few weeks ago, the new flagship from Samsung was presented byMWC. 2018. The model received a very cool camera and was already named after a smartphone with the best camera in the world. And Galaxy S9 Plus, and a little more compact Galaxy S9 got the main module with a variable diaphragm. Previously, no one did. Yes, they tried, but Samsung was the first to embody the idea of \u200b\u200blife. What gives us variable diaphragm fromf./2.4 to a / 1.5? This feature comes close to the smartphone camera to the SLR and allows it to adapt to any climbing conditions. When light, the petals of the diaphragm closes, so as not to light the frame and pass the depth, which is especially important when shooting landscapes. When dark, the petals are maximized to let the light. Tests show that at night, the device removes, indeed, much better than all other smartphonesEven better than the main competitor - iPhone X. The resolution of the matrix is \u200b\u200b12 meters, there is optical stabilization and phase autofocus.

Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus, unlike Galaxy S9, received additional main chamber With a resolution of 12 mp and a diaphragm F / 2.4. The second module is required for 2-card optical zoom. The size of the pixel of the main chamber is 1.4 microns, in an additional one - 1 μm. The smartphone can shoot a video in slow motion mode, received portrait mode and superlit copes with all shooting scenarios. The front camera with 8 MP also knows how to blossie the background and makes excellent images (F / 1.7 aperture, 80 degree viewing angle).

About Galaxy S9 + you can talk long since it one of the most advanced smartphones today.He received an exynos 9810 8-core processor with a frequency of 2.7 GHz: very powerful, but such resource-intensive applications, wherever this "stone" showed itself 100%, have not yet come up with. The screen received a diagonal of 6.2 inches, performed using Super AMOLED technology, resolution 2960 * 1440. RAM in stock 6 GB, the main - 64/128/256 GB, there is a slot for memory cards to 400 GB. The model has been protected against moisture and dust in the IP68 class, equipped with a scanner of the face and retina, knows how to do Ar Emoji - Animoji analogue in the iPhone. We will add stereo speakers here, quick charging (battery capacity of 3500 mAh) and a chic appearance, and get perhaps the best smartphone today. It costs version 6/64 costs about $ 1,200.

Apple iPhone X.

Apple smartphones always feature good cameras. Jubilee and revolutionary model iPhone. X Only confirmed this rule. Before the release of Galaxy S9 + (and after it), the camera in the iPhone X will serve as an example for comparison. Apple traditionally pays attention to the optimization of software, but everything is in order with iron. Rear Camera - DoubleBoth modules received 12 megapions. One of them is a wide-angle with a diaphragm F / 1.8, the second - telephoto lens F / 2.4. Both modules have optical stabilization.. There is a portrait mode, a 2-fold optical zoom. The camera behaves well in all shooting scenarios, but the Galaxy S9 + is inferior at night. The front module received a resolution of 7 MP, a diaphragm F / 2.2, and the screen backlight can be used as a flash.

The main feature of the new iPhone is "bang" from above. The attitude towards it is ambiguous, so we will not comment on this chip. We only note that after Apple, many Chinese companies have found the clones of iPhone X at a very different price. AMOLED-screen received a diagonal of 5.8 inches and resolution 2436 * 1125, the highest contrast and brightness. Smart processor, protection against water and dust according to IP67 standard, face recognition technology and other more or less useful features make a gadget smartphone Dreams. There is a dream (version by 64 GB) about $ 1350.

Google Pixel 2.

The flagship from Google is distinguished not only by compact size, but also conservatism, and this is not at all minus. The company did not use fashion trends, such as a double camera and an extended screen. However, the photo smartphone creates excellent, and many experts are confident that this is the best cameraphone on this moment. The main module was resolution 12.3 Mp (F / 1.8 diaphragm, pixel size 1.4 microns, diagonal of matrix 1 / 2.6 "), phase and laser autofocus, optical and electronic stabilization. On paper, everything is perfect, and in fact it is not worse. Camera do any scene, snapshots are really luxurious - photographers must evaluate.
