I think Tweakers recently had a comparison between smartphone cameras. Google Pixels have their pros and cons but I don’t find it fair to compare a 650 EUR fair, modular smartphone to a 1000 EUR non-fair flagship smartphone of a major multinational. Comparing with their budget series (Pixel #a) makes more sense. Right now that would be the Google Pixel 4a, and the 4-series was disappointing AFAIK. The 5a should be released eventually (renders got leaked) in Q1/Q2 2022.
The Pixel 6 is also 540-650 euros (non import). And the cameras of the a series used to be the same (Pixel 6a will keep the old camera sensor that was used since the Pixel 2, which was in use up until the P5a). The a series just had a midrange SoC, no IP68, no glass back, no wireless charging, things like that.
Which one?
I’m using Wichaya’s ports, I usually upgrade when a new version is out. Current one I’m using is GCam_8.1.101_Wichaya_V1.5
After some months without Fairphone I have some withdrawal symptoms and would like to order FP 4. The photos look good and are fully sufficient for me. But prior to ordering one question:
Did anybody make o photo from a printed DIN-A-4 letter or a newspaper? Is this photo okay? I use very often my smartphone as a “copy-machine” and this question is important for me.
@phonefrog
Made with gcam
Cannot do it with original because I am on /e/OS
Without flash under Artificial light condition
Many thanks. These are exactly the items I normally copy. Looks good.
Order for FP 4 is on the way.
