To put Google’s claims to the test, we decided to see how the camera stacks up against the current leaders in the field: the Galaxy S7 and the new iPhone 7.
When Google announced the Pixel a few weeks ago, the company sounded extremely confident in the phone’s camera. Brian Rakowski, Google’s vice president of product management, called the camera “best in class,” and backed up that claim by revealing that DxOMark — which rates the quality of smartphone and DSLR cameras — had given the Pixel’s camera an 89, the highest score ever awarded to a phone. “This isn’t only the best camera we’ve ever made, it’s the best smartphone camera anyone has ever made,” Rakowski said.
