Still makes me laugh seeing "Apple" and "innovation" in one sentence. Perhaps in the previous decade, now they just keeping up with the current trends (and poorly at that).

                    AnonD-426311, 28 Sep 2016Site who gives Lumia 1020 score 74 and same time to iPhone ... moreThat's the point.DXOmark uses standardised test to evaluate certain parametars of the image quality.Sure they knows their job and don't want to underestimate their effort,but lab tests and shooting in reallity is two different things!
                    Laica cameras had controversaly low score in dxomark,yet they produce one of the world best photos in reality.You can't blame dxomark for this.Their tests show certain parametars which may or may not be of such an importance when it comes to producing "great" photo.
                    I guess after all... it all depend of the photographer,the subject,the moment and the light... together,and camera as a technical means comes after all of this.

                        Anonymous, 28 Sep 2016If that statement is completely true then apple should be on top?No? Camera is combination of many different things, for example Apple got very low scores for flash.

                        That statement was about colours

                            For many years, consumer cameras and monitors have settled for an easy-to-reproduce standard for color reproduction, called sRGB. High-end devices, however — including DSLRs, Digital Cinema projectors, high-end monitors, and now even smartphones — are now able to record and display a much-wider range of colors. Professional photographers and movie makers have long built color-managed workflows to create output superior to sRGB, but most consumers have had to settle for less, since their cameras and phones have been restricted to recording images using only the sRGB color gamut.
                            Now, Apple is changing that."

                                  Its finally nice to really see what that wider color gamut for camera really does, that picture about girl in source link looks so good and vivid. That red background is really popping out from the screen.

                                  Didn't expected that big difference.

                                  This takes mobile photography to whole new level.
