    Honestly, mobile photography leaves way too much to be desired...
    Every year they're making strides and every year they're miles below dinky mirrorless cameras than can be had for as low as $500 bucks...

      Anonymous, 04 Oct 2017For those that don't understand how the DxO score works, it... moreHehe their score is worthless.. What do they mean by 100.. What is the difference between 99 and 100.. Will a phone get a score of 99.5?? Their scores are just opinions.. They carry no merit at all and is not comparable between phones.. Other reviewer will give different score because of different opinions.. Just compare the samples here on gsmarena and you can see the iPhone 8 is worse than the S8.. And 950/950XL are still ahead of all the androids.. And at the very top is the 808..

            [deleted post]Android fans, Samsungs etc, u are in your dreams... U have not seen a single LUMIA photo and never used Lumia... Ahahahahaha

            Android phone cams fighting at nest for SECOND best in imaging on a smartphone... ENJOY DREAMING THOUGH😂

              Well, so basically well done to Samsung. But yes, we just have to wait a bit more to see the other great contenders: Pixel 2 duo (unfortunately for the lack of the dual cam setup, most probably?), iPhone 10 & the other one, Mate 10 (Pro). That it seems that it will be really promising, with its dual f/1.6, Kirin 970, etc. We'll see.

                89 Degrees, 04 Oct 2017Funny how Galaxy Note 8 only revealed better than Iphone 8s... moreMaybe cos if they do it earlier people would come out with all kinds of shit twice when they review the iPhone 8. So now only once.

                  Anonymous, 04 Oct 2017but samsung camera lags like hell in Galaxy 8 - guess same ... moreWeird cos my friend has S8 and it opens faster than his iPhone after 8 months of usage. So it's either you were using a knock off or someone has knocked your head off.

                    AnonD-145316, 04 Oct 2017True to that! Non of these flagships comes near Lumia 950/9... moreThose Lumia camera phones are very behind of what Samsung Galaxy Note camera can do. If you don't have one try in a store for you dissipate the doubts.

                      Lumia 950 XL remain untouched by the latest smartphone camera from android & ios oem's... samsungs, iphones have yet to really catch-up on the imaging prowess of this Lumia phone.

                            For those that don't understand how the DxO score works, it DOES NOT stop at 100. The number is really just a number, not a scale from zero to 100.

                              but samsung camera lags like hell in Galaxy 8 - guess same will be in Note8. Real user knows how pathetic to open camera after 1/2 month daily usage. They give 5-start hardware and 0-start software to support them.

                              But no one gives real usages review. All blind reviewer get a new phone and no app installed and tap here and there , show specs - that all. Even cnady crash saga runs like hell in y galaxy s8.

                              I want to sell this f-device and buy for the Pixel / iPhone 8 plus (I guess pixel will be better).

                                  How can you give 100 mark when there's a flaw, if not flaws??
