TBH picture quality these days is good enough that the normal consumer would be pressed to find the differences. Flagship Samsung sensors have usually been on par with Sony's but Samsung doesn't sell them to other manufacturers until recently the GN1 was strangely reserved for vivo and not Samsung themselves. What's more interesting to see is midrangers getting better in the camera department such as the Mi 10i. Fitting a 1" sensor in a phone is still a pipe dream, only Panasonic did once. If Samsung could achieve this, I applaud them.

Anonymous, 09 Jan 2021Yet the quality of Xperia 12mp camera is bad compared to No... moreI'm pretty sure the S20Ultra is priced higher, so the Xperia 1 & 5 II are most likely competing with S20+ and S20. Honestly the camera on the S20+ is worse than the OnePlus 8 which is saying something. I've compared both in person, in terms of overall look. Yes, the main lens. Now, coming to the Xperia it can do 4K 120fps video which the Samsung can not. It's because they are going for different things. Sony is going for speed, such as 20fps, faster and better AF. Just look at the disaster S20 series are in AF. It's more about reliability on Xperia and speed, whereas Samsung is targeting higher output in details and zoom.
On the flip side S20 has much better zoom, more details on photographs (though colour accuracy is questionable at times) and an amazing night mode. It's about preference at this point, the more competition there are more companies innovating.
So continue using your smartphones and don't pick on brands that you dislike. This is worse than play station Vs Xbox.
It's great Samsung is innovating their own way and Sony their own. Hopefully it means better cameras in smartphones for the masses, rather than iterative upgrades.
Both do need improving, Samsung with its cracked camera glass, slow read out speed and colour science. Sony with night mode, zoom and higher MP.

Big year for their cameras?! Just like last year, when their S20 ULTRA could not even focus? Could not even take proper shots without being blur. Samsung is a joke, no one trusts them anymore. We dont even have expectations, we just know its gonna be more of the same, if not, a bad problematic product

AnonD-973296, 09 Jan 2021then where does the ISOCELL sensor come in all this?ISOCELL is a technology of sensor, not the software that uses it or combines the pixels. It's a combination of several construction features patented by Samsung.
The combination of pixels is being called "tetracell" or "nonacell" (four or nine pixels binned as one).

RAW is used to check how good sensor is.
You want a much smaller sensor to do better ? LOL ...
How about we ask a Sony RX100 to beat A7R4 ?

S20 Ultra should easily outperform S20 in image quality.
It does not.
Maybe 3% better, should be 50% better.

They only messed it up on the S20 ultra because of AF problems.
Note 20 ultra fixed it.
