Not just because I happen to own an XZ, but also because of my photographic eye (developed whilst doing a btec in photography, taught by published photographers), I'd say the xz n S7 were pretty tied.
In real world photos, I'd say the xz was fantastic, I wouldn't have stuck with it if I felt otherwise.
Apart from people asking me to take SNAPS (PROPER PHOTOS ARE TAKEN ON A PROPER CAMERA)on my phone, they also compliments my posted photos.
Also, remember the VAST MAJORITY of phone photos are viewed on a phone.
Maybe on a VDU pictures may come out differently, but looking at the test images on my handset, I'd still say it was close between the S7 n XZ.

O have owned S7e and yes I know and I admit S7e camera is superb. But it has a problem in my opinion. It takes pictures that the colors seem they had been painted. It does give sharp images but unnatural colors(compating to itself it is natural! But when others come in, this problem goes right into your eyes. G5, I haven't used by my self but diffefent camera samples in defferent websites, says that G5 washes the colors out. iPhone I never have liked it(not coz it us a bad phone, just don't like it. Kind of personal taste) so I never paid much attention to it therefore I will not talk about it. And XZ I traded in my S7e for an XZ with a friend last week. I did that coz I was completely satisfied with Z5 (battery life, camera, screen qualifying, and performance power are important to me) and let's admit guys, sony has the best battery life. It's been about 50 minutes I am surfing the web with my XZ on 4G cellular net, but only 8 percent battery loss. I like the camera on the XZ. Colors are natural, live, sharp and bright enough for a cellphone. But I have one problem here. Even in datkest situations, like in a room with no windows or lights at night and no way for moon light to come in, I get noiseless pictures. How did U guys get these noisy photos? It is impossible that XZ would record colors like that. I am not trying to say XZ is the best. No. Nowadays, all phobes are great. There's just advantages and disadvantages. I like XZ camera. And my dear lovely friends from any brand fans. Let me tell U sth. My major is photography, I am 5th semester student in B.A.
All sharp to the end (over sharpened) and completely noiseless photos does NOT mean that the camera is good. Actually a photo needs a bit of softness and it needs a pinch of darkness. Photo isn't meant to be super bright. In the end, a good camera comparison, is when they take a picture with a high end professional DSLR as the source photo, then check and ask for opinions that wich photo of mobile cameras are closest to the DSLR! And of course phones name should not be given so trolls and flamed fans could not ruin it. Even in camera (compact digital, dslr, handy-cam, video and etc.) comparisons they have a source photo or video taken with a high end and best qualtiy known professional camera by a professional photographer or cameraman. Not like this just point, shoot, judge!!!

"A" Samsung and Apple promoter =.=
Sony has good camera from the pictures shown above
but when zooming in the pictures it is true that Sony pictures shows blurry, overall Sony presents more natural pictures
(Base on personal opinion)
LG is also great

Comparing these phones
S7 is the best flagship smartphone,

Coming to LGG5 it is a modular phone
That can change into camera,spekeretc compating these phones i would prefer samsung S7

You really have to test the RAW files too. The Galaxy S7 really shines in RAW. It's simply amazing together with Adobe Lightroom for android.

So sad to see that, although sony make the sensor for all, but itself cannot do the best job, at least the second in this review. Sony should solve the problem since the Xperia Z series which they only excellent in hardware but not software

Lg G2 set the standard for thing bezels.
Lg G3 set the standard for the 2k resolution.
Lg G4 set the standard for complete full manual camera with intuitive controls.
Lg G5 brings modular design with removable battery+SD card.
Footnote: LG G4 had the software optimised for 808, proved that raw hardware is nothing without optimisation, so they set the bar higher.
I'll let you guys draw the conclusion.
P.S. I own/owned Lg G3, Nexus5, Lg G4, Nexus 6P, Lg G5; I also use SGS 6 and 7 edge. Unbiased opinion, all I care is about my money being well spent.
