8 megapixel mega shootout: Picture this

10 November 2011
In a time honored tradition, we have the latest and greatest cameraphones lined up and ready to shoot for the top. It's been a while, we know. The last time we had a taste of 8MP sharpshooting action was in the distant 2008. 8MP then and 8MP now...

This is absolutely crap comparison and it is very bias, the iphone photo quality really sucks compared to even Sony Ericsson Arc S but they say it is the best.

    LMFAO... GSM Arena have outdone themselves on this one. The iphone 4S pics are absolute crap, especially in low light conditions.

    I'd say it's a fight between the N9 and the Galaxy S2, but anyway you look at it, the scores are subjective.

      two HTC phones? are they insane?
      I know they probably use different camera chips, but why?
      you can use moto, LG and others.

      the site leans toward some brands. disgusting.

        AnonD-3485, 10 Nov 2011You are talking about sensors but mentioned Carl Zeiss (len... moreNo i know my stuff. The reason i said that is that alot of nokia fan boy always think because they use Carl Zeiss optic they have the best cam. lololol. I think the sensor is more important than lens and this is proof of that. N9 use Carl zeiss lens but did not have the best score. Iphone 4s use sony sensor and has the best score and am a apple hater right here." The Nokia N9 is a good option for those that need high dynamic range in their photos, but we're not that impressed with its overall performance." Its laughable lol. 8mp vs 8mp is a battle of technologies and SONY WON hand down.

          I have a Galaxy S2 and the photos suck. There is a strong pink hue at the center of most photos. You can notice it in almost ALL indoors shots and if the background is white, it is even worse. Beware.

                                        Regardless, this is just one opinion. The Xperia arc has won an EISA award for best camera, they don't give these out for no reason.
