I use music, infact the whole Apple one. But Maps, Siri, News, Wallet etc are quite useless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask someone to share their Whatsapp location with you - and then track. It'll use Apple Maps. You can uninstall Apple Maps and see how location sharing works. Let me know if it’s opening into Google maps 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't even work with flight tickets/boarding pass. It's a novelty than a useful feature right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought it cos I switched over to entire apple ecosystem. Rear camera is decent nothing great, selfie camera is sh*t. Opening and saving attachments is a pain as stand alone, works great with airdrop. Battery life is very good no doubt, but all in all if you are not moving to apple ecosystem on a whole, you might feel very restricted with iPhone. To add to it the recent camera shoot out done by MKBHD pretty much proved that iPhone 14 pro camera too is no where the best anymore, competition has caught up! I might just switch back to android and sell the Apple Watch and continue using the MacBook, which is amazing. Move over to best camera section. Tim must have given him good spanking after that last video. Shame Asus Zenfone 9 is not available in India. Looks to be a solid small size phone.

But clearly people have voted and his one vote obvioulsly is his view, that said iphone camera are no where bad (the rear), but they are not the best too. Phone camera in my next phone will be one of the biggest draw for me, and I think I will probably pick a Pixel phone next, maybe the 8 Pro over 15 pro, but let's see.

Periscope cam is supposed to be a feature in next year's pro iphones so maybe that will be a gamechanger for them. As per recent google leaks, next year's pixel phones are supposed to be not much of an upgrade but they might release a pixel fold which is interesting. https://www.xda-developers.com/2023-2025-google-pixel-roadmap-leak/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like, how they did during the P2XL and the whole industry almost uses that computational photography pipeline (taking multiple exposure level images when the shutter is pressed and processing them for the final shot) aka HDR+. With the P8, they might be going for Staggered HDR instead of HDR+. If implemented properly, the P8 camera processing might become a new industry standard. ----- Staggered HDR is a method of capturing short and long exposures of scenes nearly simultaneously. Google currently employs HDR Plus Bracketing, which takes individual photos in rapid succession and uses them to create a final image with a wide dynamic range — meaning there’s detail in both shadows and in highlight areas. It works well, but it also means that the system has a harder time dealing with moving subjects since it’s using separate frames. With staggered HDR, a short exposure follows right on the heels of a long exposure — before the long exposure has even finished. This rolling shutter effect scans the sensor from top to bottom and means that there’s no wait for one exposure to finish before starting another one. This means there are fewer motion artifacts to deal with, and less power is consumed in the process — Samsung says it reduces power consumption by 24 percent compared to a method using separate frames. If Google does plan to add support for staggered HDR, then a new camera sensor is on the way, too. Kuba says that the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro use a Samsung Isocell GN1 for their main camera sensor, which doesn’t support staggered HDR. The Isocell GN2 does support the feature, so it seems to be a likely candidate for the Pixel 8. The GN2 would also provide some autofocus enhancements thanks to a tweaked phase-detection array that’s more sensitive to horizontal movement. It seems likely that Google will keep iterating on the HDR feature it made popularly, and this early hint gives us a glimpse of what that might look like. ----- Sources: https://www.theverge.com/2022/12/20/23519193/google-pixel-8-camera-rumor-staggered-hdr-sensor https://www.gsmarena.com/first_leaks_of_google_pixel_8_reveal_huge_camera_upgrade-news-56929.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have preferred Google to use the new 8 gen 2 - it's crushing A16 in benchmarks. If battery life is good, Apple finally has competition.

Pixel's RAW output isn't as good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
