        Anonymous, 29 Jan 2019DxOmark is sooooo inaccurate so many times.. F1 doesn't beats iPhone 8 camera at all.Define the more accurate way than their already defined methods then. They test with both qualitative (such as how good and natural the bokeh is) and quantitative values (such as time to get the right focus). Just because you hate their result, doesn't mean they're inaccurate. Qualitative part will never be accurate, just as how POCO F1 beats everyone else but Mate 20 Pro in MKBHD's blind test.

The main camera in most cases except low light can take pictures that are just as good as gcam, which is the one that DxOMark tests when Mi Note 3 was out. I'm glad you moved on, though. The forum is too cluttered with rants.

F1 doesn't beats iPhone 8 camera at all.In real world test done by MBKHD, the Poco F1 was in the same pool as iPhone X and it came out ahead. Unless of course you're saying the iPhone X's camera is worst than iPhone 8. Winner was Mate 20 Pro ... Poco F1 came 2nd if I remember correctly.

What i... moreFirstly, more cameras on a smartphone doesn't translate to better image quality. Take the GALAXY A9 2018 for example, on paper 4 rear cameras on a smartphone sounds overkill isn't it? But the results that came out of it is rather disappointing; white balance isn't accurate at all, with a strong purple hue which may hint that they tuned it with a cooler tone in mind, as seen from GSMARENA's review of it. Secondly, the iPHONE 8/8 PLUS should be getting somewhat identical scores, given the fact that they have identical camera specifications and software algorithms. The extra telephoto camera on the plus model have nothing to do with improving image quality, but instead it gives users a little more flexibility on what u can do on a smartphone camera as compared to the non plus model

                    Marco M, 30 Jan 2019You're reading it wrong. Higher number is better. Iphone 8 - 92 Iphone 8 Plus - 94 Note 8... moreTaken from this article -
                    "For comparison, the Xiaomi Mi Note 3 and the original Pixel scored a 90, the Galaxy Note 8 and iPhone 8 Plus are got 84."

                    GSMarena made a mistake. So, it's 94 not 84. Got it! Thanks!

Or maybe you are comparing an image in AMOLED vs IPS. Send the Note 8's image in Poco for best comparison( or vv)

                        Again, wrt Dxomark, people should realize that the overall score is NOT a measure of image quality. In order to get the idea of iq across various devices, please compare the relevant sub scores i.e exposure, texture, noise, artifacts & color.

                          One big +1 for poco!
                          And one big -1 for any expensive flagship with the same level of IQ!

                            Iphone 8 - 92
                            Iphone 8 Plus - 94
                            Note 8 - 94

                            Also, amount of sensors does not automatically mean better image quality, but it often means better flexibility as the additional sensors can add wide angle, or tele or both. Some only measure depth and offer no actual added flexibility.

                                        the tech guy, 30 Jan 2019poco f1 has the same camera as the Xiaomi Mi 8 , which is Sony IMX363 Exmor RS . Sony IMX363 E... morePoco F1 & Xiaomi Mi 8 using Sony IMX 363 while Pixel 2 / 2XL using Sony IMX 362. Both sensor are 1/2.55 inch sensor & 1.4 micron pixel size, using Dual Pixel technology.

                                        The specs of the sensor are identical, thats why Pixel camera apk works well on Xiaomi phones. The only differents are Mi 8 & Pixel got OIS, while Poco does not.
