The article from The Verge compares how Apple, Google, and Samsung define and enhance photos using their respective smartphone cameras. Here’s a brief summary:

1. Apple: Focuses on natural-looking photos with minimal post-processing. The iPhone’s camera aims to capture images that closely resemble what the human eye sees, emphasizing true-to-life colors and details.

2. Google: Uses advanced AI and computational photography to enhance images. The Pixel phones often produce photos with vibrant colors and high dynamic range, sometimes altering the scene to make it look more appealing.

3. Samsung: Strikes a balance between Apple’s natural approach and Google’s AI enhancements. Samsung’s Galaxy phones offer vivid colors and sharp details, with options for users to adjust the level of enhancement according to their preferences.

The article highlights the different philosophies each company has towards photography, reflecting their broader approaches to technology and user experience.

My Thoughts

• I think the norm in future is that every photo is expected to be edited to some extent.

• Without edits, people will think it looks weird.

• It's not a bad thing. Especially if you are an unskilled photographer like me 😂
