OnePlus 10T Camera Samples

OnePlus 10T, Nightscape on the main camera. This phone can take some surprisingly decent shots in low light with the main 50-megapixel camera. Zoom in and you'll notice all the details are a smidge blurry (likely due to some handshake), but the scene is exposed well and the colors pop.
OnePlus 10T, main camera. When the lighting is right, you can take sharp photos like this one, and the white balance is quite accurate to the moment, too.
OnePlus 10T, main camera. Here's where things get weird. This is a simple daytime photo but the result isn't great. There's a white border all around the leaves, almost like a halo effect, and it's likely due to oversharpening. The sky also looks a bit unnaturally blue, and so do some of the colors in the image. There's not really a reason a phone at this price should struggle this much in this kind of scene.

Photograph: Julian Chokkattu04Google Pixel 6 Pro, main camera. Zoom in and you won't see any of the oversharpening issues on this image. There's good contrast, the scene is well exposed, and there's strong detail and color.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu05OnePlus 10T, Portrait mode. Compare this image with the following one. The OnePlus does a good job with the outline around the subject, blurring the background pretty well, but it loses a bit of detail in my dog's fur (right around the chest). 
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu06Google Pixel 6 Pro, Portrait mode. The Pixel 6 Pro shot isn't perfect—it messes up the blur outline a little bit along the right side of my dog's fur—but it's insanely more detailed. You can pick up so much more of the pet hair.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu07OnePlus 10T, main camera. This OnePlus phone has a tendency to over-brighten images or sap away shadows, and it loses out on some contrast and detail in the process. Compare this image to the following one. 
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu08Google Pixel 6 Pro, main camera. The Pixel image shows more texture on the wall, and I think the contrast it maintains makes the photo more interesting.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu09OnePlus 10T, ultrawide camera. The ultrawide does the same oversharpening in this scene, and the colors are similarly a bit *off*. 
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu10Google Pixel 6 Pro, ultrawide camera. Compared to the previous image, this photo just looks … normal. The exposure, colors, and details just help make it look really natural.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu11OnePlus 10T, Portrait mode. This effect works pretty well on people, not just dogs, though the OnePlus had some trouble with the hair on the left side. Detail is strong, but my partner's skin color is a bit too yellowish and pasty. 
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu12Google Pixel 6 Pro, Portrait mode. The Pixel also has some trouble with hair on the left, but it produces strong detail throughout the image. My favorite part is the skin tone. It looks much more natural—like actual skin\!
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu13OnePlus 10T, 2x digital zoom. The OnePlus 10T does not have an optical zoom camera, but there's the company still lets you tap on a 2x option for a digitally zoomed shot. This is the result. It's a similar mess of oversharpening, slightly messed up colors, and over-exposure. 
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu14Google Pixel 6 Pro, 2x digital zoom. The Pixel 6 Pro technically has a 4x optical zoom camera, but for the sake of comparison, I digitally zoomed to the same distance as the previous image. It's sharper, has better contrast, nicer colors, and overall a better image.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu15OnePlus 10T, Nightscape with the ultrawide camera. The ultrawide isn't tremendously useful in low light. This image is quite blurry, though the white balance is accurate it retains some color.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu16Google Pixel 6 Pro, Night Sight on the ultrawide. The Pixel photo is brighter, but it's similarly blurry and over-corrects the white balance. It's not a great shot either.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu17OnePlus 10T, Portrait mode on the selfie camera. The 16-MP selfie camera is surprisingly decent, especially in low light. There's good detail here, the blur effect is nice (though notice the error in the edge of my glasses), and the colors are pretty great. 
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu18Google Pixel 6 Pro, Portrait Night Sight with the selfie camera. I give OnePlus the win here because this image is slightly fuzzy, though I like my skin tone a bit more here. The Pixel also erases the frame of my glasses on the left side.
