You don't necessarily need to be a professional, but you do need to know how to use your chosen equipment. This goes with any camera you choose.

Agreed...

I loved my Xperia Acro S camera after a couple of practice and basic photography interest... After learning to tweak metering, ISO, exposure, it is one of the best camera phones for its time...

But I admit that when I handed it to someone else that does not know how to use it, the results are usually disappointing (specially in low light)

I have compared my pictures to iPhone 4, 4s and 5, and I can get better results most of the time... except for indoor soft snaps, almost any other type of scene, including night landscape shots, the Xperia can give better results.

I have yet to use deeply newer devices, to compare fairly.

"Take a look - all that’s used are VSCO Cam’s amazing filters and the HTC One camera."
All these pictures were tweaked and enhanced with filters.
Nonetheless they look great.

Original photographer here. Trust me, if you take the time and energy to, you can/will get better results than these images!

As a matter of fact, the photos on the HTC one is above average but what puts it down to just 'above average' rather then excellent is the low resolution. If the HTC one had a 5 ultrapixel then HTC one will be one of the best.

Did you even read the article?

“The HTC One's camera is remarkably amazing. The f/2.0 aperture size really becomes useful in situations where your environment may lack a good amount of light.”

This is true as an HTC One owner, while other phones can only shoot with flash (ruining the photo) at night the One can shoot without flash photo 6 is a good example of that.

And are you blind or something? I saw a Nexus 5 and an iPhone 5/5S on the photos so i doubt the photographer hasn't touched other mobile phones.

Never said he doesn't/couldn't use other phones. The article, however, is about photos taken with HTC One. By "other phones" you clearly don't mean Nokia, for example, whose phones take much better low-light photos (even without a flash).

The Lumia 1020 is on my list of phones I MUST use in the near future!
