The Pixel 10 Pro XL offers the latest and greatest generation of Google's computational photography magic and with new AI tricks with ProRes Zoom it proclaims itself to be the best camera on a phone ever.
Such bold claims definitely need to be checked. And we know of one phone that might not agree with those proclamations, and you probably won't be surprised that we are talking about the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra.
To test the camera capabilities of these Android powerhouses we took dozens of photos in various conditions. In this article we give you the samples side by side with no further commentary, just take a close look and make up your own mind.

So Google better really step up its software processing game...
