I have been an Android user for more than 10 years (my first phone being HTC Inredbile S and last being Pixe 4a), and I recently moved to the Iphone 14 Pro. Here is my take on the camera -

The good: In good lighting conditions, the pictures are sharp and also more natural. Also in low light, I find the Iphone camera quite capable as it does not over-expose to make the photo super bright. Also the transition from 0.5 to 1 to 2 to 3 is very smooth (0.5x is actually quite good). The video is head and shoulders above the rest.

The bad: Iphone photos dont look "special", like it used to do in my Pixel 4a and my wife's S22 Ultra. It takes good photos, but when it comes to showing off those pics on social media or to friends, I would always prefer my Pixel. Specially in Portrait mode, Pixel is amazing at 25% of the Iphone's price. Now there is a slightly positive side to it - i was comparing some recent pics from my wife's S22 ultra and my Iphone 14 pro. Samsung tends to make the pics look super smooth. My skin was looking very fair in her pics (while I am not that fair), and the white balance also high although the room was lit with warm light. The photos looked very pleasing, but that is not how the actual setting was. Iphone on the other hand showed the pic almost exactly as it was. I personally would prefer my Pixel 4a pics most of the times.

It’s better than the shitty iTunes garbage that doesn’t even let you pick a different hard drive to back up your iPhone data.

You can have a 128 GB SSD on Windows 10 and if you back up your iPhone with iTunes, goodbye SSD storage.

At least with iMazing, you can pick a different location and a different hard drive to store your iPhone backup AND customize what can be backed up and restored to your device. It’s a very powerful backup tool.
