iPhone X's DxOMark Score of 97 Shows Google's Software Prowess

The iPhone X has been tested by DxOMark, and the results are in. The make new flagship smartphone from the Cupertino giant has scored 97 on DxOMark. While that's a score most companies would be extremely proud of, the iPhone X falls short of expectations, with the Google Pixel ii having scored 98 on the same exam.

But why does it thing and so much? Well, the Pixel 2 has a single photographic camera with OIS, and depends on software optimisations to capture beautiful images. The iPhone X, on the other hand has a dual rear camera, with dual OIS and uses its 2 lenses in combination to get the all-time looking shots.

What that adds up to, and then, is that Google has perfected its software to an extent that non but can information technology practice everything that a dual camera telephone does, it can actually do it better than a dual camera phone can. And not just any dual camera phone, we're talking about Apple'southward anniversary edition, listen-numbingly expensive iPhone X which features dual OIS along with a better A11 Bionic chip capable of advanced AI and car learning applications.

The Pixel 2's achievements are fifty-fifty more than pronounced when we have into consideration the fact that Big G hasn't yet activated the Visual Core bit, custom built past Google for advanced HDR capabilities.

It may not sound that big a deal, later on-all, the iPhone X did beat the Pixel two in the photo sub-score, scoring a whopping 101. Only unless you're a complete Apple fanboy, it'southward non hard to run into that the Pixel 2'south camera performance should be worrying some people over in Cupertino.

That said, DxOMark scores are benchmarks at the terminate of the day, and a lot depends on personal preference, but if history is any indication, the Pixel ii definitely has the better camera overall. It was the case with the Pixel and the iPhone 7 Plus terminal year, and it'south turning out to exist the instance with the iPhone X and the Pixel two now.
