For some phone users, the best phones must be the best camera phones – those smartphones that come equipped with a selection of high-quality cameras to help you take photos and videos of key memories, capture artsy landscapes, or even just make your Instagram stories look nicer.
The best camera phones on the market come equipped with high-resolution sensors, but resolution isn't everything. The iPhone 17 Pro Max has three 48MP cameras, all of which support Apple’s Fusion Camera tech (which we’ve explained in another piece). The rival Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, however, has a 200MP main camera – that’s more than four times the pixels than the iPhone 17 Pro Max.
