This free camera app adapts to your shot and ditches overprocessing, and it's only on Android [Gallery]
While you’re usually best served by the camera app built into your smartphone, there’s a growing number of third-party apps...

Google Flow is okayish considering that it's still in beta but it's not impressive tho.

A camera you always carry should work like a camera, not as a computational filter, not as an AI image generator, but as a tool for intentional photography. It only clicks RAW images.

WTF is that Edge Detection 💀
Sony is prolly the only brand who is honest with the marketing of pictures taken by its €1500 flagship device.

Even Google updated its Quick Settings tiles design with Android 16, while Sony still continues with its goofy squared Quick Settings tiles in Android 16 on the Xperia 1 VIII.
Xperia 1 VIII still has its front camera in the bezels instead of punch-hole, thus continuing the legacy.
