Fresh options for 2018

Photography is one of the main tasks modern smartphone. Therefore, when choosing a smartphone, many users pay attention not only to the screen size and performance of the hardware platform, but also to what kind of camera it uses.

But, smartphone manufacturers produce hundreds of models every year and most of them use the maximum simple camera. Because of this, finding a smartphone with a good camera can be difficult.

The Galaxy S line of smartphones has always been equipped with good cameras. Therefore, if you need a smartphone with a good camera, and you are willing to overpay a little for a well-promoted brand and flagship hardware, then the Galaxy S7 (or S7 Edge) will definitely suit you. This smartphone is equipped with a 12 megapixel rear camera with f/1.7 aperture. In addition to high-aperture optics, another feature of this camera is fast work. According to the manufacturer, it takes less than 1 second to start the camera.

As for the rest of the filling, everything is also very good here. The smartphone uses a 5.1-inch SuperAMOLED screen with a resolution of 2560x1440, an eight-core Exynos 8890 processor with a MALI T880 MP12 video accelerator (or Qualcomm Snapdragon 820), 4 gigabytes of RAM, and a 3000 mAh battery.

If you want to save a little money, you can purchase the previous year's model. Galaxy smartphones The S6 and Galaxy S5 can still be found in stores. Their cameras are a little simpler than the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, but they're still better than most other smartphones.

OnePlus OnePlus2 is one of the most unusual smartphones presented in our rating good smartphones. OnePlus2 offers the latest technical specifications, but at the same time costs significantly less than other flagship smartphones in 2016. But OnePlus OnePlus2 is distinguished not only by its powerful hardware platform, it also has a very good camera.

The OnePlus OnePlus2 camera is based on the Omnivision PureCel OV13860 sensor. Its resolution is 13 megapixels and its aperture is f/2.0. Also laser autofocus.

The technical characteristics of the smartphone are also at a very high level. 5.5 installed here inch screen with FullHD resolution, eight-core chip with clock frequency 1.8 gigahertz and video accelerator Adreno 430, as well as a battery with a capacity of 3300 mAh.

The only downside is that the OnePlus OnePlus2 can be hard to find on sale, but you can always order it from China.

LG has almost caught up Samsung company in terms of the level of photography. And at the moment, the flagship model from LG is equipped with a camera of no less quality than the flagship from Samsung.

This quality of photographs was achieved thanks to the use of two cameras on the back of the smartphone. The first camera has a resolution of 16 megapixels and an aperture of F/1.8. It is equipped with laser autofocus and optical stabilization. The second camera has a resolution of 8 megapixels and f/2.4 aperture. This second camera allows you to take wide-angle shots at an angle of 135°. Apart from these two cameras on the back of the device, there is also a front camera for selfies. Its resolution is 8 megapixels.

But that’s not all the photo chips of this device. The LG G5 SE smartphone has a modular structure, allowing you to connect additional photo module called CAM Plus.

Technically, the LG G5 SE is the flagship smartphone of 2016. It uses a 5.3-inch screen with a resolution of 2560x1440, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 processor with eight cores and an Adreno 510 video accelerator, 3 gigabytes of RAM, and a 2800 mAh battery.

In addition, last year's flagship, the LG G4, is still available for sale. This smartphone is equipped with a fairly good camera with a resolution of 16 megapixels and F/1.8 aperture.

Lumia 950 is a new product for 2016 from Microsoft. This smartphone has received a large number of interesting features. For example, a new operating room Windows system 10 Mobile and a good camera based on the Carl Zeiss PureView photo module.

Ruler Huawei smartphones P has been in production for many years and has many fans. The main difference of this line has always been the thin metal body. But Huawei P9, which is the latest representative of this line, also distinguished itself with a good camera.

Like LG G5, this smartphone It has two cameras on the back of the device. These cameras were developed with the participation of Leica and have a resolution of 12 megapixels. The main feature of these cameras is that one of them is color and the other is black and white.

Its resolution was 8 megapixels.

Rest Huawei specifications P9 includes: a 5.2-inch screen with FullHD resolution, an eight-core HiSilicon Kirin 955 chip with a Mali-T880 MP4 video accelerator, 3 gigabytes of RAM and a 3000 mAh battery.

It should be noted that Sony is a blunder in optimizing smartphones for MediaTek chipsets, so the Xperia M5 has been annoying customers with various “glitches” for a long time; by today’s standards, the Helio X10 processor is slow, and it does not work at its maximum capabilities in the M5. The case heats up with or without reason, autonomy leaves much to be desired. But the proprietary shell is comfortable, the cameras are high-quality, the display is bright and clear, and the prestige of such a smartphone in “glamorous” circles is much higher than that of any Huawei or Xiaomi. Official distributors They've gone crazy and are asking a completely ridiculous 25 thousand rubles for an old Sony, but "gray" sellers estimate the Xperia M5 Dual at 15-16 thousand - a completely fair price for such a model.

ZTE Nubia Z11 mini S

ZTE has a luxury division, Nubia, and it, in turn, has the flagship Z11 series, which has a simplified version of the Z11 mini, which recently underwent an update in the house that Jack built. We should pay tribute to the Chinese - the Z11 mini S differs from the Z11 mini radically and only for the better.

A very agile smartphone with a brutal body and red accents. You can’t really find fault with the characteristics: fast Snapdragon 625, 4 GB of RAM, 64 or 128 GB of internal storage. It’s also nice that ZTE (whose “hands are sharpened” more to adjust the audio path than camera algorithms) made a broad gesture and equipped the Z11 mini S with a 22-megapixel rear camera based on the Sony IMX318 sensor. The much more expensive ASUS ZenFone 3 Deluxe and Xiaomi Mi Note 2 are equipped with the same sensor, if you are not aware.

The modern electronics market is filled with gadgets with the most incredible functions. But the majority of users choose mobile phones that have the most popular properties:

• high-quality camera;
• good battery;
