I've grown bored with the way Google Pixel photos look
Over the past five years, Google has sacrificed its edge in the mobile photography race for AI parlor tricks.

For the better part of a decade, Google has owned the mobile photography space. Dating back to, arguably, the very first Pixel in 2016 — and if not, then surely its successor models a year later — Google's in-house smartphone ambitions felt born out of a desire to shake up what a standard smartphone camera could do. Even as sensors were reused over and over, Google found the right touches within its software and the processing performed on every single shot, leading to a world where Apple and Samsung seemingly could not compete.
