When it comes to smartphone cameras, most of the people are relying on Samsung and iPhones because both smartphones were leading when it comes to photography. But a few years ago, Huawei introduced the P series smartphones and it was one of the best back then. Today, the P20 series is leading the DxO mark with the Huawei P20 Pro featuring a triple lens camera.
For starters both the Samsung Galaxy S9+ and the iPhone 8 Plus features a dual lens camera comprising of telephoto lens which enables both smartphones to do optical zooming however the Samsung Galaxy S9+ features a dual aperture mode that can adjust depending on the situation while the Huawei P20 Pro features a triple rear lens camera setup which is a first in smartphones.
