How good can a $300 'flagship' smartphone camera be?

as declared in The images aren't as hot as the ones from the Pixel 2 or the Huawei P20 Pro, of course, but for a $300 phone, the Pocophone's cameras take decent photos. It's worth noting that by default, the Pocophone applies a logo to the bottom left of your photos (shot on the rear cameras). The quality won't be good enough for you to shoot an amateur movie on, but it'll certainly do for your Instagram stories. That said, the Moto has a less-powerful Snapdragon 450 chipset, so your overall experience with the phone might be slower. It's something that's true of many other phones launched here at IFA 2018, too, like the €300 Motorola One and the Honor Play.
