Sensor Size Vs. Image Quality
 
There is a common misconception that sensor size and megapixel counts are the most important considerations when assessing camera specs and image quality. While those two things are undeniably important for many professionals and photography enthusiasts, they are far less relevant than consumers are led to believe, especially as they relate to cutting-edge smartphone photography. Smartphones simply lack the physical size and real-estate to accommodate large sensors and there’s only so many pixels can be crammed onto smartphone camera sensor before image quality is severely degraded in less than optimal lighting conditions. Smaller individual pixels on a camera sensor simply gather less light than larger pixels, which can negatively impact many aspects of image quality, especially when lighting isn’t ideal, yet smartphone photography is everywhere. To combat the inherent limitations of smaller camera sensors, quality optics, intelligent image processing and a number of computational photography techniques are paramount to achieve high-quality photographs and video. Qualcomm knows this and has systematically bolstered its mobile platforms over the years with image processing capabilities that are among the best in the industry.
