How can two different 2.0 megapixel camera be so different

The first picture is a shot of my wet dog taken with Mogul under ideal lighting conditions and with the phone resting on a cooler (no shaking). The second photo was taken with an iPhone posted on this blog. I find the color depth and level of detail better with the iPhone. I'll bet the person taking the shot had the phone in hand too. Don't even try going for quality shots with Mogul in hand

Really? You prefer the blown highlights of the iphone?

if ideal or perfect light conditions are a reqirement for a htc camera than that ashame because most of the time you cant have ideal conditions. When my buddy took pictures at the same time I did, the light was a little dim but clearly his lense was able to handle it and mine was not

No matter. A $100 7MP p&s the size of a credit card will wipe the floor with both the iphone and any HTC $20 camera glued onto a phone. I don't expect it to work well, it doesn't... it works, sorta, so in a pinch I can take a shot of something - which is fine.

If you want a better camera on your cell phone, your cell phone is going to have to cost about $100 more.

but you would think with a retail of 500 bucks that you could get a camera that takes better pictures than my sister can draw

I've taken pictures side by side with the iphone/mogul/touch. The HTC's are all washed out with iffy coloring. It needs near perfect lighting.

What a piece of junk.

who really expects quality from camera phones???


my Canon Powershot shits on 'dem all.




PS: Again, Apple always puts quality hardware on their devices... I hate to say it. Thats why they have a phone with a fast ass processor and one of the best touch screens. Now we can add the camera to that list. Too bad I can't say the samething about their apps.

No, you would not. Because you'd know that the camera is about $20 retail worth of material. Go to walmart and buy one of those "kid friendly" $20 digital cameras. Take some shots. Compare them. Notice they are the same as the ones from the mogul. Note that with about 10 seconds of post processing, you can make them look like the pictures from an iPhone.

When you see camera phones with actual digital camera lenses on them, then you can raise your hopes a bit.
