Re: Looking for a new cell phone for camera upgrade from my Pixel 3

I doubt you will see much difference in camera quality between the Pixel 3 and the 5.

I've the 4a 5G and was disappointed in the 'noise' from the normal and wide angle lens on the pixel when shooting in normal mode.

Basically I always use Night Sight mode and that really improves the image. The older camera app used to have 3 modes, HDR+ Off, HDR+ On, HDR+ enhanced. If your pixel 3 is running this version of google camera app then try the enhanced mode. If not, then use the night sight mode. It may save you from upgrading!
