9. Xiaomi 13 Pro – The newest phone camera tech
With a 1-inch camera sensor, it’s among the first phones available for purchase outside of China. This technology is widely expected to improve smartphone photography over the next few years, but Xiaomi was the first to market with it. According to our tests, the larger sensor area collects more light, which leads to amazing low light images and a degree of detail not possible with smaller sensors. Notwithstanding the noticeable camera bulge, you have a fantastic setup when you combine a functional 50Mp telephoto sensor with a 50Mp ultrawide.
