Can a mobile phone take more photos than a camera?

Answer: No.

The relationship between pixels and photo quality has not been completely determined.

Mainly because of the promotion of the booming smartphone companies in recent years. In the past five years, from 500w pixels in the iPhone4 era to more than 2,000 W pixels in the mobile phone camera, the number of pixels in the mobile phone camera has tripled. Mobile phone manufacturers have spared no effort to publicize the benefits of high pixels and instill in ordinary users the concept that "the higher the pixels, the better the photos"

However, under the background that the photosensitive element of the camera is better than the mobile phone, the works taken by the mobile phone can only approach the camera infinitely, but can't surpass the camera. In fact, it can be surpassed, but it is an old camera.

The thin body of the smart phone is also doomed to be unable to hold the telephoto lens. Take iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone X as examples. In order to shoot at the telephoto end, they designed an extra lens with a focal length of 56mm, which can achieve twice the optical zoom effect with a 28 mm wide-angle lens ... The focal length of a general SLR camera can be switched between 18 and 300mm focal length at will, and different aperture sizes and long exposure time can be achieved, so the applicability is much wider than that of ordinary smartphones.

For a long time in the future, mobile phones can't catch up with SLR anyway. Size-limited CMOS, non-reflective structure, phase focusing, independent metering, physical limitation is proportional to focal length and aperture. These gaps cannot be compensated by the development of science and technology.

Many people think that the photos taken by mobile phones are similar to those taken by SLR, but in fact, defects will continue to appear after enlarging the photos. Here, I believe you will know that the photos taken by mobile phones have not surpassed those taken by cameras.

That's my answer.
