How do phone cameras get 'class-leading'?

The Pixel 11 boasts 'class-leading cameras'. This isn't just about megapixels; it's a combination of advanced hardware, like larger sensors and better lenses, and sophisticated software. Google's computational photography, powered by its Tensor chip, uses AI to process images, improving detail, colour, and low-light performance, often making a bigger difference than hardware alone.
