Google just tops everyone when it comes to cameras, I would know currently have a p7a lol
Do you use the stock OS? I run grapheneOS on a 6a, and the camera seems only okay on the gOS camera app.
It doesn't bother me enough to install the Google app, but I've always wondered how much of the camera performance is down to the hardware vs OS vs app.
I had the Pixel 5 with GOS, and the camera on that was awful, the google camera app did all the heavy lifting to make it good. I now have the Pixel 8 with GOS and the camera quality of the grapheme camera app vs the google camera is much closer, but the google camera app is better. I use it with all permissions removed apart from storage.
