The Galaxy S5 takes slightly better photos and videos than Google Pixel 2, because although it has a tinier aperture which is not so good for shooting pictures in poorly lited environments, and they both have a 0.38 inches sensor, the same 3840x2160 (4K) video resolution and the same 30 fps video frame rates, the Galaxy S5 also counts with a back-facing camera with a way better 16 mega pixels resolution.

The Google Pixel 2 is not only the best phones in our comparison, but it's also very cheap compared to the other phones.
