The Google Pixel 4's camera is just as good as the Galaxy S7 edge one, because although the Google Pixel 4 has a smaller back-facing camera sensor shooting lower quality pictures and videos, and they both have the same video frame rate, a F1.7 camera aperture and the same 3840x2160 (4K) video quality, it also counts with a back facing camera with a better resolution.
Google Pixel 4 is a bit more expensive than Galaxy S7 edge, but it's still a convenient choice, because you can get a better phone for that extra money.
