The Google Pixel counts with a camera that is just as good as the camera in Samsung Galaxy XCover Pro, because although the Google Pixel has a smaller aperture which is not favorable for taking pictures and/or video in low light situations and a camera with a way lower 12.3 mega pixels resolution, it also counts with a lot better (4K) video quality and a much larger camera sensor which offers a lot better photo and video quality.
