Photos from the Pixel 2 are OUTSTANDING

I've been seeing the photos in various places online.

MBKHD did a review and it was clear the Pixel 2 had way better processing.

My buddy got one and posted a selfie on Facebook. The camera, a front facing camera at that, is phenomenal.
It was so clear and the white balance was perfect. And he was in his office in sub-par lighting. The photos are so CLEAR looking. Almost DSLR like. I know the blur is artificial, but Google is nailing it.

Here's a tweet. Low light is outstanding.

These don't even look like they came from a smartphone. I guess technology has improved since my 6S Plus. Wow.

I don't know what Google is doing, but man, they are putting those algo's to work. I guess letting people upload all their photos for free gave them crazy amounts of data to work with.

Never mind all the algorithms, AI and software awesome sauce. The Pixel 2 has a hardware trick up it's selves...it is using a dual pixel sensor. So it has more data on where the light is coming from. If this is sounding familiar, it should. As that is very similar, although not as advanced, as to how Lytro pulls off it's Holography with a single lens.
 
Those are nice. :(

Wish my little Moto X4 produced such nice images. It's a little bit of a step back from my 6p, which I liked very much.
