We peel back some copper tape to unleash the XL's beast of a main camera.
Although the megapixel count on this camera is close to last year's, the similarities between the sensors end there.
This year Google switched to a dual-pixel sensor, added optical image stabilization, and opened the aperture up to f/1.8 from last year's f/2.0.
Also there's a new Google Lens? Oh, oh it's not—okay, not a physical lens, gotcha.
