I was really surprised when the most disappointing feature of my 14 Pro was the camera. The overprocessing is horrendous in low light, and the constant switching between lenses is annoying when taking everyday photos.
It's funny because in contrast to the old perception of Android phones being fiddly and iPhones "just working", Google's camera software has been way more point and shoot since the original Pixel. Sure, it's also hyper-processed, but in my experience it provided a more reliably "good" result across a range of situations.
And whereas Pixel software updates just kept delivering better and better photos on the same hardware, I know with this 14 Pro I'm going to be stuck with this out of the box performance until I upgrade in several years.
