A little over four months is what remains to end the year. As of today, practically all brands have already presented their flagships for this year, except for some such as Apple with the iPhone 9 or Huawei with the Mate 20 series. of the things that stand out the most is without a doubt the camera. Phones like the Huawei P20 Pro, with nothing more and nothing less than three cameras, or the Google Pixel 2 XL, which despite having a single sensor is positioned as one of the best high-end cameras. Will any of these be the best camera of 2018? We have taken a look at DXoMark, the website in charge of analyzing the cameras of all mobile phones, and today we bring you acompilation of the ten phones with the best camera of 2018.
Samsung Galaxy Note 9
It has not been more than a month since the Samsung mobile has been presented and it is already positioned as one of the best cameras. Although it has not yet been analyzed by the DXoMark website, it is known that it has the same sensors as the Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus. In summary, we find a mobile with a double 12 megapixel rear camera on both sensors and a focal aperture of f / 1.5 variable up to 2.4 and f / 2.4 in the second sensor, both with optical stabilization. The front camera in this case is 8 megapixels with a focal aperture f / 1.7. It is capable of recording in 4K quality at 30 fps and super slow motion at 960 fps in HD quality.
Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus
If the Galaxy Note 9 has the same camera as the S9 Plus, this terminal could not be missing in the ranking of the best cameras. As we just mentioned, it has exactly the same sensors, both at the rear and at the front. Its DXoMark score is 99, ranking as the fourth best camera on the market today.
Huawei P20 Pr0
Considered by many (and by DXoMark's own website) the mobile with the best camera of 2018. And no wonder, as it has three different camera sensors. In summary, we find a 40 megapixel RGB sensor and f / 1.8 aperture in charge of taking the majority of color photographs. Regarding the second and third sensors, in this case we find a 20 megapixel single color and another 8 megapixel telephoto lens capable of 5x zoom. The aperture of the two sensors is f / 1.6 and 2.4.

Huawei P20
Another Huawei phone with a good camera? Yes, and it is the third mobile with the best camera this year. And it is that it has practically the same cameras as the P20 Pro, although with one less sensor. At the rear we find two 20 megapixel RGB and monochrome sensors, the first with a focal aperture f / 1.6 and the second with 1.8. We do not have 5x zoom, but it is capable of recording video in the same quality as its namesake. The front camera is the same: 24 megapixels. Its DXoMark score is 10 2.
Google Pixel 2 XL

Exactly the same as those of the Xiaomi Mi 8, although that of the Chinese manufacturer is superior. The only differences between the two are found in the front camera, with a resolution of 7 megapixels and an aperture f / 2.2. Its rear cameras are capable of recording in 4K at 60 fps, the only ones without the need to resort to third-party software.
