By the way, this is a great topic. I might recommend joining the forum so you can take part in ongoing discussion!
I'm actually a member already - I just didn't realize I wasn't logged in when I posted that.
And I guess you're right - and that's one reason Samsung is so successful. I'm just so used to the natural photos from my 6S and (albeit less-so) 7, these don't feel great to me so far. I'm sure over time my eyes will adjust and it will be fine, it just doesn't feel like an improvement to me in general.
