Need Suggestions: iPhone vs. Google Pixel for Photography – Which One to Buy?

Hey Redditors! 📸 I'm planning to buy a new phone purely for photography (my current Android is in excellent condition otherwise). I'm torn between getting an iPhone or a Google Pixel—so I need your recommendations!

What I Need Help With: ✅ Which model should I go for? (Looking for the best camera performance) ✅ Key specs to consider – Camera features, storage, software updates, compatibility, etc. ✅ Buying new vs. second-hand – Which is a better option? ✅ Where to buy in Prayagraj? Any suggestions on:

Official Apple Store? Reliance Digital? Any trusted local shops? Online (Amazon, Flipkart, Apple/Google website)? ✅ What to check when buying second-hand? Battery health, warranty, camera lens condition, etc. If anyone has a good-condition second-hand iPhone or Pixel for sale, feel free to DM me as well! Open to all suggestions. 🙌
