I've been pretty happy with my Pixel XL's camera (easily keeps up with the incremental improvements in cell phone cameras over the years) but I also appreciate how they didn't make this into too much of a puff piece where they "hand wave" away the amount of work still needed in Photoshop or similar. The takeaway is that with some effort and intelligent use of other software tools, you can put together a nice image with all sorts of lower-end cameras. The bit at the end about hopefully adding some of this functionality to software available on the phone was a nice touch, as I imagine all of the big players are always working on that sort of thing.
