For a majority of the users, how many of them are going to look at each picture so closely..(too warm, too cold, etc)..haha. And with only one phone, we won't be able to compare which pic is better. Just enjoy the one you have as they are all pretty good.

What's with the clickbait? Is iPhone in Canada earning a referral for promoting the video and not revealing the results?
