“Like most Nikons, the iPhone 4 tends toward slight over-exposure and over-saturation. Picky pros might find it objectionable, as sometimes highlights or large areas of bright colors lose all detail, but this type of rendering is what an average consumer would say really ‘pops.’”

“The colors pop. Pleasantly, but almost unnaturally, super saturated and contrasty, the kind of processing I love in Nikons, taken to the extreme. That’s the iPhone 4’s secret sauce. Color and contrast. Apple’s not going for accuracy, they’re going for your eyeballs.”
Matt Buchanan & Woody Allen Jang, in Test Notes: iPhone 4 Camera for Gizmodo.
