Smartphone cameras have improved a lot over the years, and they now come very close to what a DSLR or a mirrorless camera can capture in terms of colors and details.

Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom add lens correction profiles for the Huawei P40 Pro, Apple iPhone SE, iPad Pro, and more
Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom add lens correction profiles for the Huawei P40 Pro, Apple iPhone SE, iPad Pro 4th generation, and more.
A number of premium and mid-range smartphones these days feature a Pro mode in the camera app that lets users make manual adjustments to the ISO, shutter speed, white balance, and exposure while capturing images. More often than not, the Pro mode also includes a RAW image capture setting that lets users save captured images as .dng files. While there are many benefits to capturing images in the RAW format, it does have a few drawbacks. For instance, when you capture images in a common format like JPEG, the smartphone can automatically correct geometric distortions or exposure issues in the images. However, when you capture RAW images, these issues aren't fixed automatically. To address this issue, Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom offer device-specific lens correction profiles for several Android smartphones that you can use to quickly correct your images.
