Nowadays, most people have a camera in their pocket, attached to their smartphone. This has resulted in all of us being able to capture memories and our day-to-day life without necessarily needing one of the best cameras at hand. Even though I own a mirrorless camera, I still take lots of photos (and videos) on my Google Pixel 10 Pro XL.

One of the things I love about my Pixel 10 Pro XL is just how good its camera is, as well as the array of editing features at my disposal. I often play around with the many filters on my phone, and I gravitate towards the black-and-white filters quite a bit.
