I recently looked back at a photo I’d taken on a smartphone in 2014, and I was struck by just how good it looked. The details were soft, the shadows were dark. It was the kind of photo I felt like I hadn’t seen out of a phone in years. That might be changing, though. The Pixel 11 includes a suite of new photography features called Camera Looks that allow those who really care about those things (hi, it’s all of us) to dial in their preferences and get rid of that modern over-processed look.

On today’s episode of The Vergecast, David Imel joins us to discuss his time reviewing the Pixel 11 Pro and how he’s thinking about its new approach to computational photography. After that, we’ve got a super-sized edition of Brendan Carr is a Dummy, everyone’s favorite podcast with a podcast. It was a big week for bad telecom policy, and we’re giving it the time it deserves. Finally, we’ve got a Lightning Round, where we’re talking Apple’s AirPods leak, Fairphone heading to the US, and YouTube changing how it counts video views.
