Voting is now closed and the results will be announced below. If you're late to the party and want to examine the test samples with a non-tainted mind, you can always check out the first page before reading this page. For the rest of you, here it goes.
Apple iPhone 7 • LG G5 • Sony Xperia XZ • Samsung Galaxy S7
Some of you got it right in the comments, and it's no wonder - signature processing specifics do help. Phone A was the iPhone 7, the LG G5 was Phone B, the Xperia XZ was assigned the letter 'C', while the Galaxy S7 stood behind the Phone D label.
The LG G5 inched ahead of the iPhone 7 to snatch the victory 30% vs. 26% in the first test sample. In the second, however, it obliterated all competition gathering 53% of upvotes, the Galaxy S7 a distant second with 31%. Clearly, the most of you find the LG G5 daylight photos to be the best.
You can view the original full-size samples below, no cropping this time.
