The Pixels are especially adept at photography thanks to Google’s excellent computational tune-ups owing to its vast experience in AI and machine learning. However there’s one area where we feel the Pixel phones are lacking when it comes to taking pictures, and it’s got absolutely nothing to do with the cams.

- There are a number of alternatives, like Minute’s (M)Force cases, permitting you to use MagSafe devices on your Pixel, however that’s the degree of the third-party camera accessory ecosystem for Google’s phones.
- Needless to state, Pixel-specific add-ons are in brief supply.
Lessons from the previous

- We’ve even seen Essential providing a detachable 360 video camera module for the ill-fated Essential Phone.
- Meanwhile, Motorola’s Moto Z series of mobile phones provided a number of camera-related Moto Mod add-ons.
- There’s definitely scope for Pixel camera accessories for enthusiasts or for specific circumstances.
