Very likely those reviews are paid to praise G6.Even though it's all on pre-release phones, so far the test photos and video that I've seen for the G6 compare very favorably with those taken on an S7 Edge and an IPhone 7 Plus. I own both an S7 Edge and an IPhone 7 Plus, so I'm pretty familiar with the pros and cons of the cameras on both of those phones. It's hard to tell by just a few reviews, but I think the G6 in pre-release holds up flagship performance expectations pretty well.
The flaws I've seen in some reviews, but not others, include a tendency to blow out highlights and to have white balance that skews to a cold blue or Aqua tint. This white balance issue would be comparable to what I used to put up with in IPhone 6 Plus and older iPhones. I have so far not seen anything like Samsung's tendency to artificially punch up saturation or intensity in blue and red subjects.
IPhone 7 Plus OIS seems better for video. Possibly the iPhone mic is also better at picking up sound, but it's hard to be sure based off of one review. We really won't know more until retail release reviews are able to be completed. I have so far not seen anything to dim my enthusiasm for this phone and I am pretty picky about the cameras because I use camera phones a lot to take pictures of family when an SLR or even a point and shoot aren't as easy to use unobtrusively.
Considering both this site and Pocketnow gave the phone high marks, I seriously doubt this.Very likely those reviews are paid to praise G6.
Why do you think so? You really think these review websites make main income by online ad? LOL. Just look at androidauthority, they sell g6 like their own product, almost just talk about it.Considering both this site and Pocketnow gave the phone high marks, I seriously doubt this.

I hope so. 13MP is already a step back from 16MP.
And this was on pre-release software on the G6.^That was surprising, but we'll see what other reviews say.
Look and decide for yourself. When I looked at the pictures I thought the Pixel pictures were better almost every shot."The LG G6, coming in months after the Pixel XL with what some would consider an inferior overall camera setup, manages to take some fantastic photos that push what the Pixel XL can do and even beat it in some situations."

Just because they received money to praise for whatever the product is, it is simple.I don't know what to think about reviews in general and now about AC reviews. I find them pretty good on tech details, but their praising is almost universal. The S6 is released without an SD Card and all the AC editors can do is tell everyone why SD Cards are bad and how no one needs SD Cards anymore. The next year Samsung release the S7 with SD Card support, now the AC editors are praising the inclusion of SD cards. Tied to this the AC editors say 32 GB is no big deal in the G6 review because it supports SD Cards. The lack of consistency is strange, having been a former product reviewer, and knowing the pressure that can be applied this seems strange.
