DSLR or smartphone? Controversy has been on the table for years among photographers, photography enthusiasts, and journalists since phone cameras started becoming an everyday thing. To this day, many explain their need to change their cell phones by saying that they need new, better lenses or more advanced imaging software. However, many of the winning photos at the 2021 iPhone Photography Awards were taken with much older iPhones and are still stunning.

The grand prize winning photo of the competition, “Shepherds of Transylvania,” was taken by Hungarian photographer Istvan Kerekes with an iPhone 7. It’s also no exception. Many winners in multiple categories were taken on iPhones that are several years old. Contest rules also state that photographers cannot use desktop photo editing software, although mobile versions are allowed.
