The f/2.0 aperture on the Pixel is the widest yet for a smartphone, if I'm not mistaken.

It's actually pretty mediocre. I was surprised when I read that it was only f/2.

With a modern low-noise DSLR sensor you might just be able to use that aperture indoors at ISO3200+ On a tiny phone sensor you'll need flash.
