The example shot you gave is clearly better on the P20. Also the P20 has a slightly larger sensor.

Further, you're reading entirely too much into the exposure times. They are artificial and either camera software can choose to put whatever number they want in there. The aggregate time. The average time. The theoretical equivalent time. Etc. It is not the actual times.

No, it's not better. The P20 is over-exposed, causing the colors to be off. The level of detail is equivalent, but the colors on the P20 are the worse. And no, it's not slightly larger. The sensor is TWICE as large in area as the pixel 2.

I took actual photos with the pixel 2, and I know the actual time taken. It's less than 3 seconds every time. By all accounts and reviews I've seen, the P20 is 10-25 seconds. Show me a review saying otherwise.
