One of the least used yet a very powerful feature of Samsung flagship smartphones is the 'Pro Mode'. It's the least used because very few people understand it and knows how to properly use it, and it's very powerful because if it's done right the results are beyond imagination.
I've been playing with the Pro Mode on my S8 to better understand how it affects the outcome of different pictures in different situations. Though I'm still learning, I want to share two images that gives us a rough idea about the difference.
The first image is taken in default AUTO mode that we always use, the second image is taken in PRO mode.

It's insane to see the difference.Though there are faults with the image in Pro mode such as overexposed light, it could've been avoided with Tripod and a little less shutter speed. Still, I wanted to make the point that the use of Pro Mode is seldom discussed yet probably it makes the most difference in photography.

I've started using it on my recently purchased Note 9. it's absolutely incredible. I watched a couple of YouTube videos on how to do it and it's a great, fun learning experience.

^ @Samesung very true. though it's quite hard to get the absolute perfect settings, if done right the result is astonishing! beats any camera in the market.

yep indeed...that's how I got this image done. the moon barely gave off enough light to see where I was walking. but with a 10 second shutter and boosted iso, I saw everything3ace09bd-c7d5-435f-831c-f2cbbf18d927.jpg
