Which smartphone most accurately (like the human eye) reproduces the colors in the photo?
You will need to take pictures of fabrics and clothes in different lighting conditions, without additional photography equipment. Distance from the object and 20 cm, and more than two meters. I really want the shades of the fabrics to be as they are: not highlighted, not darkened, so that the texture can be seen. I am looking for a smartphone without a bang, with autonomy of more than a day, 2 SIM cards. At the expense of performance - I don’t install games, but I like to download all sorts of tutorials, organizers, which all the time give out some kind of reminders ... I want everything to work smoothly, quickly. What smartphone do you recommend? Preferably around $300
upd: do I need to focus on the dxomark scale? If yes, what is the min. indicator fit? How many MP is optimal? How many main cameras? What luminosity? Where else to look, except for manual settings and raw photos?

Anywhere you can Manually set the white balance + manual shutter speed and aperture settings + lightroom action for 1 frame further batch processing
In your question, in my opinion, the evaluation criteria are somewhat blurred. Oddly enough, printers understand color accuracy best of all - they have the appropriate experience (the equipment has to be adjusted when changing the type of paint and paper), and special. standards in hand. And the accuracy of the human eye - well, how many of these eyes, so many opinions. And even if the owner of these eyes is the only one, then there are also options ... Here is my example: I recently bought a new Meizu 9 Note smartphone, took a photo - I liked the quality. I installed Google Camera (GCam) on it - the pictures became even better. I turned on the HDR + mode in GCam and they became just great. I think the last option would not suit you, because the colors are oversaturated there, but I really like, "this is how I see" (c).
And that's not all, there are more questions:
1. Will you show the result of the shooting only on the screen of your smartphone, or on a large monitor too? How are you going to take into account the difference in the color profile of these screens?
2. Will you print on paper? If so, then the printer will add its own distortions, which will also need to be corrected.
And finally, about the subject. Exler has an interesting review-recommendation , and in the range of $200...300 he advises Honor 8X and Huawei P20 Lite, while hinting that the price of the cooler Huawei P30 lite is decreasing and will also soon enter this range.
I'll start from the end. For your task, the smartphone is not suitable at all. Because the physical size (area) of the matrix is negligible. Accordingly, in low light, the result will always be crappy. Secondly, the light in the room can be such that it is simply impossible to obtain adequate colors without special measurements and subsequent correction. That is, shooting in such conditions, even with a professional camera, is not a "one-click" task. Thirdly, the notorious human eye cannot serve as a standard, since color perception depends very much on conditions. That is why, in those premises where they work with color (printing houses, editorial offices, advertising agencies), they try to make lighting close to standard.
All this does not mean that the task of a good transfer of color and texture is unsolvable. This means that it is always solved through the use of the same external light.
