Eli5: If we create a camera that has better quality than the human eye, would we be able to see the better quality image or would put eyes fail?

For detail, Yes, because you’d be able to zoom into the picture and see details that you wouldn’t be able to see with the naked eye. Now if you specifically looked at the photo from the exact focal length of the lens used to take the photo, this may not be the case.
As for color, that can be a bit subjective, because cameras already capture more color than the average human eye can see (our eyes see 1 million colors or so while cameras can capture 16 million or more). The issue comes in terms of accuracy. People will often prefer to look at a picture with more saturation (vibrance/colors that “pop”) vs one that’s exactly as their eyes would have seen in real life
