Eli5: why when you take pictures with your phone (for example, of a beautiful sunset) the colours and proportions don’t look as good as with the human eye?

Years ago I had two cameras. A zoom and and pocket camera with a slightly wide angle (35mm lens on 35mm film). The zoom could never get a landscape looking anything like I saw it but the smaller camera was pretty close to what I saw. I always used it for landscapes. So lens angle makes a big difference. Zoom your camera so it is displaying what you see.
