do the s23s cameras beat the iPhone 14 and can they keep up with the excellent
pixel 7 Pro well but he went out and took a bunch of pictures Max and I have
not seen them yet and we're going to be voting on the best ones so get a piece
of paper and a pen but with us and let us know in the comments here's the first
shot this is my son Eugene early in the morning what do you guys think what's
better is that one out of focus it looks a little bit blurry on all of them does
look blurry this one looks a little too dark for me so I like the middle yeah I
definitely like the middle I like that it's a lot brighter than the others but
the HDR is better like it's less blown out outside as well well let's see well
that's the iPhone and actually the galaxy s23 is the only one that lets you
shoot with the 50 megapixel sensor and I guess it didn't help it win all right
here you go here's a couple of twins wow that's tough lighting oh my goodness
very tough lighting yeah this is the ultra wide lens on all of them so here
it's back focused again oh you see the faces are all blurred out the middle and
the right one both look really good but I think I see a little more detail in
the center one I agree I like the center all right the center is the pixel 7 Pro
yeah it looks nice and sharp all right this is my son Eli he recently started
walking now there's something interesting here I'll explain in a
second yeah that one I could see it's all blurred out but it's motion blur too
slow of a shutter on that one I have a question what color are your floors is
it are they are they warm or are they darker and cooler they're kind of in the
middle honestly yeah I'm gonna go with the left one
because his face is really in focus and sharp I do like warmth but this time I'm
gonna go for the center um that one's supposed to be white not
super warm or green let's see pixel 7 Pro in the center iPhone on the left and
the Galaxy s23 actually shot a couple different times the motion blurge is so
bad it doesn't snap it instantly like the others do moving on to the next one
we have a selfie I'm gonna go for the center one it looks natural the face it
looks like it's nice and in Focus I agree the center one definitely looks
the most balanced all right the center is the 231 for the Samsung moving on we
have a little toy Cactus this looks like a zoom photo yep I believe it's 2x it
seems like the one on the right has the most detailed but I do like the extra
pop of color on the one on the left so I'll go for that one interesting I like
the one on the right more I think the left one just
one no love for the iPhone next up we have a main camera photo this is kind of
for HDR since you see it's so bright in the background I like how bright they
are on the left side right here uh it definitely brings out the subject but
I'm actually gonna go for the one in the middle because it just looks a little
more natural more true to life yeah this is tough I like that the left one was
bright and they really pop but I see more detail in the center
I think I'm gonna go with the left though
all right iPhone and pixels all right
this is I believe a 3X I don't know what happened to that right side one it's so
flat super flat very little detail very little contrast it gets better as you go
to the left and it looks like it's Sunset so the ground there the asphalt
should be a warmer color so I'm going with the left yeah the left one is
really balanced the center one the darks are kind of crushed but the left one
oh my goodness Google's doing a great job all right we got Eli right here this
is also sunset time there's a little bit of differences here but it looks like
it's a portrait shot right yep here we have all the legs kind of blurred out I
don't know what isn't really in Focus some stuff is some stuff isn't the right
one looks super super weird it looks like artifacty or over sharpened or
something and I don't see really any blur except for like kind of this right
here the left one looks really really nice but I honestly like the center one
as well like stylistically I agree it looks magical special but the focus is
all over the place and the detail is also a little bit lost it's a great
photo but I think the left one looks the most like a DSLR shot all right you both
voted for the s23 on the left now the difference here is that we have 3x
portrait on the pixel and the Galaxy s23 but the iPhone can only do one X
portrait so I got closer which is why the blur is so off I wish they added
that digitally yeah you could do that other phones do that next up we have the
main camera right here just for kind of detail these all look very similar but
for me it's between the left and the center and I like the extra pop of
contrast that the left has with this kind of shot I agree I'm voting for the
left we got the iPhone this time it's interesting how the saturation is higher
than the other ones yeah didn't used to be like that that's weird okay
very close Zoom shot 30 x 30X yep 30X Zoom well they all look kind of bad yeah
one looks the worst right here and here you have extra contrast added around the
letters that are not there that's fake but you know what if I need to zoom into
a license plate or something else I would want to be able to read it the
see the iPhone only goes up to 5x while the other two can do 30X that's a pain I
will say it's a pain that they only do 5x still no telephoto in 2023 I know
it's also crazy that the pixel has a 5x lens in it where that thing has a 3X but
it looks a lot better alright next up we have a main camera portrait this one is
bad this one is really bad I see so much detail in the center but man is
everything blue yeah and the one on the right looks like it's a little wider of
a lens the blur looks pretty natural um I'm voting for the right I'm still
going for the center I would just adjust the color
right so iPhone in the center s23 on the right the Galaxy is too natural where
like it doesn't brighten it up enough so dark in the picture yeah yeah the pixel
is just too natural needs a little more processing now to bring up the face all
right we have a selfie here against the Sun so kind of HDR difficult here that
one looks good to me yeah it's supposed to be warm it's a sunset you want the
image to look warm that looks the worst yeah
iPhone nice that looks good wow next up this is a portrait Zoom portrait now I
like the warmth during a sunset but that is just way too much for me it looks bad
uh that one's not too bad but I'm going for the right looks the most natural and
has decent detail to me the right one just kind of looked flat with everything
kind of going on here I was actually gonna go with the left one do you like
this edging I don't want to change your mind do you like The Edge detection it
looks like it's some cut off thing right no but the others look too flat let's
see so the left was actually the iPhone the right was the pixel and the crazy
thing is this is a 3X portrait which means
the iPhone was a 1x which I cropped in like crazy three times and you see it's
bad Edge detection huh that one too next up we have a portrait shot with a
newborn baby this is Ivan not his baby not my baby I'm gonna go with the one on
the right the left one definitely messed up like cutting stuff out and the
texture on the skin looks a little bit weird compared to the other ones yeah
the right one looks very natural you could see a lot of detail though yeah I
completely agree right we have the iPhone on the right nice portrait shot
as long as you're just keeping it with the 1X we have a detail shot right here
oh okay so two of these phones have 50 megapixel main lenses and one has a 12.
so two of these phones have 50 megapixel sensors the iPhone has a 12 but the
pixel doesn't let you record in 50 where the Samsung does and this isn't 50. yeah
let's see if we can tell a difference to me this one looks the least detailed
the metal on is in the middle and the one on the right looks the most detailed
let's see if I'm wrong
I'm not really seeing much detail on the right or the left I'm seeing a lot of
detail in the center though okay let's see
let's see there we go the actual 50 megapixel photo was on the left with the
s23 we both agreed that this one's the worst yeah I don't know why and you know
mess up the colors look at the colors too I don't know what happened there all
the colors look at this carpet and then right there yeah it's really weird so
the pixel to my eyes look the best but you like the iPhone the best I saw a lot
more detail on that one huh next up this is an ultra wide against the Sun so it's
meant to be super tough yeah this has the worst flaring yeah it
kind of looks magical but if you don't want that there yeah between the center
and the right to the center has the least flaring however all the colors are
super messed up the hdrs are really messed up the one on the right
everything outside looks beautiful there's like some really nice glow in
her hair the colors look right I'm going with the right one yeah look at the HDR
over here it's horrendous there's nothing out there
um I go for the right one as well all right all right that's the s23 wow that
looks the iPhone suffers from really bad flaring wow now this is a detail shot
with 3x on all of them which means that the iPhone is digitally cropped in a 3X
same with a pixel from the main camera and the s23 actually has a 3X lens it's
surprising even though it has a 3X lens they don't look that much different it's
crazy they look so similar these all look great they all look almost
identical you have to look so closely to try to see some sort of difference
I'm gonna go with the left because on some of these you can like really see
the brush strokes and all like the details oh okay yeah you can also see
that what they had before yeah written on there I'll go to the left as well
that's the pixel wow even without a three inch lens dang next step we have
kind of like a macro shot or at least as close as I could get now this one
definitely looks the closest yeah as far as that looks nice
um this one looks the least close but I do like how that looks the most it's a
tough choice though because if you want to get close to a bug or something else
you want that extra Zoom but then this one there's a lot of detail in those
leaves that's true petals yeah I think you convinced me I'll go with that one
oh I was gonna go with that one what okay well let's vote again vote
separately all right pixel on the left iPhone this
is actually the closest you can get that's a crop right there yeah because
the iPhone does not have the macro mode like the Pro Models get apple is just
limited everything oh my goodness this is just a regular 1X no 50 megapixel on
the s23 I like how the left one is brighter uh but there's a little bit too
much blown out area there as well so I think the middle looks the most natural
to me I think the middle looks the worst it looks a little too dark the left and
the right look basically really identical but the loved ones just
brought up a little more and I like that so I'm going with the left okay left and
right iPhone and s23 here all right next up we have a 3X to me the center and the
right one are a little too blown out like his face just kind of loses some
detail so I'm picking the left one me too it looks the most true to life you
have some natural shadowing on the face it looks realistic and I'm going left
that's the pixel once again it's just killing all the three that's what the
digital crop too digital crop one amazing maybe Samsung shouldn't have put
a 3X lens yeah or put a better one I don't know all right we have a portrait
portrait this is weird yeah what's going on here Sky's blurred out but then the
trucks Stand Out parts of it aren't oh yes this is a shot where it's typical
and you don't want to see the cars that's why you put in the portrait mode
man that left one is so dark yeah I like the song the Rays the color but it's
really dark it's so dark I think I'm going to the right yeah default right
one that's the iPhone killing those portraits all right this is a cropped in
detail shot this one has a bunch of artifacting lots of detail
um that kind of stuff the one on the right also looks like it has a little
bit of a shutter lag or something a little bit of smearing so I'm
going for the middle
wow it's a lot warmer what color is the the cabinet or the table it's it's like
this basically I have no idea why that mode is changing
it okay now this is a little bit different this is 5X
has to be the center this is blown out here that's really blurry Center
looks good
that is the pixel it actually has 5x Optical looks amazing compared to from
1X digitally cropping in to 5x which is the maximum this is a sunset shot yeah
you take these shots a lot of times you're driving sunset's beautiful and
you want to get a photo I'm voting for the middle it's the most Moody yep
that's the iPhone wow I guess the colors really pop like the sunset colors and
everything okay now getting into the night mode shots wow here is a portrait
on the main camera what's with the center why does it look distorted
it does you look at her head her head stretched out yeah this one looks very
almost like a little bit of artifactiness or like digital crop but
like the right one is there's no detail on her face they all kind of aren't
great this needs the s23 ultra on the pro Max I think the left one is the best
in this situation I think I'll have to agree I'll go with the left one
all right that's the pixel and that's because you can't take a one exporter
you have to basically take 2x which I got closer on the other two yeah but the
Galaxy stretched her out yeah next up this is basically just night mode it was
very very dark in my hallway the left one is really dark the center one looks
weird because you can't tell if it's day or night or what's going on
the right one looks more natural to me I think I'm gonna go with that I agree
so far the Samsung's not doing great at night all right we have a night mode
selfie portrait so it's even more difficult selfie portrait wow it just
gets worse that looks badass this looks like iPhones five years ago potato
and I wonder if that's the iPhone if Apple's limiting it uh I don't know what
that light's coming from I'm guessing it shines a little bit of light and it's
blue or something I don't know you guys look great in the left one yeah the left
one looks nice left oh my goodness it's amazing yeah galaxy wow that's a great
selfie what's wrong with the iPhone I think it's because with portrait mode it
needs more light and I guess it just I don't know dude that Samsung looks great
and this is natural blur in the background so it's not portrait mode but
natural this is actually at night so another night mode shot oh interesting
it's at night this is hard because that looks like a morning shot to me right I
thought it was colors and stuff but it looks really good the bokeh looks the
most right uh like a DSLR too where this is kind of busy over here these are dark
especially the left one that is super dark so much of the details gone I'm
gonna go with the right it's still going with the right too
pixel pixel wow killing it yeah we have a whoa Astro mode yep that's
astrophotography so each one had a different shutter time keep that in mind
gotta be the left yeah there's way more stars here that you don't get here yeah
man the trees are so messed up especially the right ones the right
one's the worst they're so smudgy so keep in mind I had it on a tripod they
were all standing and the left ones the pixel because it had a four minute
exposure I even had 30 second and the Galaxy had like 10 seconds only I don't
even know why it didn't go higher than that I think they added that but just to
the ultra oh like a long one that's fine it's fifth I'm correct oh man I will say
that it's a pain waiting four minutes I've done it it's okay it's so annoying
and this is the last one it was insanely dark like almost Pitch Black it's gotta
be the right it's so bright what let me see
look at this you look it's like an alien yeah this is blue this is like artifacty
and weird really I think the face looks the most natural in that I think the
right is almost as bad as the center one for me the left one actually has some
sort of detail and looks a little more normal the other two looks so bizarre to
me it's too warm and I don't love the colors that the face like artificially
made like fake Photoshop blur or something you know I'm gonna go with the
right I would add some warmth to it but none look amazing okay the right is the
iPhone the left is the s23 what happened to the pixel I thought this was the
pixel yeah all right guys that is the last shot so go ahead and let us know in
the comments what you voted for or if you didn't vote what surprises popped up
let's add this up I'm ready you ready all right Angelica you go yeah
I got 12 for the iPhone 11 for the pixel so almost a tie and then seven for the
s23 the iPhone one how with the note telephoto that's insane I think the
iPhone did terrible even though sometimes I didn't choose it it sucks
that Apple's selling a 800 phone with cameras that are limiting in so many
different ways but for me the pixel one I got nine nine and then the pixel got
13. and honestly I did think the Samsung would perform better yeah than what we
got here and I think it's just because the pixel took some of the shots away
yeah just the 3x lens is just not performing that well yeah like almost
like if they would have just used that 50 megapixel and cropped in like the
pixel is doing it would have had a better result in some of those shots
there so thank you guys for watching we're also gonna do one with s23 ultra
the pixel again and the 14 pro Max so click that Circle above to subscribe
