What's up guys I'm Ben from authentech, and this is my camera comparison test of
the iphone SE 2020 vs the iphone 11 pro now this is shooting on the front
facing that selfie camera and as you can see right off the bat that SE is maxed
out at 1080p the 11pro can shoot here in 4k which makes it a much sharper looking
image now the SE is looking pretty soft and blurry
also notice the 11pro front-facing camera has a wider field of view which I
prefer plus the dynamic range looks nicer as well as the SE is sort of
blowing out the highlights the new iPhone se 2020 is starting at $400 the
iPhone 11 pro $1,000 now I want to know does this parts bin SE phone which
reportedly has the same camera sensor as an iPhone 8 which is from 2017 but now
benefiting from the A13 chip how well does it perform and compete against the
thousand dollar 11 pro I purchased both of these phones with my own money so
I'll be brutally honest now let's dive right in front facing camera video going
for a quick jog in stabilization tests another big win for the 11 Pro producing
much smoother looking footage while I'm walking under the trees just watch how
blown out the highlights get on the SE versus the 11 Pro accomplishing a
very impressive high dynamic range image exposing quite well for the dark shadows
under the trees while maintaining some clarity of the bright background and
water reflections. This is audio on iPhone SE, and this is audio on the iPhone 11 Pro, how does the
audio sound and compare audio test one two three four audio test one two three
four they both sound pretty good and comparable now they both feature stereo
audio recording and that's nice to hear switching to some daytime photos
starting on the rear facing camera the major trade-offs of the SES budget price
tag is that single rear camera now it's not terrible by any means and for the
average user it'll probably do you just fine
the two lenses it's missing from the 11pro are the ultra wide and 2 x
telephoto lens when we see these shots compared
by side you should be able to see that distinct differences not just in terms
of field of view but also the clarity details sharpness and perspective change
again for the average user the SE single lens still performs quite well for
everyday photos switching to portrait mode the SE can only do portrait photos
on people not objects like this flower on the 11pro on the front facing camera
the SC's photos look better than its video performance but again it's not as
wide-angle and it's only seven megapixel compared to the 12 megapixel on the
11pro it's exposing my face pretty well overall but sometimes at the cost of
blown out highlights again portrait mode looks fairly good to the 11pro similar
edge detection and nice colors overall in low-light this is another big area
the SE suffers greatly very odd Apple did not give us night mode on the single
rear lens so when the lights go way down the se looks pretty grainy noisy dark
underexposed and pretty disappointing for a 20/20 phone even Google pixel
includes night mode maybe you're not snapping a lot of low-light shots so you
won't mind missing it on the SE I'm just not sure why Apple didn't include it let
me know if you guys want to see my comparison of the pixel 3a versus the
iPhone se it's much closer in price and camera features jump into 4k video on
the rear camera the SE performs quite well in terms of video quality its
colors and HDR look really nice an iPhone has a magic sauce when it comes
to wide colour capture and extend a dynamic range for video the SE can even
record video up to 4k 60fps if you'd like which is impressive in itself know
again if I were stuck with the iPhone a scene I'd be greatly missing the ultra
wide lens which squeezes so much more into camera frame it produces fun
immersive and fresh perspectives and then the 2 x telephoto lens produces
these really crisp sharp looking videos just to show you the clear difference if
we try to digitally zoom in on the SE you can see just how pixelated and mushy
it looks there's no competing against an optical telephoto lens let's start off a
quick stabilization test with the ultra wide-angle not only does the 11pro look
much smoother and stabilization but I see is some pretty rough HDR
flickering effect you can clearly make out up in the skies switching to the
11pro is primary lens its field of view is still slightly wider which I
appreciate its stabilization is better as well though unfortunately can you see
some of that HD are flickering showing up in the sky I'd really like to see
Apple fix this issue a very important video detail is autofocus speed and
accuracy now my patented autofocus tests they both look pretty fast and accurate
with the 11 Pro coming in a few frames faster which is nice to know and
something to keep in mind impressively the SE can also keep up in terms of slow
motion it's able to record the same as the 11 Pro 120 fps at 1080p or even up
to 240 frames per second at 1080p as well motion is looking buttery smooth
and fluid and the 11 Pro is coming out a tad sharper with a little bit better
clarity both iPhones record quote time-lapse video with stabilization now
I've been complaining about this for years and I really wish our phones could
record a better hyperlapse GoPro when insta 360 has been doing this well for
years at least we have the 11 pro's ultra wide which helps to capture a more
immersive action time-lapse and it's stability looks better over the SE we
can't forget low-light video and this is honestly a pretty important test because
sure we might not be shooting photos or videos and pitch-black scenarios but as
common man we are often snapping shots in lower light conditions and how these
cameras handle ISO nose processing and how large the aperture is can affect our
outcome I'd vote the 11pro like an a-minus here and the SE a tad behind
maybe a straight B or B - how well do you think the SES camera performed
against the 11pro I'd say you're getting a pretty good camera for a pretty good
price now I popped my main sim into the SE to drive it daily test out all those
other little details like how does that a 13 chip actually feel fast and snappy
how about battery life on a full day's usage and that outdated screen and
uncomfortably large bezels did I notice them each
I'm I picked him up or did they slowly fade over time consider sticking around
and let me know down in the comments if you want to see my hands-on review of
this se is it actually worth that semi affordable price tag of $400 for an
iPhone or are you better off saving your money maybe going with a pixel or a $200
red meat or even saving up a little bit more money for maybe a used iPhone 10s
or 11 thanks so much for watching guys and until I see you next week let's live
