what's happening everyone my name is Alex and welcome back for this camera comparison we have
the newly released xiaomi 12 Lite and the iPhone 13. now don't misunderstand the purpose of this
camera comparison through this video I just want to show you what a budget friendly device like the
xiaomi 12 Lite can do when compared to a flagship like the iPhone 13. keep in mind that the iPhone
13 is double the price of the xiaomi 12 Lite alright so as always through this video you're
gonna see a variety of daytime and nighttime sample pictures and videos we have portrait
mode pictures we have zoom pictures we have on pictures taking the ultra wide cameras and
much more and with that being said don't forget to press that like button and let's begin by checking
out some portrait mode pictures that I took with both devices alright so looking at the portrait
note pictures that I took and closely looking at the edge around the subject so the edge detection
around the subject it seems that the iPhone 13 does slightly better than the xiaomi 121 Lite
mostly if you look close enough at Laura's hair so you're gonna notice that iPhone 13 does better as
for colors I feel that the iPhone 13 has the more natural looking colors where the xiaomi 12 Lite
has the more saturated looking colors so as I said before more Instagram ready pictures so I can see
that some people may actually prefer the pictures from the xiaomi 12 Lite personally I prefer the
pictures from the iPhone 13 but definitely leave a comment down below and let me know your thoughts
do you like the portrait mode pictures from the iPhone or the ones from the 12 light moving on
to some five times Zoom pictures well here keep in mind that neither device has a telephoto lens
on the back so everything that we are seeing is digital Zoom now here the pictures look fairly
similar from both devices so in reality none of them does that great for five times zoom
on pictures and I personally thought that the xiaomi 12 Lite would do better mostly because
the main camera on it is an 108 megapixel sensor but look into those pictures I can't really tell
the difference in between the two devices so for five times Zoom pictures I can't really say that
one is better than the other one in reality none of them are that great it next we are moving on to
some pictures taken to the ultra white cameras on the back of the two devices the first thing I've
noticed here is the fact that the iPhone 13 has the somewhat wider field of view for that Ultra
wide camera so you can see a bit more in those pictures taken by the iPhone 13. now for colors
it seems that the iPhone 13 has the colors that are a bit closer to reality so what I was seeing
with my own eyes were the xiaomi 12 Lite has the more saturated looking color so you may actually
prefer those more saturated looking colors as for dynamic range that one seems to be better in the
pictures taken by the iPhone 13. but once again leave a comment down below and let me know your
thoughts which one do you prefer for those Ultra wide pictures next we're gonna move on and check
out some pictures they took the main cameras on the back of the two devices as always all the
pictures are taken on auto mode and about a second apart from each other now the first thing I've
noticed here is the fact that the xiaomi 12 Lite has the wider field of view for that main camera
I think this is the first time when I've seen that I'm in a camera comparison with the iPhone so you
can definitely see more in the pictures taken by the xiaomi 12 Lite when compared to the pictures
taken by the iPhone 13. so kind of impressive in a way I'm gonna say now for picture sharpness
it almost looks like the xiaomi 12 Lite has the somewhat sharper picture just a bit better than
the iPhone or maybe it's just me but that's how it looks to me as for colors once again I feel that
with the iPhone 13 you're gonna get more natural looking colors where UDA xiaomi 12 light you're
gonna get a bit more saturated color so it really depends on what kind of pictures some you like
overall I can't really say that one phone does so much better than the other one and as I said it
is quite impressive that the xiaomi 12 Lite has a wider field of view for the main camera than
the iPhone 13. so I have a few more pictures that I want you guys um to see and definitely leave a
comment down below and let me know your thoughts which one do you like for that main camera
next we're gonna move on and check out some nighttime pictures so both device support a
night mode for the main camera and for the ultra wide camera and we are starting with the pictures
they took with the main cameras now the first thing I've noticed whenever I was taking those
night type pictures is the fact that the iPhone 13 takes those nighttime pictures faster than
the xiaomi 12 Lite with the xiaomi 12 light you do have to hold your hand steady for like three
to five seconds where the iPhone takes some one of those pictures in about one or two seconds so
something to keep in mind now looking at those pictures there is really no comparison for that
night mode and the main camera so the iPhone 13 does better in every single picture mostly
because the pictures are much sharper than the same pictures that I took with the xiaomi 12 Lite
so for the main camera which has kind of excited at the beginning when we've seen
the pictures taken during the day well it is a bit disappointing to see those pictures from
that main camera on the xiaomi 12 Lite so for the night mode and the main camera the iPhone 13 will
definitely do better now moving on to pictures taking the ultra wide cameras and the night mode
things turn around them so the xiaomi 12 Lite does seem to do better in every single picture
when compared to the iPhone 13. so it seems that that Ultra wide camera on the back of the 12 light
is better than the ultrawide camera that we have on the back of the iPhone 13. I was definitely not
expecting that now in all fairness the iPhone 13 doesn't have the best Ultra wide camera so I've
seen many phones that tend to do better with the ultrawide camera than the iPhone 13. so if
you look at those pictures taken by the 12 light pretty much all the pictures are sharper than the
pictures that I took with the iPhone 13. so for the ultra wide camera the 12 light does better
so I feel that if you want to take nighttime picture to the 12 light you're probably better
off using that Ultra wide camera than the main camera next we're gonna move on and check out
some Sample video recordings that I've done with both devices of course during the day and at night
here I've noticed that the 12 light does seem to do better than last year's 11 light so the
video quality is a bit better the stabilization is also pretty good compared to stabilization that
we get on the iPhone 13 and even the microphone recordings from the 12 light are somewhat better
than the ones that we get from the iPhone 13 but that seems to be the case with most phones
these days now I did notice that um the videos from the 12 light do seem to have some kind of
um pulsing focusing on issues mostly if you look further away are gonna notice that so overall it
is an improvement compared to last year's and 11 light but still a bit far off from
the quality that you're gonna get from the iPhone 13. so I'll let you guys watch those
recordings and I'll be right back okay we have a quick video recording between the xiaomi 12 Lite
and of course the iPhone 13. for this recording I'm using the main cameras on the back of the
two devices and recording in 4k at 30 frames per second for the xiaomi 12 Lite that is the
maximum recording resolution for the main camera so 4K at 30 frames per second of course with the
iPhone 13 we could also do 4K at 60 frames per second but for this particular recording
we are just doing 4K at 30 frames per second with both devices I'm gonna stop here I guess
we're gonna pan left slowly actually let's walk all the way up here we're gonna pan left slowly
and back right I guess I'll walk straight for a bit just so you can
see how that stabilization works I can also do a bit of running let's try that
not too much though because it's super hot out so yeah main camera's 4K 30 frames per
second okay and next I switched the cameras to the ultrawide cameras on the back of the Tomb devices
now if you are using the ultra wide cameras on the back of the xiaomi 12 Lite the maximum
recording resolution is 1080p at 30 frames per second of course with the iPhone 13 you can do
4K at 30 Fork at 60 frames per second of that Ultra wide um camera we're gonna turn around
and we'll walk this way for a bit
I guess I can even stop here and pan left
and up so kind of towards the Sun and back down so ultra weight cameras would xiaomi
12 Lite 1080p 30 frames per second and with the iPhone 13 forget 30 frames per second
and of course I also have a quick recording done with the front facing cameras on the xiaomi 12
Lite and of course on the iPhone 13. now once again if you're recording the iPhone 13 the
maximum recording resolution for that front-facing camera is a 4K at 60 frames per second where would
the xiaomi 12 lights the maximum recording resolution for the front facing camera is
1080p at 60 frames per second I'm currently doing 1080p at 30 frames per second we'll
spin around for a bit and I guess we can walk it this way a bit faster just so you can see how that
um stabilization works so yeah front-facing cameras on the xiaomi 12 Lite and the iPhone 13.
all right and we're moving on to a quick recording between the xiaomi 12 light and of course the
iPhone 13 in low light for this recording I'm using the main cameras on the back of the two
devices and recording in 4k at 30 frames per second with both devices as I mentioned earlier
14k at 30 frames per second is the maximum recording resolution for the xiaomi 12 light
so we're gonna Pan the left I'm actually gonna cross the street it is quite dark around here
so you can see how the footage looks in the darkness basically
so from what I'm seeing on the screens here the image looks a bit better from the iPhone 13 but
we'll have to see how this footage looks on the computer so yeah main cameras 4K at 30 frames
per second so what do you guys think about those sample recordings the 12 light definitely doesn't
do bad for a budget friendly device in my opinion but again it could be a bit better next we're
going to move on and check out some selfies and we're starting with some Daytime selfies and just
as I was expecting the iPhone 13 will do better for selfies even though the 12 light doesn't do
bad for those daytime selfies as for nighttime selfies well in reality neither device does
that great but if I would have to choose one maybe the iPhone 13 does a bit better than the 12 light
but once again leave a comment down below and let me know on your thoughts so what do you
guys think about the 12 light is it worth its price is it better than last year's 11 light
definitely leave a comment and let me know thanks for watching and I'll see you guys in the next one
