welcome to another camera comparison so this time I have the honor magic 5 Pro versus the s23 ultra
and then the iPhone 14 pro Max now you'll see that the video looks different with the magic and then
the Samsung and then the iPhone that is because right now I am recording 4K with the front-facing
cameras but with the Samsung and the Apple I have enabled the Cinematic with apple and then
the portrait video here with the Samsung so that's why it looks a little bit blurred the background
because I wanted to test that out as well and while the honor is not doing it because it doesn't
have that feature so these are the front facing cameras we've got 4k on all three of them which
is quite rare for me to actually say that because normally I am doing camera comparisons for Chinese
phones that just don't have 4K of the front facing cameras normally they just cap out at 1080p so
image stabilization here is electronic and looking over these little rocks and things it seems to
be reasonably steady but one of them to me at least looks quite a bit steadier now how does
it expose this though very difficult conditions because we have bright sun in the background is
it exposing my face alright or am I Overexposed and the audio sources I am swapping between all
three of them and you can hear that difference in those microphones and audio quality 4K 30 frames
per second with our main cameras now it's panning around to see if there is any of that terrible
judder those micro stutters the drop frames shouldn't be happening with the kind of spec we
have with all three of these phones here now there is a tiny little bit of a breeze so if we pick up
any wind noise that is not a very good sign at all so I'm just walking over these rocks stabilization
both Optical and electronic across all three and now we have the sun starting to set soon
reflection off the sea here difficult and that's where you sometimes do see that micro
Jetta I'm going to play the microstata the drop frames hopefully not here with our main cameras
and audio quality which one do you think has the best microphones out of all three of these phones
Ultra wide video now 4K 30 frames per second so we have 12 megapixels with the iPhone 12
with the Samsung and they're now on our magic 5 pro has a 50 megapixel Ultra wide
camera now there is a limitation of the 15 minutes with 4K video with the honor
which is a bit of a pain here so this is of course all electronic image stabilization
it's the short jog now
let's start that stabilization and when I pan around now there should be no Jetta
coming through now I have noticed with other phones for example the Oppo Find X6 Pro that
I recently just did camera comparison on a lot of data coming through when you pan with these
kind of condition conditions where the exposure does change quite a bit and hopefully no Jada
doesn't seem to be any with the Samsung or the iPhone at least Zoom cameras across all three of
them now so we have of course the s23 ultra with it's 10 times optical zoom three times Optical
with the iPhone 14 pro Max and then I do have a four times at the moment set with the magic
5 Pro and I will take that up to now it's 10 times preset which you can see is looking pretty washed
out and I'll just apply a bit of digital here to the iPhone so that's now five times digital Zoom
and take that up to now 15. times the difference here with the Samsung and that kind of Zoom label
with a video even 4K 30 it's not looking very good I would keep to their optical zoom maximum
4K 60 frames per second with our main camera so we've got Optical and electronic image
stabilization and yes I am riding a bike that's why I'm moving so fast I thought it would be
a good test here of that stabilization there's a lot of people around here so I'm going pretty slow
and put all these bumps and rocks up ahead which camera looks the steadiest
as I just climb up this little section here should be a lot smoother being 60 frames per
second now you should be able to notice that difference low light video this is 4K three
frames per second with our main cameras and across all three of them they don't seem to
have any issues with the focus pulsing in and out now these little LED lights that I do have here
which are basically Christmas lights they are yellow in color okay so it should look yellow
and as I move about here you can see there is this lens flare thing happening with this LED
light that I've got right there you can see it on the magic 5 Pro the iPhone 14 pro but
you can actually see it with the Samsung and oh well maybe a tiny little bit there it is
but it's very hard to see so that's good to see that their anti-glare coating is working there
quite well with the video and still no issues with the focus now this area that I'm going
over to this is very dark this patch here now looking at this tree so we could have problems
which one now looks the sharpest in very poorly lit conditions now here and we'll take a look at
palm tree up here and maybe a few Stars will come through probably not the quality is looking very
grainy and noisy across all three of them over to still images now so this is a selfie portrait
and I like the stitching across all three they're not too bad the iPhone straight away doesn't win
for me this shot it's got the white balance too warm I mean look at my jacket the jacket should
be black so it's between the magic 5 Pro and then the s23 ultra I do prefer here because of
the colors being more correct the honor magic 5 Pro rear portrait mode all three of them do
look very good it's not until you really crop in then you can see some differences so the magic 5
Pro's got a lot of noise to it over sharpening the iPhone 14 pro also does have a bit of noise
there and if you look at my daughter's hair and the colors of her here and the skin tones I think
with the stitching too that it is the Samsung care that does look the best out of these three
this shot of the very bright Violet flower here those different shades on the pedals we captured
the best on the Samsung the iPhone is a close second and the honor well it's just clipping
those very bright Violet colors and it's over saturated too the shot of my cat Vera the Samsung
unfortunately just didn't land us the focus the shutter lag is what made it kind of blurred very
moved slightly and that is why it came out like that now when you zoom in they look very similar
to the iPhone and the honor but I give the honor here the win because the whites just below on
around her chin on her chest area aren't perfectly white she was just rolling around in some dirt
before so the colors came out more correct the white balance the whites with the honor
with this difficult HDR shot most people would probably say hey the iPhone is the best but take
a little look at it a little longer now you'll see that it's Overexposed the sun some of those leaves
in the background now the bokeh background blur with the magic 5 Pro does look the best
but I think that well more balanced photo is the Samsung here is the pick and the one I will go for
Ultra wide shot now at first glance they all look very similar however look at the details
of the cliffs and the background and especially the sky this is where the Samsung has slightly
Overexposed this it's not really capturing those details of the very light cloud above the tower
so I actually prefer this shot I think it's the honor that has the best ultrawide with the main
camera now you will see again it's the honor that does capture that very light Cloud just
above the tower you can see the upper right hand side the iPhone seems to be a little bit
Overexposed we're not really Overexposed but a little bit too line areas especially with the
grass and the front there and the way it's blowing things out and the over sharpening
on the iPhone and the Samsung again I think very close though the honor does the best job
with this main camera photo Zoom cameras now so there really is no contest because the Samsung
has a 10 times optical zoom versus the other two with only three times Optical and as you
can see as I apply a better digital Zoom with the other two to bring them up to the 10 times
Optical level of the Samsung it's still well ahead and a close second is the magic 5 Pro
Ultra wide cameras again so the Samsung it's Overexposed a little bit it's in third place with
this shot so it's between the honor and then the Apple now when you do crop and this is a 200 crop
now you can see that with the iPhone it's a little over sharpened a little too much I do prefer here
the magic five Pros shot yet another shot will you tell me Chris they all look exactly the same well
no look at the yellow the pedals of this flower you can see that the Samsung it didn't do the best
job here didn't get all those different shades of yellow whereas the iPhone and the honor they did
and I think due to the colors being just slightly more accurate it is the honor for me that is the
best out of these but it's very very close between the iPhone and the honor yikes a low light selfies
uh cross all three of them they are terrible but you can see that the magic 5 Pro is the dullest
so that's definitely third place there's a lot of noise with the iPhone but then the Samsung
looks a little blurred so those two really kind of a tie there then not good none of these photos
main rear cameras using the night modes now so for me straight away it's the iPhone that comes
in third place with this shot now the s23 does look the brightest here but there's a lot of
noise in the sky there's also a lot of noise with the iPhone the magic 5 Pro does however handle the
details with the lights a little bit better the exposure of that compared to the s23 ultra but
then the s23 ultra brings out more details in the mountain here even though it looks like a bit of
a noisy washed out kind of oil painting all three of them aren't really that great but I think it is
just the s23 ultra taking the lead all three shots are good here now the honor has the correct white
balance it handles those LED Christmas lights the best it has I believe the best amount of details
around that area and then we do have the lens flare unfortunately with the honor and then the
iPhone the iPhone shot is great but it's a little over sharpened the s23 ultra doesn't quite get
the white balance but it has the least lens flare you barely even notice it on the top of the globe
where you do see it with the other two however its background's a little more washed out so they're
all really trading blows here with this shot here you notice that they are all using different color
science now the s23 ultra has a definite purple tint to the whole thing a bit of a bluish tint
to the iPhone 14 pro Max and closer to true life is the honor but it's still off a little bit now
there's a lot of noise with the night sky with the Galaxy s23 Ultra the iPhone has the least
noise with this guy however the Galaxy does get a brighter image capture a little bit more and I
do like the way the honor handles the sky color but it's a little noisy so for me it's kind of a
draw between all three of them none of them really here aced the shot or did a really good job of it
now this photo talk on a very dark patch and you can see that the Galaxy s23 Ultra yes is
the brightest the iPhone is a bit of a washed out Outer kind of focus miss the magic 5 Pro I
do like it I like the details the different colors the sharpness it's just really not bright enough
so it's the s23 ultra that wins this photo recapping my findings here remember this is
personal opinion you don't have to agree with me on this but let me know in the comments if you do
you don't now I think the video quality was the best overall with the Samsung s23 Ultra however
4K 60 the iPhone did seem to be quite stable they're quite good but I give the win to the
Samsung for the video because video is also two things not just the image but also the audio and
audio was Superior with the Galaxy s23 Ultra portrait shots s23 Ultra Zoom shots s23 Ultra
Stills they were close at times but I think the daytime Stills the magicfy pro tended to have the
better colors was sometimes they're winning out a few of those shots when it came to low light
they all kind of traded blows and third place was definitely for low light the iPhone and I think it
was just the Samsung s23 Ultra that pulled ahead because the magic 5 tended to be a little bit too
dark but some of those night shots they all kind of need a little bit of work there so thank you
so much for watching my side by side comparison here I hope to see you in the next one bye for now
