what's happening everyone my name is alex and welcome back for this camera comparison we have
the samsung galaxy s21 and the newly released poco f3 now i've done another camera comparison
between the poco f3 and the iphone 12 but right after that video the poco f3 got an update and
i feel that after that update it does better for nighttime pictures so i figured i'll make another
camera comparison so you can actually see how it does now after that update of course throughout
this video we're gonna see a variety of daytime and nighttime picture sample videos and selfies
of course just before we start make sure to press that like button and let's begin by checking out
some nighttime pictures because that's what i feel that it does the best after that update
so both the samsung galaxy s21 and the poco f3 support a night mode for the main camera and
the ultra white camera and of course the first pictures that you're seeing on the screen right
now are taking the main camera and that night mode compared to the previous software version that we
had on the poco f3 when i did the other comparison of the iphone 12 i feel the poco f3 has improved
quite a lot now the pictures are much sharper and some of them are actually better than the
pictures taken by the s21 now overall if you look at all pictures i think that the majority of the
pictures are still a bit better from the samsung galaxy s2 mostly because they are a bit sharper
but when compared to the previous software version that we had on the poco f3 this is a
major improvement in my opinion so these were some pictures they took with the main cameras and that
night mod next we are moving on to some pictures they took the ultra wide cameras
and of course a night mode and once again when compared to the pictures they took um
before for the other camera comparison of the iphone 12 before this some software update the
poco f3 does do much much better now if you do look at the pictures side by side of course the
samsung galaxy s 21 does better in every single picture mostly because the pictures are a bit
sharper but we have take into consideration the prices of these devices the samsung galaxy s 21
is almost double the price of the poco f3 but overall i am pleased to see the improvements
that we got them for the poco f3 after that software update next we are going gonna move on
and check out some pictures they took during the day with the samsung galaxy s21 and of course the
poco f3 and you're gonna be surprised a lot of the pictures that i took look very similar in between
these two devices even though that one is almost twice the price okay so we are starting with
some portrait mode pictures now looking at my girlfriend's face in all these portrait
pictures that i took well i think her face and the colors on her face look better from the poco f3
the samsung galaxy s21 almost has a filter over her face so you can't exactly see anything on her
face everything becomes kind of like a blur if i may say so overall i'm gonna say that for portrait
mode pictures um the poco f3 does a bit better well i guess it depends who you ask because some
people may actually like those some smoothing effects that the s21 puts over the subject
but for me personally i feel that for portrait mode pictures the f3 did a bit better moving on to
some zoom pictures and here i've done five times zoom but keep in mind that the samsung galaxy
s21 has a telephoto lens where the poco f3 doesn't have a telephoto lens so everything that you're
taking um every picture you're taking on the poco f3 with the zuma it's going to be digital zoom so
here clearly the samsung galaxy s 21 does better in every single picture because most pictures
are sharper for pictures taking the ultra wide cameras on the back of the two devices the first
thing you'll notice of course is the fact that the samsung galaxy s21 has a somewhat wider field of
view so you can see a bit more in those pictures when compared to the pictures taken by the poco f3
also dynamic range in most pictures taken by the samsung galaxy s21 is better but other than
that the colors aren't that much different the picture sharpness isn't that much different but
overall yes the samsung galaxy s21 does seem to do a bit better for those pictures taking the ultra
white cameras as for the pictures taking the main camera as well for some of these pictures i have
to say that i was quite surprised to see how close the pictures looking between the ones taken by
the s21 and the f3 some of them even have pretty much identical colors the picture sharpness is on
pretty much the same so you can't really go wrong if you're taking pictures with the main cameras
and during the day both devices do equally good now maybe the s21 does better for dynamic range
in some of those pictures but not in all and as i said them a lot of these pictures are extremely
close to each other so i'll let you guys watch a few more pictures and i will be right back
so what do you think about those daytime pictures do you prefer the pictures taken
by the poco f3 or the ones taken by the galaxy s21 definitely leave a comment and let us know
next we are going to move on and check out some sample videos and of course i have
videos taken during the day and at night and with the poco f3 the maximum recording resolution for
the main camera on the back is 4k at 30 frames per second but if you are recording the ultra
wide camera the maximum recording resolution for that is 1080p the same goes for the front facing
camera on the poco f3 where of course the galaxy s 21 you can record at higher resolutions so i'll
let you guys watch those sample recordings and i will be right back all right we have a quick
video test between the samsung galaxy s21 and the poco f3 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
now this is the maximum resolution that you can record the pogo f3 with the samsung galaxy s2 you
can actually record at the higher um resolution so i'm going to stop here and pan right slowly
and then slowly back left it's also a bit windy and i'm probably gonna hear some traffic
as well aside from my voice and next i guess we're gonna run for a bit just so you can see how the
image stabilization does um while running so yeah this is our recording with the main camera on the
back of the poco f3 and the samsung galaxy s21 would look like under these conditions
we are moving on to another quick recording between the samsung galaxy s21 and of course
the poco f3 now for this recording i'm using the ultra wide lenses on the back of the two devices
and with the samsung galaxy s21 i'm recording in 4k at 30 frames per second
where the poco f3 the maximum recording resolution for the ultrawide camera is
only 1080p at 30 frames per second so once again you will see a difference
for the video quality so i'm going to stop here for a bit to pan left slowly basically
and back right
and walk towards my car so yeah this is how recording would the
ultrawide cameras on the back of these two devices would look like
we are moving on to another quick recording between the samsung galaxy s21 and of course
the poco f3 now for this recording i'm using the front facing cameras and the maximum recording
resolution on the galaxy s1 is 4k at 60 frames per second i believe where the maximum recording
resolution for the front facing camera on the poco f3 is 1080p so you will definitely notice
a difference in the video quality of course filming the front-facing cameras so yeah
this is how recording done with the front-facing cameras on these two devices would look like i'm
also going to walk a bit faster so you can see how the image stabilization looks while walking
so yeah front facing cameras on the s21 and the poco f3 all right we have a quick recording in
low light between the samsung galaxy s21 and of course the poco f3 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
we're gonna walk this way where it gets a bit darker just so you can see
how both devices do if it's dark so i'm gonna stop here we'll pan right slowly and i can definitely
see way more on the screen of the samsung galaxy s21 we'll pan left for a bit and walk straight
so yeah this is our recording with the main cameras and 4k 30 frames per
second between the f3 and the samsung galaxy s21 would look like at night
we are moving on to our second recording in low light between the samsung galaxy s21 and the poco
f3 for this recording i'm using the ultra wide lenses on the back of the two devices and once
again recording in 4k 30 frames per second the s21 but to the poco f3 the maximum recording
resolution if you're using the ultra wide lens is 1080p at 30 frames per second so we're doing 1080p
at 30 frames per second with that one so yeah this whole recording in low light between these two
devices would look like if you're using the ultra wide lenses on the back backs of the two devices
and as you've seen for yourself the poco f3 does keep up with the samsung galaxy s2 and mostly when
you're recording with that main camera on the back and recording in 4k at 30 frames per second so i
can't really say that it has bad video quality but overall yes the galaxy s21 has the edge
for video recordings but let's remember the price difference okay moving on to some selfies well for
daytime selfies they both seem to do pretty good i only took one selfie unfortunately during the day
i thought i took more but i only had one but for nighttime selfies the galaxy s21 does
better um in both situations mostly because the samsung galaxy s21 has a night time modE
for selfies where the poco f3 doesn't so what do you guys think about the poco f3 after the last
update before for the other camera comparison that i mentioned earlier with the iphone 12 i
didn't feel the poco f3 did as good but now i feel that it does much much better alright
