iPhone 16 Pro Max vs GoPro Hero 13 Black - Stabilization and Video Comparison

[@RonaldBrown59]

Interesting testing, both of them had their strengths and weakness. In the end they were both very good. Great video Shawn, thanks for sharing.

An interesting comparison indeed. GoPro is definitely sharper and colours are good. I’ve heard the cameras on the latest iPhone have taken a backward step. Personally, in bright daylight conditions I prefer the image on GoPro to just about everything else out there. In low light it’s a different story but I never use an action camera in those conditions and this is when my iPhone 14 Pro Max does a fantastic job and really shines. One camera/phone cannot do everything well. Thanks for the review as always.

Great feedback. Thanks for your comment!

[@Joshua-Megatola]

100 percent agree to your comment.

More detail in the clouds on the GoPro. Also the GoPro shows more detail in the grass especially from further away. Was the GoPro set to 10 bit?

[@LouisLuzuka]

This is a great way to see how much they compare 😮

[@raymondnelson4586]

Do a 3 way comparison between iPhone 16 pro max vs go pro vs Dji. But do a blind comparison and have people vote on.

Good idea

I prefer videos from GoPro in this test. Image stabilisation is also a bit better, but iPhone is also doing a nice job here. The only negative is visible distortion when shooting with wide angle. I'm iPhone 15 Pro user - so no bias for Apple products.

[@AirPhotography]

Yes, when I’m turning with the wide you really notice it on the iPhone

[@VacayCebu]

My GoPro is my daytime camera for sure. But when in lower light I use my iPhone with the InstaFlow stabilizer: the one you recently reviewed.

[@derekdunn9643]

I have that same Smallrig you used. Always have it in my camera bag. Neat accessory.

[@AirPhotography]

Indeed, I use it quite a bit

[@Dave610Jones]

The GoPro video quality looks better. Thanks for sharing this video, I just got back from Antigua and chose not to buy the GoPro. I’m going to Barbados next and think it’s worth getting the GoPro for that trip. Also adding the ND filter as well.

[@AirPhotography]

The ND filter set is pretty cool. I like how it auto detect and will adjust the settings automatically.

[@jasonhillone]

i would be more than happy with either

[@sebw3964]

I did not expected a Action Cam will look better like a 1400€ Phone that early 😂

[@RDens4d]

Interesting, the Go Pro in wide is actually pretty good. I’ve not bought one since Go Pro 5 😂. Maybe it’s time to get another

[@TheKayakCrew]

Wow, the GoPro image was better and I preferred its wider FoV.

[@graphguy]

always fun to compare... the i16 video is no better than i15. Neither apple stabilization can compare to the GP11-13.

[@TacoBel]

Depending on how you use it, there is professionally a jump, but not in standard video mode.

[@おいmizuno]

Do the Gopro is connected with T-MOBILE, Verizon or AT&T? Can you send/receive messages on GoPro?

[@Zorglub-lb2xm]

no its just wifi to send pictures to a device

[@TacoBel]

One thing to clarify is if the iPhone had action mode turned on at all, or if this was standard stabilization?

[@AirPhotography]

When I did the jogging test, I did stayed in there that I turned action mode on for the other ones action mode was turned off. It crops in pretty heavily when action mode is turned on.

[@SplonzYT]

First again, great vid

[@leonardomedeiros5408]

Action 5pro next, pleaseee

[@Joshua-Megatola]

Mate GoPro is king of action cameras.
