Given that the 10x zoom isn’t a priority to me (even though it looks fabulous on the ultra), I’m going to go with the regular S21. Thanks so much for guiding my decision!

I have taken a screenshot of the 30x moon comparison and looked at the results. Surprisingly, the results are very similar. The S21 Ultra photo just has more craters (the S21 doesn't really show the Tycho crater), but many other craters/structures look basically identical with both phones! For example the rays of the Copernicus crater look nearly identical. The S21 moon photo also doesn't look more pixelated! This suggests that the S21 uses a lot of machine learning for the moon. Samsung already confirmed that they use machine learning for the zoom. Due to diffraction, it's physically definitely not possible that the S21 captures the same amount of detail from certain(!) moon craters.

How is the image from s21 sharper and more detailed than that of s21 ultra at exactly 1.47 in the video. The texture on the rock is far more detailed on s21 image and s21 ultra has some sort of motion blur or softness on the texture. Why is this? Was s21 ultra moving a little when the pic was taken? Even at 3.41 the texture on the concrete crocodile looks much more detailed on s21 image. This is confusing and disappointing at the same time. A more expensive phone taking less sharp images is unacceptable.

I love this. It just shows that Samsung's wasting space with their 108mp sensors. Pixel binning does a decent job saving it from being bad in low light, but a 12mp sensor if the same size would have been WAY better across the board. It's just so frustrating. A 1/1.3" sensor wasted by tiny pixels. They could have even made it 16mp and had a much better camera. Tired of the spec war, they think having big numbers gets them sales, when really they just end up in a downgraded experience vs what could have been. Even a 50mp or 32mp sensor at that size would have been better. I just don't get it. And then when shooting 1080p, they have to bin down 32 pixels to 1, but low light video isn't great because at some point the binning can't overcome the lack of light. I can't wait for a company to release a sensor of this size (or larger) at 12, 13 or 16mp.
