Does MEGAPIXELS really matter in Smartphones?

If you think more Megapixels means better image quality, you've to think again. In this video, I try to clear some misunderstandings about Megapixels and Smartphone cameras.

I was wondering how Samsung Image Software Processing will handle the 108MP sensor if they are going to really use it on the next Samsung Galaxy S11 series.

[@sauravus]

They have to do a really good job to pull it off

[@undercoverlord]

They didn't do very well

[@yashuteja594]

Megapixel doesn't matter..image processing matters..hit like saurav if you agree

I was going to spend the extra money on a phone with high megapxls, then i saw your video. it helped me soooo much!! thank you!! ALWAYS love watching you. you're a genius!!!!

[@imsushiltubid3031]

This was so important video of urs. Now the people got idea that mp is doesn't matter a lot to take a good photos and all

[@bidyutroy9591]

Your way of explanation of every thing about photography is excellent as I observed it from the 1st day I started watching your channel. Teaching profession will be your best career in future.

[@ilmatanela1816]

Pixel dimensions is key in term of image quality. Smartphones generally use small sized sensors, therefore, despite the improvement of technology, Apple's choice to stick with 12 mp is wise. Giving priority to improving dynamic range and high ISO performance. I would be curious to see an A3 print of a photo taken with one of these 1xx mpx phones. That said, we are still far from the day I'll use a phone as my main camera.

[@sauravus]

Agreed 💯

[@elu5ive]

an A3 print would look like shit, an A4 print would look like shit, an A5 print would look like shit as well. a pitch under 4µm is unacceptable in actual photography. those tens or hundreds of megapixels are like shiny objects for buyers who are like crows. they'll look at snapshots on their 2 megapixel phone screens anyway... and increasing file size from over 100 mp will force people to buy phones with bigger storage. all marketing. all greed

[@JohnDoe-fd9vv]

@@elu5ive the images get compressed down anyway. Most phones store photos into jpeg format, and most phones are starting to average 128gb storage. Not even mentioning all the free cloud storage options available. Unless you have an old phone, no one is complaining about storage space for photos anymore.

[@Jakiyyyyy]

I miss the moment where 5MP is really good compared to vga 1.2mp nokia.

[@manwhoos]

My iphone6 has 1mp camera it gives nice pictures

[@tahseenquamer4452]

Too the point... Explained in simple concept That's why I love ur videos and it give me motivation...

[@jorgelgofficial8805]

But how I know the other specs on the phone?? Megapixels are easy to know but where I see the sensor size and which one is a good size... where I look for the color information and how I know which one is the best??

[@DKNex]

That was great! I'm happy with my 16 Megapixels 😊

[@The-illuminated]

You dont news more than 12

[@bikramjitchowdhury8808]

Saurav....should I consider nikon D7500 over D7200 .Extra 4 megapixels does not needed right?

[@rickchakraborty505]

You r the one who explain those more easily and perfectly.....

[@akarshvs5774]

So what should I do with my 48mp camera on my galaxy m21🤔 it also costs me a big file size when recording videos

[@Humancnxn]

Thank you very much for this. It's very clear. The challenge now becomes a quantitative value for those other parameters. What do I look at on the phone's box that tells me how the phone will perform under low light? 50 vs 12 MP is quantifiable. Lumens, are quantifiable. But the other factors such as software quality are not. Do I look at the processor size/speed?

I hav a doubt.. If the image processing software is better in iPhone than Redmi.. Does tat mean i can take a picture in Redmi (12 mp) and send tat to iPhone to get a better image processed? ( considering both the phones hav 12mp and the sensor size should be the same too r8?) I am new to photography as a hobby.. So.. Do bear with my simple doubts 😅

Who has the best camera quality s7 edge or samsung M31s ?

[@rajanpatel8007]

So how one would know which sensor is the best...

[@blairakabane9504]

Look at the specs of the phone sometimes they display what camera sensor they use in the Smartphone. I think the best sensor is SonyImx

[@rajanpatel8007]

Right.. But most recent phones have this sony imx sensor but still it can't beat iPhone or pixel phones

[@moudimoudi6968]

Hey, thx for that, but how know the good number of the sensor , i don't even know their names , for example in laptops there's inter core i7 and i9 , and i9 is better(as for names) , 64 mp and 12 mp (as for numbers regardless the sensor )

On phones with more Mega Pixels, is it possible to choose a less Mega Pixels option, or will you be stuck with a "worse" camera?

[@sanidhyashrivastava8020]

I didn't say that more megepixel means better camera I just said that the larger is the sensor the better image quality we will get and the Samsung HMX 108 camera sensor is one of the biggest camera sensor in mobile phone .

[@iamakkkshay]

Bro I am satisfied with your opinion that more megapixels like 48, 64 , 108 are waste or not good. But I want to tell you that Mi redmi note 10 or cc9 pro has still bigger and better sensor and lenses than Iphone 11 / 11pro. If you use pixel binning technology of mi note 10/cc9 pro to capture image at 27MP resolution with 1.6micro meter pixel size than it will surely be better than iphone's 12MP resolution pic with just 1.4micro meter pixel size. and mi note 10 will further enhance with the use of Google camera application and will outperform iphone. I am sure because my redmi note 7s can take better low light pictures than my uncle's brand new Iphone 11. (You may see revatlas latest comparison of redmi note 8 and iphone 11 pro primary camera). By the way I always love your content and will follow you for all your super tips and tricks.
