iOS vs OneUI vs Android - Social Media Apps (Instagram & Snapchat)

If this is AI, you don't even need to voice over any of your videos anymore, it's undistinguishable from your actual voice.

If your voice is really made with AI, it sounds identical, i didn't notice any difference haha

[@briando8150]

For Snapchat on Android, if you use the Night Mode (moon icon top right), it will actually use the API for Pixel's Night Sight and images become noticably sharper.

[@MainInternetUser]

Why don't they use pixel camera services for all pictures ? Lazy devs want cash

[@whiteghost45]

Holy shit dude! What a hack. I mean, it's night and day difference

[@kindofanmol]

That AI voice is shockingly realistic. I didn't even notice. Wild times.

[@d.carter3850]

You're the reviewer that we need, not the one we deserve

[@MirelRC]

My conclusion after this video is: Google should force a new way of taking photos with those apps. Something to give those apps direct access to smartphones photo processing feature that are done by default camera app. All those photos taken with those apps on Google Pixel look like they were taken by a shoe.

[@MainInternetUser]

It's already possible devs just don't use it like snap only uses it for night sight

[@MirelRC]

@@MainInternetUser is the camera2 api?

[@superiortoall22]

Well when the Pixel 6 series came out, Google promised partnerships with social media apps for better quality photos and videos, guess that never happened. Not surprised, it's Google.

[@MohammadMuneeb-ot3sp]

​@@superiortoall22 Yes When Samsung can make it why pixel can't😭

[@craz7644]

I can't understand how u r giving points.. for one pic samsung does better and the other iPhone does better it's one on one and u give first place for iPhone? I can't understand.

[@RemingtonRowland]

It's so important to see how far Samsung has come in the software department that we can now consider a genuine competitor

[@algeriapower7242]

What the hell, these apps make android phones take a 4 megapixels photo in 2024 ? This is ridiculous 😡

[@ifrankenstein7455]

On Snapchat iphones are at 2 megapixels while androids are on 4 and 5 megapixels. It's always better to upload directly from camera roll

[@serktv6231]

But also...for social media it's not really necessary to have the highest mp. To save storage and faster upload and loading times plus compression. I don't know why he zooms in these photos. Reviewing those deviceson social media photos should be only based on the processing. The detail, hdr, contrast, skintone, whitebalance. Texture, noise control, nightmode stabilization etc

[@pinknailsworldseries367]

because many people are watching his videos on a 1080p or a 720p screen phone. these flagships are like 2K resolution smartphones, so you can clearly see a difference without zooming if you see of these irl, but not on the phone screens of majority of his viewers ​@@serktv6231

[@llzxm.x]

Actually it's not the fault of the mobile phones but it's the social media developers that ruined our pictures/videos quality.

[@ec-ye6my]

So basically everyone should be uploading directly from their camera roll if they care about quality, including iOS users. I would be interested to see a follow up video showing the differences in camera roll upload quality to these apps (making sure picture upload quality is set to max of course).

[@aliae72]

Yess the test of upload quality special video quality would be great to see

[@superiortoall22]

Eh not necessarily, Android social media apps still severely downgrade even camera roll uploaded photos and videos. You have to remember, one Android social media app is the same for thousands of different models versus Apple's 50 or so. It's easier for devs to make a more complete social media app for iPhones than the entirety of Android's. My 15 Pro Max uploads look way better than my OnePlus Open or S23 Ultra (when I had it) social media uploads.

[@Cpoint.200]

A few years ago Android was not a good choice for social media. But now, Android has nearly same experience as iphone. I am a long time ios User (from 4s to 14pro). Now ı have s23 for trying. And ı like it so much, it is my first Android device. And social media upload quality is very nice. If it was a question mark for u, dont worry about it.

[@ifrankenstein7455]

Ive been waiting for this video from you since forever. But I'm glad that the processing of the default camera app is what is used in the social media apps on the s24 ultra. I have personally found the s24 ultra to be usually underexposed and having a magenta tint with the default camera app and that is exactly what I saw in the social media apps which is a good thing but also a bad thing

This is video I've been waiting for. Phones are Soo good nowadays that the only thing we consumers need is how different apps function on each platform. I hope you make more videos like this. ❤

[@SkillslliK]

9:33 how can you call that a draw? That image is just better, because they're social media apps, ig android app dev have added saturation to every picture. Mostly in social media apps, or in general, people like bright images, and this is the only time where 15 pro max looses but, i don't know why, this felt a lot more biased towards iphone even if the photo's were out right trash from iphone in night mode.

[@FernandoAlvimYT]

I don't understand why he gave point to the Galaxy and iPhone... I don't agree with much, but the video was good.

[@notjhoan]

There's a weird sound in the background like an echo or a distortion of some sort but the voice itself is super realistic with no difference between AI and real voice over

Comparaison method is good but lacks important aspects: 1- Video Quality 2- direct upload from phone storage 3- Settings for best quality

[@azimayman407]

They are great, but sometimes it seems that 8 Pro or S24U is great, though. It is based on preference. I like how Snapchat can use all 4 camera lenses on the S24U with Night mode and more stable video than 15PM. In terms of night time, 8 Pro and S24U pulls ahead of 15 Pro Max. Overall, it's still 15PM, which is the most consistent, but they aren't different too much.

[@andreylucass]

Since the S10 keynote Samsung promised equal results on social media but we’re still getting there… Btw perfect voice over.

[@brightlove7276]

Samsung is already there but this review is just not saying the truth because we watching haven’t listened to him well but when you watch and listen to him clearly like you will know that there are cheats in there for Apple Thank you

[@andreylucass]

@@brightlove7276 I had the S10, N20U and the S22U and I've tested the S23U but none of them achieved this results, even after years of system and app updates. And this video is only about photos, videos still very inferior.

[@MatarM0]

i really cannot understand why snapchat doesn`t use the native camera api by default for photos you can get it better results using night mode and with videos you get the stabilization in director mode using s24u rn and it is really annoying when capturing videos using snapchat you need extra steps to get better results

[@ezradanger]

As a Pixel owner, it has never bothered me that I need to use my camera app and then upload from there. It just makes more sense to me even if the quality was identical.

[@ashyouknow7420]

7:07 You gave that point to the iPhone? The S24U shot clearly looked much better, did you even notice the HDR difference in them?

[@tycoon7885]

Lot of youtubers including this guy always mistake sharpened images for details. iPhone isnt naturally sharp, its processed sharp and you shouldnt be mistaking that for details. Samsung has no oversharpening going on but gets mistaken for less details when clearly it has details. As far as Pixel goes, it also oversharpenes same like iPhone in stock camera but in Insta and Snap it's just doing screen capture of viewfinder so its actually BAD. SHARPENING IS NOT SAME AS DETAILS. Know the difference when image is processed sharp vs naturally sharp iPhone's sharpness is just lots of software processing. It clearly looks oversharpened but i guess 90% people do not see it.

[@niveZz-]

every phone processes photos a certain way bcs the sensors are so small wouldn't be surprised if at some point machine learning is used to add more detail to make up for the sensor size and we wouldn't even know because it's so accurate

[@maghzaouimohammed2142]

Do you recommend taking photos from the camera and then uploading the image to the applications or taking the image using applications directly?

‏‪2:43‬‏ I took a shot in the camera app in (9:16) format, which is 9MP, and in the snapchat app, it is 7MP

Can i get the same result for S23 which was shown for s24 ultra in the above video??

[@Fastersonic]

How about the videos? I really want to know if IOS is the only OS able to upload 60fps stories and content to Instagram, and if yes, why?

[@thatjoshguy08]

Snapchat uses the CameraX API on the Pixel, which allows it to take higher resolution images and access native Night Mode processing. That isn't the case wirh Instagram though. Also, that AI voice is shockingly accurate!

[@chevy_21]

Bruh what? The voice is AI??!😳 WE NEED A VIDEO ON HOW YOU DID THIS ASAP ❗

[@IDTR]

I was shocked when I first heard it

[@AyukaAmameth]

@@IDTR ngl im still shocked sounded so similar

[@mahamib]

One important thing to note is that these apps use CameraX or 2 API. Both Galaxy S24 Ultra and Pixel 8 Pro support these APIs... But for some odd reason, all the extensions such as (Auto, Bokeh, HDR, Face Retouch) are deactivated on Pixel phones except for Night mode. This is probably why Pixel 8 Pro performed well when it comes to night mode. I don't know why Google hasn't enabled them yet. For now, the best way to get good quality snap on pixel 8 pro, is to use night mode even in daylight

[@marcorl100]

I'm really glad with the 24 Ultra. In photos I think its a tie with iphone, but in videos on social media apps, the iPhone is a lot better. Still not enough for me to to switch back to iphone anytime soon. Android rules!

People say the same photo uploaded from the gallery on an Iphone vs an Android also look different. Can you make a video or make an instragram post uploading the same photo from different devices and comparing que quality once uploaded on the platform?

[@nurwajidaradani4182]

Suggestion: You can also add images uploaded to ig/snapchat story from camera roll to see if there's any compression. You can include other apps as well like tiktok and facebook.

[@lakshay8363]

include videos too daytime and night time test lens switching in day and low light. Also include some 3d filters, many lags on androids so it would be good to see if they lag on flagships too or not.

If the photos are uploaded from the gallery (for example to an Instagram post), is the quality going to be the same on all 3 devices?

The biggest difference comes when you upload a video. The videos uploaded to Instagram stories through an iPhone are 10 times better than the same video being uploaded through any android phone

Hi deep tech review.. i have discovered something abnormal happening with pixel video recording. Could you test it out?
