[@bensgadgetreviews]

Hey guys follow me on Instagram at bensgadgetreviews to see behind the scenes shots and more samples!

[@kreigerbailey3550]

Portland, JAMAICA in The Building!!

[@No-Name360]

Google definitely wins for a all over package

[@JohnRossOfficialYT]

I have alot of thoughts about this comparison. I'll watch it again

[@ssaini5028]

More proof that camera software is the key, amazing comparison🔥

[@ssaini5028]

Ben, what are you expectations for the Vivo X90 Pro?

[@mendellalvarado4285]

I love that you explain your thoughts in the comparisons, instead of just flash side-by-side photos too quickly without explanation, like many other reviewers. Excellent video, Ben! 👍

[@ElectricC0mpany]

Exactly. Sometimes we need context to know things like how accurate to the scene a camera is.

[@dujankees]

thank you for always including the 12s ultra i just think it has the most potential when it comes down to that 1 inch main cam

[@michaelcorcoran8768]

Yeah it sure beats all the North American reviewers were basically just like "here's Samsung and Apple."

[@orepoutanes]

Vivo x90 pro with the 1 inch sensor will be just crazy!

[@thatdeadjane]

Thanks for your hard work, Ben! This is one comparison that many of us have been waiting for! :)

[@darlingtonboakye7105]

Am a big fun of huawei,the fact that huawei is included in this video means huawei wins. The sound coming from mate 50 pro is outstanding. Thanks buddy for good work,keep it up.

[@TheBobmurray]

Ben, another really slick and professional review. Four camera phones comprehensively dealt with. Bloody good effort!

[@DronesTwinkies]

Yes! Ben, I loved it, and I can't wait for the next Vivo X90+. Awesome Ben.

[@Smithson52]

Very informative review! Happy to see I made the right decision with my Pixel 7 Pro. Also shout out to your dad for helping out 😊

[@dontpanic5604]

Excellent Ben. We get a good feel for the strengths and weakness of each phone. And the summary is spot on... Google well-rounded / Vivo high-ceiling / Xiaomi natural contrast. Sleep well!

[@amusetech]

Amazing work, Ben! Thanks for creating this vid. One thing about the VIVO's HDR is that it has a downside as well, like when you look at the sky at 9:08 - it's very uneven and I think I would prefer Google or Huawei in here (and overall - the Pixel). Nonetheless - you are the real deal, mate! Keep it going!

[@Vasharan]

Yeah, it looks like the camera is heavily adjusting the gain curve across the image after the shot has been taken, but the edge detection and zoning looks fairly basic, so you end up with some obvious dodging and burning artifacts. Reminds me of my b+w film days where I would cut out shapes to dodge and burn a print. Although I shouldn't be _too_ critical, algorithmic processing is not perfect in all situations, and even human photographers will go, "dang, I should have taken that shot with X settings instead of what I used" all the time. So Vivo nailing their shots 90% of the time is actually a better keep rate than most enthusiast photographers.

[@BOSS_1417]

Your camera comparisons are always the most unbiased and in depth covering a range of situations And you include the less famous but equally good phones like 12s ultra, x80pro, Huawei , findx5 pro Espescially glad to see the x80 pro included since to my eyes its images are the most appealing Your videos should be the mainstream benchmark for camera comparisons I wish your channel grows!

[@Neobright1]

Great comparison. Appreciate the video and the time taken for this. Looking forward to your reviews of the Vivo X90 with the IMX 989 😀

[@CaidicusProductions]

Huawei does it again, with that RYYB sensor. Each and every shot it does is warmer, but it has that "Come visit me" vibe to every place it captures. I love Huawei's color processing. Man oh man...

[@ashouhdy]

you are the only reviewer who ever uploads a vid. i watch on the big screen 4k enjoying it like a movie 🍿 ,, for the comparison i ll take the vivo as over all camera to go Night / neon / portraits and day pics.

[@robsonsobral2506]

Ben, I just have to say thank you so much for your effort to make this camera comparison and bring to us the rich information. Awesome video.. Awesome quality... Man you are simply the best! Greetings from Brazil!

[@zakimiri7592]

Good job, nice video I loved your work , and the VIVO at night it's just something else.

[@luisch1708]

u kno what's more organic than the 12S Ultra's shots? ur reviews, Ben, they're the best. Keep up the good work!

[@bensgadgetreviews]

Thank you

[@_observado]

Pixel is well balanced, I love Vivo night shots and Xiaomi has the best natural detail, if only we could combine the three

[@Vrbgkr]

A great selection of phones to compare. Thanks to you rewiew of the Vivo X80 pro phone a few months ago I decided to buy it. Great phone. Thank you.

[@matthewtaylor9497]

Been watching you for years bro your actually only handful of honest KZbin reviewers! Keep it up 👍

[@TheDonchris62]

The sound coming from mate 50 is awesome

[@joshuabergeman354]

Been waiting for this, thanks Ben you're my favorite for phone camera comparisons!

[@MrKemby13]

It would be nice if you can include the S22U next time, especially now when OneUI 5 is out... Great work, as always 👍

[@myvance5035]

9:30 never seen your dad before. Hope he's all well and healthy. Great review Ben. Keep it coming. ✨

[@i.c.d.-videos1901]

Awesome comparison video 👍🏻. I really enjoyed seeing the differences on how these 4 phones subtlety tweak photos & videos from each other.

[@ohyeah7207]

Definition of quality content! Good job

[@GameRTmaster]

The huawei mic is brutal dude!! I confirm this huawei mic sound almost like my hyperx Quadcast s

[@michaelcorcoran8768]

The Orange colorway is really popular in overseas phones. The faux leather orange on the vivo x80 pro Plus looked great.

[@nikytamayo]

For serious photographers, that big Xiaomi sensor and minimal processing are great. Still in the running to be my next work camera when I recontract next year. Disappointed that they still haven't got night video right at Huawei. Much better than the Mate 40 Pro, but still not as good as it should be given how good the photos are. Awesome sound quality, though. Does it still have the high res AI mode? That should give you amazing pixel peeping detail in daylight shots. Still unsure if it's worth upgrading from the 40 Pro. The Vivo X80 Pro really punching up. Amazing performance, and probably one of the best Instagram shooters out there now. But that Pixel 7 Pro. Wow. That's one fantastic all arounder. For fire and forget shooting, looks like this is the new king. Dude, you rock. This is the comparo we've all been waiting for. Great Job!

[@a.s.7996]

Nah, vivo is still the king. You're a fanboy if u say otherwise

[@nikytamayo]

@@a.s.7996 That would depend on your needs, wouldn't it? I've tested the X80 Pro at the store, and while the HDR and color are impressive, in terms of overall detail at the pixel peeping level, my Mate 40 Pro still has the edge in terms of the main sensor and the Telephoto. And since I use it for paid work, detail levels that allow me to crop in closer are more important than HDR, which I will usually either turn off or tone down when post processing anyway. (and of course, software bokeh is a no no for any serious work) And there is still no counterpart for Huawei's high res AI mode, which I use a lot for product shots. Horses for courses, the X80 Pro is fantastic for point and shoot, and I think it's fantastic, overall, but some of us need to do other stuff,

[@AndrewWells]

AWESOME comparison! These devices are marketed and hyped so differently, but we use them as you do, which flattens out that marketing experience... seeing the still images and video captures is SO helpful to people in making buying decisions... thanks for the effort and GREAT channel!!

[@Samuel-lm1wb]

thank you. I got the vivo x70 pro after watching your x80 pro vs x70 pro camera comparison, I ended up choosing last year model over this year bc of the video stabilization. Thanks

[@BhupenderSingh-mm2rk]

one of the best comparison video on youtube, eagerly waiting for Vivo X90 Pro Plus review from you Ben... Thanks. !!!

[@minhthuc1232003]

Nice video Ben,I like the Vivo night pics a lot

[@propov8]

The first truly camera comparison between the best in business. Super clever scenes choice that push the cameras so hard to the limit and beyond. And the more importan is who is in the near to the real looking scenes. Thank you man and keep going !

[@30YearOldBunta]

Low-key best review channel on the site

[@ranjitbouri1124]

U r putting lots of work n effort...u deserve more brother

[@twinfolktech]

Ben, you’re the hardest working guy in tech, I swear. Another absolute banger, brother. Keep up the good work 💪🏾

[@PsychMan]

Awesome comparison as always Ben. It's pretty amazing how an incremental update made this one of the best camera phones on the market. I still like the X80 pro but I'm very curious as to what they will do with x90 series.

[@travisstrickland7270]

The Pixel 7 and the Vivo are the most impressive I agree. But all the phones take great pics. Nice video

[@tunnel365]

Thanks for your great work from Hong Kong! You're the first reviewer I go to whenever I'm shopping for a new phone (I change phones approx 3 to 4 times a year). I'm looking forward to your review of the Vivo x90 pro and x90 pro plus when they are released!

[@eugeneliao]

Ben’s reviews are the best…!

[@bensgadgetreviews]

Thanks for the support Eugene!

[@mole1596]

Have you noticed any video improvements with the Xiaomi after updates? The low-light video looked spectacular and I think it'd be interesting to see it against the iPhone 14 Pro again.

[@12587drago]

From what i saw in the other comparisons, 12s ultra crushed 14 pro max in the video.. Especially in low light and night. Pretty insane result after years of iphone leading the video quality. Even during the day, xiaomi have just better details and hdr

[@mole1596]

@@12587drago it's important to note that iPhones still have the best exposure/HDR in video, which is where Xiaomi falls behind. But I agree that Xiaomi's videos look cleaner, sharper and nearly as stable as the iPhone's, which is a great achievement.

[@WillybonksRandy]

great comparison video, great inspiration ben

[@tyoong719]

[@ABCkirja]

incredible work, very surprised Vivo did this good and even better at times than the rest.

[@NAEEM07860]

Always waiting for your video 👍

[@bongapd]

Great review once again. I love the way I never sense any bias from your reviews. I am not a brand loyalist. Prefer to judge capabilities not brand brainwashing hahaha. Thanks bro. Love from Ireland...

[@bensgadgetreviews]

Thank you

[@rdavid3876]

Man your videos are always best.

[@ChannelRejss]

These are the best phone photo comparisons I've seen on YT yet. Not only what you cover and how but even your own opinions on it are very spot on imo. Color accuracy and exposure is important but you can't just go ham on HDR look because it makes things look fake. Same goes for sharpness and clarity. Some manufacturers like Vivo in this instance seem to boost HDR and also denoise+oversharpen things too much. The result ends up being a blotchy, digital paintery mess. The ignorance from many regarding this over processing is especially apparent when you see that DXOMark considers the Honor Magic4 Ultimate at least in rank 2 when it comes to photo quality. Just look at the images they show in their review... it's grossly overprocessed. Makes me wonder if and how much money was paid for this ranking. I'm using the Huwawei P30 rn and can't stand the RGY sensor anymore because in some scenarios it's really doing weird things. Having to edit the green tint it sometimes adds in corners of the shot is almost impossible. I won't be going with another Huawei phone going forward because of that sensor tech alone. So far the Xiaomi is the winner for me. Yes it doesn't always correct for exposure with HDR but thanks to that it ends up being more organic/natureal looking... it produces images that look the least "smartphony" imo. And with the pro/manual settings I'm sure I'll manage to shoot great photos with it if a situation is more challenging. If Google's Pixel had a pro shooting mode I'd grab that but I'm not willing to rely 100% on what Google deems a good photo for me. Speaking of which, I would love it if you would consider making a videos focusing purely on the camera app controls of these phones. Hardly any KZbinr/reviewer does that and it's such an important part of the shooting experience, as well as the results you might be getting. I understand that not everyone is a skilled photographer but those who do have some experience with camera settings or just want more control in general might really profit from it.

[@nitric75]

getting the mate 50 pro; preorder in Malaysia just started few days ago. Just went to compare the demo unit of the mate 50 pro (white version) and vivo x80 pro. The mate 50 pro just felt so much nicer in the hand.

[@christophersemy]

I've used Samsungs, iPhones, Pixels, Huaweis and it surprises me how tech reviewers fail to mention the zoom capability of the front cameras (both photo and video up to 4x) on the pixel phones. That gives it an edge over other phones, at least in terms of camera versatility. Granted it may not be the most useful feature in a front camera for most people but it is always better to have it than to not have it. And no other phone has it.

[@adilkarim6912]

Thanks alot for your responding and makes this lovely comparition

[@yashleysookun]

Nice Video Ben! I own a Vivo X80 Pro and I am very happy with it. Not trading it for any other phone just now! 😄

Great job Ben 👍🏾and I have to give it to you man. You make the best camera reviews full stop. Nice to see your Pop's give you a hand with this. By the way be careful out there in Los Angeles with those expensive gadgets too. Thanks 🙏🏾

[@salmonars]

Great review Ben. Big up Pops holding it down as a model and a camera man!

Hey Ben, awesome detailed comparison. I like the fact that you are giving every phone a chance and not afraid to speak about weak points when there are.

Your style of comparison is amazing 👌, keep. It up man 👍👍👍

[@shethsa]

I like your format of showing the sights around while comparing the phones - kind of like The Unlocker or Mr Mobile. Only thing - they typically don't do comparisons. Good luck with your day job as well! Pixel's the one for me.

[@tloukotka]

Hi Ben, thanks for great video. Really hard to find better phone camera reviews right now. Keep up with good work and appreciate all time you are spending with it...

I love that you mentioned which one come closest to the real scene! Thank you Ben this is really helpful!

[@bokisa1125]

This thing here is an awesome job (despite the 24fps video cap, which I still hate :P), nevertheless the thing you did here is worth of the highest ''RESPECT''. And the conclusion is right on point. Personally I'd take vivo x80pro, mostly because of the night mode and general HDR (which I kinda like), I just wish they improve that ultra wide camera a bit. Very much appreciated, sending love from Serbia, and keep up the good work

Amazing camera comprision as always Ben's bro

[@CaidicusProductions]

Man, your comparisons are so daring. I say daring because you're the only KZbinr (and tech journalist, for that matter) willing to compare devices that might actually topple the big boys on the block.

[@CaidicusProductions]

Also, the Huawei is @#$%ing stunning! In my opinion, Chinese phones have just fantastic microphones on them. Western brands, as well as Samsung, often sound like they're heavily filtered.

[@hamzaahmed6831]

Thank you so much for the review, Ben.

[@MrNabeelesn]

Your work is authentic. Weldone bro.

[@John-zb4by]

BEN! I haven't been watching much KZbin lately - How did you go from Hong Kong to LA? And you're showing me the TACO TRUCKS I miss so much in Thailand. Salivating literally. You know the food here is amazing but Mexican Street food! Whoa. Try Taco Azteca in Glendale. Was one of my favorites many years ago before leaving LA. And Thanks as always for the great reviews. Sorry i was looking at the city more than the phones. Peace to you.

[@nomore-constipation]

I definitely love your dedication to being simple on the review for this. The multiple selfie stick just isn't a fair assessment of each phone so I definitely appreciate you taking time to hook and unhook Rach phone. Big silent workload that should get a shoutout One request, can you please set up the final video next to each other like you did for the single photo shots? It's harder to compare if they are not side by side imo Otherwise I really do like the way this was done. 9 hours of boots on the ground work is impressive, especially considering this is not your main job. Wish you were local so I could puts around trying to compare these too and offer the photos for your channel. Not everyone has the ability to buy this many flagship type of phones in the same year mind you. Great job! I'm never one to just hand out a like on a video but you sir definitely deserve it considering how crappy the reviews are for other channels (who are actually more popular)

[@VoiceIgniteTV]

Awesome comariso. As a photographer w a Google pixel 6 pro, my friends say my pics smoke their pictures as regardless of of good the phone/camera is nothing will nail the photo out of the box. You do have to adjust exposure at times. I do find I reach for my gp6pro far more than my DSLR. IMO the Vivo was spot on, with good dynamic range. Xiaomi is testing a third party lens you can adapt to the 12 S that would really take advantage of the 1" sensor.
