Samsung Galaxy S23 VS Pixel 7 Pro Camera Comparison!

[@RedskullPro]

Do you think the Pixel 7 Pro still makes sense in 2023?

[@CruzJM]

Of course! Pixel just going to get better with updates! Nice job in your videos sir?

[@NeverSettleForMediocrity]

Phones without 3x zoom lens make no sense for the last decade

[@sophia_2092]

[@BURZT_YT]

@Juan Cruz true but s23 just launched & 7 pro was out 5 months ago or so? s23 will have 4-5 years of updates so I think it will still not be able to beat the s23

[@absolutelypitiful3837]

The 7 Pro will still be one of the top camera phones on the market for sure. Many people still think that Google's computational photography is definitely superior to Samsung's and Apple's.

Maybe it's just my preference, but I think the Pixel blows the s23 out the water. But the 23 ultra would be the better comparison to make. Even though yes, the s23 and 7 pro are the most similarly priced

The Pixel pictures look almost in every mode cleaner and natural. Strange enough the portrait mode of the S23 I would prefer. This mode does what it is supposed to do: "make it Instagram ready" with a beautiful bokeh affect.

Great comparison, as always! I have the S23, but I prefer the video from the Pixel in this comparison. Even though the stabilization is slightly worse on the Pixel, on the S23 the mountains look kinda over-sharpened. The portrait mode on Google's phone is laughable though. For the rest they're pretty much the same.

[@mole1596]

Surprised to see that the Pixel holds its own here. The great thing is that the standard Pixel 7 is just as good (only has 2x optical zoom instead of 5x), and this one is like 500 EUR/USD right now.

[@pudinichigo91]

That 2x zoom they only cropped from 50mp main camera, that not a real 2x optical zoom, Pixel 7 only have 2 lens which is wide camera & ultra wide camera, no telephoto camera

[@marksouthwell4490]

It's not true optical zoom, just digital or cropped or whatever you like to call it. Pixel 7 doesn't have a dedicated zoom lens

[@mole1596]

It's a 2x crop with OPTICAL quality. That's not the same as 2x digital zoom. On top of all, a 2x crop from the main camera is always going to be better than a 2x lens in low-light. :) Essentially, the Pixel 7 basically has three optical-quality focal lengths, which is pretty much like having three different cameras. :)

[@Naraayanay]

@@pudinichigo91 What could be best smartphone under 900 USD?

[@detachedloop1004]

Well technically there is no telephoto lens on pixel 7 so there is no optical zoom. Pro has a dedicated 48 mp telephoto lens. Despite that the digital zoom of pixels is way better than any other brand but pixel pro is on another level. The clarity of zoomed pictures on 7 pro is unmatched even by Galaxy s23 and iPhone 14 pro. It takes really crisp zoomed in images.

@Fidato I'm not saying it's sharper. Obviously the s23 looks sharper for video. What I'm saying, it was looking bad before but now looks a whole lot better and can now compare to s23.

[@25eazi]

the shadows were mushy in the day time on the s23. They both did great. different color science which is normally the case from camera to camera. Pixel seem to handle detail better and not as over sharpen as the s23. the yellow hue is heavy.

[@gamecopproductions9303]

Pixel for me is the smart buy. The reason is that it's placed in between previous and next generation of Samsung's with an attractive price, so it can fight well against s22 and s23 (bit ahead, bit behind) but the prices are what they should be while Samsung just overprice their phones. I had s21 ultra and now I'm using pixel 7 pro. The main complain about pixel is the overdark photos while in videos is the opposite; something that shows inconsistency between modes and I need to boost shadows in almost every photo I take. The positive point is that the quality with moving objects is excellent, so yeah, as Ive said, smart choice!

The video kind of went back and forth in real time, but overall, I think I preferred the P7 Pro's video output here. Something else I noticed is that Samsung will boost those reds quite a bit. Sometimes it is more pleasing. Sometimes it's eye searingly blown out.

[@RedskullPro]

Thanks for checking out the video!

[@Welshmanshots]

for years with my s8+ I've always had to desaturate the reds in my photos and videos because Samsung just makes reds too red, I like google's more natural approach.

[@ASignOfTheThymes]

I suspect the Samsung is a little better, which is to say the Pixel was a little bit too contrasty and slightly oversharpened, which at first I preferred. The Samsung looked smooth and more movie-esque, to me. The colour science of the Samsung looked a bit off but then in a couple of scenes the Pixel seemed to have a blue tint. I'm guessing that a few minutes spent in post, you could make the footage of both look close to identical. I wonder if any updates have improved either, since this video is a year old. Really appreciate the time and effort, and thank you for sharing the beautiful location.

[@absolutelypitiful3837]

Overall it seems that when it comes to daytime, the S23 as an entry level flagship is surprisingly close to the Pixel 7 Pro, although the latter's pictures are still slightly superior. When it comes to night photography however, there's no contest. The 7 Pro eats the S23 alive. We'll have to see with the S23 Ultra to see how closely matched they are.

[@fidato_]

You must be blind. S23 took better day time pictures and even the night time pictures were sharper. If you don't like the yellow just download the lightroom. And pixel sucks at videos Samsung is more versatile. And nobody buy a phone just for a camera. Pixel has weaker chip set and poor performance.

[@auguseu5269]

Really? Well, some photos of S23 are better. But for the video, absolutely S23 is the king. You can see how smooth and stabilize the video on S23 compare to Pixel 7 Pro. And this just S23, what about the S23 Ultra? Surely gonna eats out the Pixel 7 Pro.

@@fidato_ No. It's neck-to-neck. But some of the shots on the Pixel 7 Pro looked better, with more details and more true-to-life color. While the S23 color pallet is way too saturated.

[@Dec4AllTimeAlways]

Since I'm under ACP, I need to go to AT&T because only Metro covers it if I want to stay under the T-Mobile umbrella. But I hear Metro can have your sim locked to your IMEI and I hate that. That's why I will never buy another iPhone after the 13s thanks to this esim only nonsense here in the States because I can travel a lot, my native country is mostly prepaid, and I do change from different phones a lot. I carry 2 through 5 phones daily. My guess is Samsung won't copy Apple with esim only until next year at earliest. This is why the S23 series intrigues me. I'm not dying to get any of them. It's another damn phone. A giant, boring slab one at that. The excitement getting a new "toy" wore off many years ago. Honeymoon phase. Love it. Get bored with it. Buy another. Wash. Rinse. Repeat. The main reason why the S23 Ultra is intriguing: Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. From battery tests coming from the Red Magic 8 Pro, it seems Qualcomm might have their best chip since the 835/845 days. The 888 and 8 Gen 1 were very problematic. You also need to understand SoCs won't always be efficient every year like it wasn't in 2015, 2021, and early-2022. Qualcomm doesn't always get it right every year once they speed things up. Who knows if Snap 8 Gen 3 sucks? It happens regardless if they use TSMC foundries. The most efficient Snapdragon flagship SoCs I've seen were 800, 801, and 835. Snap 8+ Gen 1 and Gen 2 are returning to those years in 2013, 2014, and 2017. Android will only get worse with 14 as Google will make it harder to sideload apps. S23U comes with 13 out of the box. Android 13 already made it impossible to downgrade to the previous firmware. Google is becoming more like Apple every day which isn't exactly a good thing. The openness of Android is starting to fade and becoming more restrictive like iOS. S23 Ultra should still be the battery king for Samsung since I expect the Fold 5 and Flip 5 will come with smaller batteries like they did previous years. Fold 5 still has to power a bigger internal display and Flip 5 has close to the same screen size as the Ultras but Flip 4 only came with 3700 mAh and not 5000 that the S22U and S23U have. So if you want the S-Pen slot (we still don't know if Fold 5 gets it), periscope lens, and the most efficient Samsung flagship, it's really the S23 Ultra. The S23+ might be more efficient but S23U just seems more premium and feature-packed. Not many techtubers are mentioning this and instead are saying Samsung is offering terrible trade-in deals this year which is true. But a carrier like AT&T is offering $1000 bill credits if you trade-in any Samsung Galaxy S phone in any condition. It includes other brands like any old Pixel if you want $1000 off. Yes, you're stuck with them for 3 years unless you do $6 Next Up every month to be eligible for a new phone after every 18 months. But you're getting $1000 off by trading in your broken Galaxy S3, Pixel 2, or whatever. Check the eligibility of old phones you can trade in on their site. $200 S23 Ultra (I want 12 GB RAM) $75 minimum contract per month for 3 yrs I'll get a $30 discount under ACP and $15 with autopay. My monthly bill should be around $35-$40 per month. The 512 GB being offered has 12 GB RAM by default. I'm really considering it. Yeah, it's a boring and heavy slab. I still think S21U looked the best from the back and prefer the rounder edges. But I'm sick and tired charging my Flip 3, Razr 5G, iPhone X, and Pixel 3 every single day. Only my SE 3 gives me good battery life and standby. The Flip 5 will be great with a bigger cover display and the same custom Snap 8 Gen 2 but its size and form factor will always limit its battery capacity to less than 5000 mAh the S23U has. From other battery tests, I think iPhone 14 Pro Max still beats S23 Ultra by a considerable margin while having a smaller battery nearly 700 mAh less. A16 is still the more efficient chip and iOS is more efficient than Android especially with RAM. I'm very frugal how I use my phones. I'll probably turn off 120 Hz and 5G to extend it to 20+ hour SOT if I can get 13+ hours easily on my iPhone SE 3 from Wi-Fi browsing. S23 Ultra is the one, folks. Don't bother with Pixel 7 Pro or 8 Pro. Samsung's Exynos chip is just not as efficient as TSMC Snapdragons. And less compatibility with emulators. Resale value on all Pixels is piss poor. I wonder if my guy, Michael Fisher, will ever get bored with foldables and go back using a boring slab? I use both since purchasing a few used iPhones and it's really not difficult going back to a slab. Maybe this is the year to go back to it if you want the longest battery life from a Samsung phone with DEX support and don't want to deal with a crease while using an S-Pen?

My main issue with the pixel 6 pro is the blue cold tone on most of the shots, it looks so unnatural to me, and its performance on hardcore games, seeing s23 doing that great is going to make me switch soon.

[@pspspspspspspspspspspspspspsps]

pixel 7 pro's video kinda looks similar to iPhone videos on this comparison. I can't decide if I should go for s23 or not since the night mode and selfies are kinda hit or miss

[@DeadofWinter321]

Makes me glad I went with the Pixel 7 Pro. The camera on this thing blows away the S23.

[@Ati0000]

Hello, Sometime you could say to use which picture are more close to the reality where you it was recorded. You were there, not us. Foe example I am looking for a telephone which's photo is the closest to the real world and making a lot of filter. Anyway amazing job, thank you very much

[@RedskullPro]

Noted! Thanks for checking out the video!

[@martinnhantran]

I prefer the colour accuracy on the pixel 7 pro but the most of the photos does look sharper on the galaxy s23

[@mikldude9376]

Most sharper on the galaxy , that might be overstating it mate , and some pics both had noise at times but more appeared to be noisey on the galaxy imo.

[@kamalbismi7558]

The colour more accurate on pixel? Nah the colour more bluish tint 1:38

[@43looks29]

I am grateful that you do the 7 pro vs s23 vanilla . Nobody would compare a vanilla size to a pro model. I have the vanilla s23 but alas the battery too little for me cos i always do live on tiktok and have to constantly use power bank

[@deadlyalliance8281]

S23 stabilization glides like butter...

The pixel photos are a tad under exposed. TBH they both take great photos. Perhaps compare the 7pro to Samsung's flagship ultra model , as they're both the best each company has to offer and in the same class bracket . S23 is in same class as the standard pixel 7

[@RedskullPro]

Only bought the regular S23 🤷‍♂️

[@ekramyt2866]

both phone had pros and cons and sometimes the pixel over saturated even the samsung also the same . its all based on situation during the photo was taken .

[@Lacter12]

wish this was a blind test

[@IronLad]

the face beauty feature was on on s23 portrait even that smoothness feature was off so photos looked edited and not natural

[@RedskullPro]

I have everything turned off 🤷‍♂️

[@Rafid01]

Wait a minute, I get all the other ones but in potrait pixel won? Brother, pixel digitaly zooms into the subject and takes the picture for potrait shots. Samsung uses the telephoto to do that. Yes, Samsung does smoothen up the skin, but its manageable. Pixel just overs sharpens it. It is the same story in every reviewer's pov. And turn of the blur amount in the samsung to 2 or 3. Not 6. You'll get far better results.

[@RedskullPro]

I just can’t take that skin smoothing effect :) but you have the pictures side by side to make up your own opinion

[@Rafid01]

@@RedskullPro I know, there is smoothing effect. It’s is S22 too, which I use, for about 10 months, as a daily driver! So I do know the Samsung way. And I'm totally agreeing with you, that there is skin smoothening. Its in my phone, and looks like it's the same in S23 too. But what I suggested that at least it looks more natural as opposed to the pixel, because pixel just digitally zooms in and take the photo. And do post processing and sharpening with the subject. That's why it's looks a little unnatural that S23. And the blur on S23 is very much high. It's weird to look at. That's why I suggested to keep the blur at 2 or 3, and not 6. Better photo may come out. Also, one thing I forgot to say, the dynamic range. It's more consistent in pixel I think, in potraits. Even in my S22, in potraits, the Dynamic range is good, but sometimes it isn’t consistent. Here I think the same story is reflected. You are a good reviewer brother, and the points you've said was valid. But I was just surprised that you chose pixel. For me that one was more un natural. Even to Samsung too is not that much better

[@cvrtechcorn]

U should mention which is showing Natural exact colour eye vs camera 📸

[@ChrisScott0]

The best video or photo is the one genuine and either exactly or nearest to the original image, as it is in real with the naked eye. So how it is as you see it! Then clear and sharp and natural. So comparing both together who knows? Only you know who saw in real! However looking the videos side by side I’d say the Pixel was easily better probably due to less filters, however the Samsung appeared clearer at night. If I had to choose I’d prefer the Pixel, but you are comparing the top model Pro 7 with a lesser S23 model (but similar price). I like Google phones and had pure Google Android for decades, but I don’t like the Pixel phone design and lesser build quality, so just ordered the S23 Ultra for a change. I hope I won’t regret it.

[@Emmanuel_Tuts-Schiemsky]

They are both very good,but i prefer the pixel......

[@fabionicolosi9963]

in My opinion the better choice is getting the Samsung s23 and set the google camera in it , so that with the google camera you take better photo and with the samsung camera the best video quality

[@kojicesmikurac]

Both phones have advantages over the other regarding the camera. But overal S23 Ultra is definetly better. The colours and overal highlights are much better. Pixel 7 looks a bit washed out. Also pictures on S23 have more detail. But Pixel 7 won with front facing camera, and 10x zoom look much more detailed on Pixel 7.

[@Welshmanshots]

Im pretty sure he is using the base s23, not the ultra.

[@Prabalz]

I am a s23 user nowadays. One thing I must say that apart from the camera one ui is the best ui experience from Samsung.

[@gamecopproductions9303]

Ah! Forgotten to say GREAT JOB! Love when you take pictures of your wife cause she has blue eyes as my daughter and can judge it better!

[@desmotssurlesmauxdmslm2117]

Don't forget the S23 series didn't get their first uptade and they already did a great job... Ans un this case, it's just a regular S23 who keep up with the pro model of Google and un some cases with the IPhone 14pro... So just be confident and wait to see...

[@Mistah_Random]

i really want to visit this town... that's the main thing i got from this video other than both phones do well with video.

[@pelulumanindia]

Finally the waiting is over 🤗🤗

Took me a while to finish! 3 comparisons in 2 days is a lot! I need a lot of sleep now!

From my photography perspective Pixel Pro is a Keeper!

haha! Thanks Dave! On the 14th im in London for a couple of days!

[@georget10i]

Really wanted to get an S23 but Pixel 7 seems like a better camera in all areas except some specific scenes like at 6:37 where the S23 gives better rendition of a hot weather. As a side note, for the longest time I used to think people were trolling whenever they'd refer to the end of video time in their comments, yet I now almost typed 10:34 as a time reference instead of 6:37. Now I know how they make that mistake

[@fidato_]

Thanks for you telling us that you're not only dumb but also blind

[@Rac0p]

Buena comparativa, ese tinte amarillo en las fotos de noche, si que es verdad que quedaría mejor algo intermedio entre los dos, para el s23, por lo demás todo me ha parecido muy parecido o que lo hacía mejor el s23

[@firdanjulian8277]

Wow s23 video stabilization is amazing

Hats off to Samsung this year the quality is definitely upgraded but they're going to for sure have to rain in the software because there's a lot of issues! For me the shadows are crushed the contrast is way too high, but the clarity is amazing! In my opinion the pixel is the winner! Great video.

[@RedskullPro]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with everyone!

[@baronofgreymatter14]

Which camera was true to life?

[@RedskullPro]

Hmmm, at night the Pixel, day I think the S23 more

[@maheshambaliya4682]

I pre-booked the s23ultra, but i hate the fact that the front camera has very very bad dynamic range. Basically, it looks cropped, and we can't even fit 1 person properly, WTF????????
