Hey Chaps! Which Phone do you think won?? (Prices: iPhone is $799, Pixel 5 & S20 FE are $699)

[@Frostbitten.]

Definitely the S20. Colourful and crisp. The iPhone seems a little artificially saturated, but is a close second. The Pixel 5 looks washed out.

[@markyboyclark]

Pixel5. But why is it only a 6" screen 😭😭😭

[@ethancheng4776]

S20 for me. The pixel 5 is too bright. And the iPhone has a horrible yellow tint.

[@franktntx]

s20 and Pixel are more realistic colors, and s20 has more sharpness and depth in dark colors for me, the s20 wins

[@johncruz5001]

im speaking from personal experience, when it comes to indoors, samsung just makes the photo too bright, especially the selfies which I hate. The selfies makes my skin too smooth, too bright and washed out, and even blurry when trying to take a group selfie.

[@JR28.]

@@johncruz5001 i think it's due to the slower shutter/focus speed in low light and you may be moving slightly or moving away too early. When I take selfies indoors, I always ensure to be really still and not move for a good 1 or 2 seconds after pressing the shutter button. They always turn out great, never blurry or washed out like you said. If the problem still continues you need to enable the motion photo setting(at the top of the screen in the camera viewfinder) . It will capture a short video before taking the photo, that way you can pause when everyone's faces were focused and then pick out the best frame. It's so useful.

[@mizcolombiana890]

@@SergeyWainFellowes hii, so don't get me wrong the iPhone 12 pro video is absolutely amazing but my issue is the portrait mode it's just okay. It either gives it a cutout effect or just completely off with the blur. It sometimes automatically switches to night mode when it thinks there's not enough light and makes pictures grainy looking. Also, I love taking pictures of my son and about 90% of the photos come out blurry in the face. I know my toddler can't stay still for a long period of time but I never had this issue with my pixel phone. For me, I ended up purchasing the 512 gb for $1,299 and honestly just not worth the price if the main reason I purchased the phone was to take pictures of my son. I still have yet to see the pixel 5 in person and see how the size is compared to the iPhone pro 12. I believe it's the same size as the iPhone 11 pro which I don't mine.

If you look at the blues of the sky and eyes, Samsung is noticeably more saturated, plus they don't just push the saturation, they push the contrast as well which in my opinion, gives overall image a more artificial look. Plenty of people like it, as contrast is something that makes the image pop more but I personally can almost always differentiate between Samsung and iPhone, as Samsung pushes greens and blues and contrast a little over the level I'd be comfortable with. Also, if you look at the scene with the red tree on 2:02 - the sky is darker shade of blue resulting in a halo-like effect on the buildings - tons of Samsung-taken photos have this and it ruins the photos for me. Owning Pixel 2 for years now, I am not sure I can switch to a different camera, it balances every shot perfectly to my tastes :/

Amazing comparison, thank you. My own take: Opening shot: The iPhone looks blurry in the most important part, his face, compared to the other two side by side. 47 seconds into it The Pixil had problems adjusting as quickly from darker to lighter more than the iPhone and Galaxy which had no wash-out/glare at all. 1 minute 3s in you can see more details on the Galaxy than the other two, look at the leaves on the tree at the ground. but 4 seconds later on the ultrawide the Pixil seems to edge out the other two slightly on detail on the furthest object, the tower in the upper right, 1m13s:The iPhone is just a little blurry in the face again, and the Pixil has that contrast issue it did earlier which darkens her face and creates a glow on the edge of her hair, the Galaxy looks normal/detailed. 3 seconds later as he wildly swings the camera around the Pixil seems to pick up the fine details in the branches -slightly- better than the other two, with the Galaxy looking fairly detailed, and the iPhone again looking slightly blurry compared to the other two. 1m30s:Again the Galaxy picks up the details better than the other two, noticeably the leaves in the tree, the edges of the stonework on the tower, and most importantly the rainbow. Again the iPhone seems to blur the colors of the leaves in the tree a bit (is this slight blur intentional?) The Zoom on the Galaxy is impressing and clearly blows the other two out of the water. 2m2s:The details on that impressive red tree are again picked up noticeably better on the Galaxy than the other two. The Galaxy also picks up the color on the window and roof to the left of the tree better than the other two, bringing out the blueish tinge rather than showing it as a pure grey. Again unsurprisingly the Galaxy destroys on the zoom yet again. 2m30s:A house and another rainbow despite what the guy says to me The Pixil looks a little washed out, the iPhone is a little better, and again the Galaxy destroys the other two in both color and detail. He thinks the Galaxy doesn't look realistic, I think it looks amazing in this shot, it looks right out of a fairy tale movie everything is so vibrant. 2m49s:The Flower Again he seems to not like this shot on the Galaxy, but to me both the moisture on the petals and the background, though blurry since it's not in focus on any of the three cameras, is much more detailed and have greater contrasts in colors on the Galaxy than the other two. 3m49s:The Swan He touches on something important the iPhone has 'smartHDR3" which 'evens things out' well that's apparently why so many of the important parts of the iPhone's shots look blurry to me. 4m:2s:The Wife I agree with him the Pixil looks the best, the iPhone is again blurry, and although the Galaxy is hands down miles ahead of the other two in the background, look at the details and colors on that tree branch and the building in the back, when looking at her face the Galaxy shows the eyebrows how they truly are, a bit darker, and the pixil lightens them up making the face more uniform and pleasant, almost like it has a built-in filter. 4m19s:The coffee test. It was incredibly easy to figure out which one was which, the Galaxy picks up the background details much better than the other two, the iPhone blurs everything a bit intentionally, and the Pixil is a middle ground. I again like the Galaxy better for this one. 4m31s:Between buildings test. Again this was completely obvious, the furthest left is incredibly detailed with wonderful colors on the skylight windows of the building, has a bright blue sky and of course is the Galaxy, The middle one is blurry and washes the colors all together a bit muting contrasts, but somehow picks up a darker blue sky like in earlier iPhone pictures, so that's the iPhone, and the middle ground again is the Pixil, just like in earlier pictures it picks up things a bit better than the iPhone with some more detail/color contrast, but not as good as the Galaxy, and somehow is the worst at sky/clouds of the tree. 4m55s:Cat. Pixil is a clear loser here on how close up it has to be, but it fairs better on the colors than the iPhone, and the Galaxy manages to get the colors and the details edging out the other two. The iPhone's only plus here is it seems to lighten the cats right eye, making the face a little more appealing than the other two. 5m11s:Himself. The Pixil just looks the best here, the iPhone has it's signature blur-everything, the Galaxy while good as more contrast in the shadows of the eyes, which the Pixil has lightened without blurring. A few seconds later on the second shot of himself I again love what he hates, the Galaxy's vivid colors take the best picture, and somehow the Pixil here manages to make the eyes look darker, trying and failing for that middle ground. The iPhone doesn't look bad for this second shot, save for the background which is much blurrier than the other two. 5m33s:Night Mode various pictures: The Pixil struggles more than the other two with the lower lighting just as it did with daytime shadow/sunlight shots, light sources drown out darker , The iPhone Nukes the problem head-on by brightening everything to much which changes the colors and makes them washed out, while still also having problems with glare right around the light source. The Galaxy is the clear winner for me, it maintains colors, picks up details while avoiding the iPhone's issue of lightning things to much, the Galaxy's shots still look like 'this is a low light situation, but here's all the info you wanted'. 6m32s: Stars, wow that Astrophotography mode on the Pixil is amazing, but I'll admit that is a very situational feature that might only come up once or twice a year at most. Again we see that the iPhone's night mode nukes the crap out of the scene washing everything out into brightness. The Galaxy doesn't fair well with this one, it looks more realistic than the iPhone but it picks the least stars out from all three. 6m43: Selfie front camera. Starting with low light, the iPhone actually looks the best for this one. This time the Pixil looks washed out, and the Galaxy looks too contrasted. The iPhone's blur feature actually works well in this low-light-but-no-night-mode-on fringe situation. Once he switches into Night mode for this low light shot the Galaxy pulls ahead for me, the colors in the background flatter and pull attention right to his face, the iPhone gets washed out a little now, and the Pixil is even worse brightening things too much. Switching to the daytime selfie in portrait mode I agree with him completely, this is the first time that the Galaxy looks the most washed out of the three. The Pixil looks to have the biggest contrasts and the iPhones blur-feature is working well to smooth out his face. 7m15s:A Final video. This is more of the same from earlier, the iPhone obviously has an automatic built-in filter that blends things, and in this is sort of goes a bit to far, making his eyebrows disappear into his skin a bit. The Pixil looks better than the iPhone, but is zoomed in a bit to much, and finally the Galaxy looks great there's so much detail on his face, in his hair, the fuzzy lining of his jacket and the fence/leaves behind him, but maybe some people don't want to see all those little details like their laugh lines?

[@Pezminator]

I think all these phones create amazing picture results, but for me, the Samsung s20 fe had an huge advantage with that telephoto lense. In my opinion, telephoto capability, (on top of a good sensor, optics and processing) is that last piece needed for a phone to finally become a proper and versatile camera. So I bought the S20 Fe for my girlfriend and the zoom details are really as good as in your video and unlike anything I have ever seen on a phone before. So I think the years and years of hauling Canons and Lumix cameras for the zoom shots on our hikes, that time has finally come to an end 😅

Astrophotography takes upwards of 100 secs on the pixel with a tripod then why not use the pro mode on the S20 FE?

[@johnsecret1318]

Lol i tried astrophotography and i lost interest on it coz it takes 2 minutes to shoot 🤣🤣🤣

[@aospkitkat4446]

Just got the IP 12 reg yesterday and the Pixel 5 today. Was thinking about moving to the 12 from the Pixel line but the pics just are a wee bit better on Google's than Apple's and your vid nails that as well. Apple seems will always reign supreme when it comes to videos.

[@Jay2k2323]

Yeah sureee you did

[@mkguitarproject]

The FE records 4k at 60 fps with the front camera as well.

[@bAssisTowo]

To me the S20 Fe's mic sounded more closer to the mic you use to record

[@naimas8120]

I used s4 before, and its microphone back in 2014 sounds so good. Samsung has this reputation ever since.

Thanks for the homework you've done for us! This is so important for a typical small consumer like me

[@UDCOOLBUDDY07]

S20 FE with SD865 will be a better choice than all in every aspect i think, its telephoto lens is amazing. I'm going to buy it.

[@RennieAsh]

Sometimes natural looks boring, and the boosted image pops. But it’s a problem when the boosted image happens when you don’t want it to be boosted, and then that looks bad.

[@supaahflyy]

@@davidlegkodukh6969 you're not wrong. That's why Samsung phones have won the blind camera comparison that mkbhd does yearly. But that's the general population. You might be like me that wants the picture to look as close to real life that I remember seeing at the time

[@1337Superfly]

Wow, am I seeing this correctly..? Pixel 5 actually has the best video!

[@carlosovni7100]

For me S20 fe and if you don't like satured colors you can reduced in the circle of focus in half of the 1nd with a swipe or drag...now , if you want better photos in all ways use the pro-mode .

[@Kilmonjaro117]

I've been watching so many of these comparison videos and its so confusing because some of them the iPhone looks better and others the Pixel looks better. I guess that goes to show how close they are.

[@swaggyeggs]

The reviewer missed the ghosting issue of the iPhone on 6:16 on the right wall. Such common oversight on comparisons.

Fantastic video as ever. Pixel 5 for me, they just have the natural colour accuracy spot on.

[@jamilaboudaher]

I don't understand why people are bashing the S20 FE. In terms of video it's much better than the pixel both in the front and the back, and it's pretty much at the same level of the iPhone. In terms of photos, if you don't want that over saturated look just turn off scene optimiser. Also, people don't care about astrophotography as much as they do for regular night shots, and the FE's HDR is way better, just look at this pic 6:13. Plus, the zoom capabilities of the FE make it the most versatile out of the bunch.

[@RodolphosTechchannel]

Same level of iPhone? Lol you are clearly not the professional. The video in those phones is a joke

[@marcusahu]

They are all awesome phones,, Comes down to personal preference..

[@Thetechchap]

Agreed!

[@garyz777]

really great and helpful video. the FE is second behind the Pixel in camera performance but last in microphone performance; you voice was more "muddy" and less clear and natural sounding compared with the other two phones. The FE did kill in in ultra telephoto, however. I'm left with a lot to think about but I thank you for that :)

[@egidefiska]

Pixel 5 stabilization is DOPE!!!!!! I can barely see the stuttering or jiggling effect while you're walking😍

[@whourdadie]

I disagree with most (not all) of the photos that you didn't like of the S20 FE. I liked most of them (again, not all) better. The iphone overall was the worst in some cases (some that you picked) but the pixel overall was the worst all around in my humble opinion. I might go buy an S20 FE now. I'm needing a new phone. BTW... I have used iphone and different android phones and can honestly say I like android just a TAD better, but would buy and iphone if I thought it was a phone with more features I liked for the price range I'm after. After seeing other S20 FE reviews and seeing this review, I really like that phone. I guess my taste in the way pics look is different from yours, but thanks for the comparison video.

[@Invisibleyourdaddy]

S20 FE Beast of 2020

[@syimang]

If you are into a true to life photos, color accuracy, sharpness & a little bit more serious into photography, might as well go for pixel, if you like a zoom- in camera, better performance, gaming etc. go for s20 fe.

[@Frostbitten.]

S20 looks the best.

[@TheYuriLessa]

Just a fun fact, where I live the iphone 12 is right now about 2.5x the price of the Galaxy S20FE

[@itsmuhammad2305]

FE us the most balanced phone here, it might not be the best camera but it's a great phone overall.

[@davidlegkodukh6969]

Samsung phones have improved a lot over the past 3 years. Photos have been improving constantly

[@turjokhan5727]

In January the price of S20 FE will be approximately 500-550$ Which is a great value and also a flagship device compared to the others.

[@johnsecret1318]

The astrophotography on pixel took so much time and yet you didn't used the pro mode on the FE .. What a shame

[@kiritsu79]

It's impossible for a camera so small as the cameras of smartphones to capture that range of stars in pictures, comparisons always use automatic settings, if we control the cameras with pro modes and stuff all of them can look the same

[@falk3nn]

love my pixel 5 in general. wish it had a setting to change colour profile to boost the saturation a bit by default tho, as personally I have to edit every photo I take to boost it a touch. personal taste.

[@RedPMD]

Wow Pixel 5 crushes the iPhone 12 to my taste.

[@presidentorange9051]

Keep in mind the Pixel 5 is using old camera technology. Their post image processing is mind blowing

[@KartikJayaraman79]

From your review, it looks like the S20 FE is the best of the bunch. The iPhone photos are just too artificial and the Pixel is just a little boring to use

[@OXIR]

S20 FE is really a very good value Especially the 5G version because of Snapdragon 865. The camera is on par with both others. And it has a much more powerful and future proof processor. Then it has 120Hz display. Best phone Samsung has made in years. Maybe not "Ultra" but right for most at a reasonable price.

[@silesharpshooter]

The iPhone actually has the more powerful processor in this comparison, by more than a fair margin.

[@Gaurav-hj2vy]

[@reubenbenjamin8128]

To be fair I actually like the saturated & vibrant pictures of Samsung S20 FE over pixel and IPhone

[@mlsterlous]

Interesting. I am the one who doesnt like oversaturated look by default. But this time i actually think that samsung wins clearly, because its not too much saturation and contrast, just enough to look really good, and these fotos a "instagram ready", no need to edit them. Samsung photos just look true to life, at least on my pretty good calibrated monitor.

[@Turqle]

not that it takes post-processing or custom settings into account, but just out-of-the-box footage here, the iphone looks clearly in the lead, and I'm not a big Apple fan. Great comparison, it can be hard to do a controlled test of these things.

[@shehryarhakeem]

Samsung s20 fe 👌💗

[@ITpanda]

When you do the note 20 ultra camera comparison please include the Xperia 1 ii. After learning to account for different lighting conditions (properly setting the shutter, iso, and white balance, etc.) the pictures and videos are amazing!

[@Juicybb_zb1]

I actually prefer the colours on the s20 fe (it's how I normally edit my photos anyways, so saves a lot of time). & the selfie camera is super clear with that 32mp camera! Built in adjustable beautifying and tones are a big plus, so you really don't even need a 3rd party app to do these adjustments :O

[@AndroidisAmazing]

6:35 you can't compare night mode in astrophotography cuz iphone and pixel does not have a pro mode so they made the astrophotography feature built in to the night mode.however in s20 fe,you do get pro options and if i am not wrong,it also has built in mode only for astrophotography.
