I (Vadim) took the new iPhone 13 Pro Max and the S21 Ultra home over the weekend and I took a BUNCH of photos with each of them and I put them all together in a video timeline.
Max & Angelika have never seen any of these photos, so they have no idea which photo was taken by which smartphone, so that makes this the MOST UNBIASED camera comparison possible!
I took shots with every single lens from the selfie camera, to the main wide shooter, the ultrawide lens and some zoom shots as well.
I also tested Portrait shots, Night Mode shots and even Night Mode portrait shots to see which smartphone camera is the BEST in 2021!

I think the Iphone 13 pro max had the upper hand since most photos there were potrait photos. Else....this cameras are neck and neck. I love how Mrwhosetheboss or Supersaf did different categories to find out the strengths of each camera. Add variety maybe like more landscapes and stuff. Coz generally, iphones are great with potrait photos hence the win. Otherwise....both great cameras..one can never go wrong with any.

Nice video. In most portrait mode photos, Samsung lost because the blur effect was very exaggerated, but remember that in the S21 Ultra you can adjust it so that it is not so exaggerated, I think that is an important factor to consider.

[@octavianschaefer7294]

This is a huge point because it pretty much encapsulates the differences between Samsung and apple. Apple focuses more on a "it just works" point and shoot mindset, whereas Samsung can produce great quality shots too, but you just have to have a better grasp on how to use the software.

I find comparing some of those photos to be somehow difficult. There are more factors than “camera quality”. The spot used for measurement/focus (selected either manually or automatically) will create much different results, especially for light/contrast. The processing AI will then potentially react differently and increase differences. This happens even when shooting multiple fotos with the exact same device… What do you think?

Couple of questions for you, Vadim, regarding the photographer on these tests. 1.) Are the shots presented in the video we see ALL of the shots you took with both cameras? That's important to know to make sure there's no subconscious bias in the selection of the photos. And 2.) Do you have a rule for only being able to take the shot once? Meaning, if one phone doesn't get the shot right on the first try and the other phone does, do you leave it be, or do you retake the shot with the second phone? Love these comparisons! Great video as always.

Hey, a great comparison there! Although I know it’s very hard to do it, but for shots that involve humans or animals, next time, please make sure that both phones captured the scenes at the same time. Or at least, when the subjects are doing the same exact pose. Because shots like the one on 3:20 is so unfair to compare as the subject herself was not doing the exact same pose and her hair wasn’t at the same position as the other shot. That’s because there’s a few strands of hair being blurred, as seen in the second photo.

It's interesting to see how biased are lots of people. When "Samsung" used to add quite a lot of over-sharpening and over-saturation, many people hated the fact that their photos looked unnatural (including me). However, now iPhone 13 adds exactly the same type of fake-looking over-sharpening and over-saturation, yet many people say they prefer their photos, despite the fact that the majority of S21 Ultra's photos looked more natural and less processed. iPhone's photo at the 10:00 minute looks extremely fake, yet it received a win simply because its fake colours and over-sharpening "pop" more to the eyes of the viewers. Also, there is something wrong with your S21 Ultra's night time portrain at the 13:50 minute, because that phone has very robust performance in dark situations. It has a great night-time portrait mode and looks like you didn't used it at all, which makes the comparison pointless (maybe that's something that you had to turn on at the settings?). One thing to note is that this particular comparison was not done right, because about half of the photos were shot from noticeably different angles and distances. The shot from the driver's position was even taken from totally different locations, which you can tell judging by the environment and the one-minute difference in time on the clock. Some photos had different clouds, too. One photo had a moving car in the frame while the other didn't. Obviously, that affects the auto focus of the camera and the general processing of the whole picture. Don't get me wrong, both phones are great and I like your content and the way you do blind tests, but at the same time my opinion is that a proper camera comparison should put both phone cameras in the exact same conditions.

I can tell you first hand that I would’ve been happy with the 12 Pro Max but I buckled and bought the 13 Pro Max! It’s a little better in camera but overall I would be perfectly happy with the 12. Save your money!

Were there bigger differences in capturing time in night mode? Other people mentioned that the iPhone most of the times only takes half of the time? Can you guys confirm this? Greetings from Germany - keep up these great videos :)

iPhone definitely has a better dedicated portrait mode. I almost never use it on my S21 Ultra because the massive sensor has real bokeh without the need for portrait mode IMO.

You can tell on every picture which phone is which. The iPhone 13 was brighter and sharper on every picture. The S21 looked better when you needed the shot to be a bit more "artsy" or darker.

Camera comparison!!?? Or, more like a portrait comparison Edit: If 8/10 shots were zoom pics then the results would be obvious as well. Not fair comparisons at all.

[@kgvertu]

What blur setting did you have on portrait mode? You can go from 1-7.

S21 Ultra: 9 13 Pro Max: 21 Genuinely surprised

[@bray2079]

The one thing that always kills samsung cameras for me is the shutter delay. With the iphone photos are taken instantly, but with Samsung there is always a second delay after pressing the shutter. This causes me to miss so many photos of my family.

This is being solved by one ui 4.0 but nonetheless it is too late.

[@dirtycash17]

Will you do a test using the new iPhone photographic styles? It would be interesting to see if it affects the scoring.

[@centenary6618]

It seems like the iPhone likes to heavily saturate the sky with blue, even in the night shots. I was able to predict with almost complete accuracy which photo came from the iPhone if the photo had the sky in it. I did like the extra blue in those shots. I do have to wonder if it accurately reflected what was in the scene.

It's kinda hard really in my opinion to compare a very brand new iPhone 13 to S21. iPhone definitely have a brighter picture and smoother surface looking but S21 looks sharper and some has a very balance contrast and saturation. Yall should try comparing iPhone 13 with S22 next year too.
