Hey guys welcome to trending reviews. My name is UMA, and today I'm going to be showing you, my new Google Pixel to excel, and I'm gonna. Give you a comparison with my Samsung s, 8 plus, so I've been using media Google Pixel for about five days now, and I just wanted to give you an overview of how I can compare this with the camera, video and audio quality as compared to my Samsung s, 8 plus. So let's have a look, and let me know what you guys think, and we'll get straight into it. Ok guys! So let's have a look at this first picture, so I went to the local park and I took a picture of the hills and some of the architecture that is there. So this landscape picture the left one as you can see, on the Google Pixel, to compare to the one on the right with the Samsung s.8 to me, it seems like the s.8 has a little over the edge with the quality here, but just to let you know the pictures that I have on the s.8 + are turned on with the HDR mode, so it does enhance the pictures a bit more. However, the one on the Google Pixel, you can see a bit more of the sky, so you see more of a natural blue shining through some clouds there.
Everything else seems to be pretty much almost the same. This next picture is of a little seesaw and again, on the left hand, side it's a little more vibrant, I guess, except one on the right hand, side with, for the is+ to me is a little sharper. But again this is not the best image to tell as we go into having a look at some different lighting effects. Now this next one is one I've aimed directly at the sun shining through the clouds. Now is a little of a variation in the color scheme here, so the one in the Google Pixel.
You can see a little more of a sepia kind of filter coming through with the sun shining through those clouds, the one on the right for the Samsung. It seems to be a little more natural I've, seen more of the blue in the sky, whereas I see a very tiny faint part of the blue sky on Google Pixel. However, having said that, I see more of the grass on the Google Pixel, then on the is+, you see more of the shadows and the darkness. Some houses are a bit more visible as well on the pixel. Next picture, I actually managed to catch a bird flying past as well.
If you can notice there, however, the qualities are pretty much aligned here. I think the blue sky is almost on point in both pictures. You can, you zoom in and get the same quality for each of the views from this. From this angle, both phones I took pictures in 16 by 9 ratio at the highest megapixel that the phone offers, so now I'm going to show you a couple of videos and I have the optical image stabilization on for each of them and let's see how they look. So, judging by the Google Pixel, it's starting up a little more steady I can see that the Samsung is equally a bit more steady coming down the hill overall, it seems like to me the pixels slightly is a little more steady on the video.
But again, let's have a look at another video in later on now, just having a look at the portrait mode versus the Selective focus mode on the Samsung, eight, so from the front selfie mode on the Samsung, eight on the right hand, side there, you can see a bit of the blurring around my glasses on the left-hand side and a tiny bit of my hat, whereas the one on the pixel on left there, you can see that it's managed to gather the lines perfectly around the shape of my head, the glasses, the cap and blurred the backbone pretty well, actually. So that definitely goes to the Google Pixel for a plus point there. So, moving on a couple of more images I took just walking through you can have the comparison, see what you think stands out a little more I. Try to take one in different scenarios with trees in the way of the sky places with is a little more shadow, and you can see the vibrancy in the water, for example, in the pond here. I also did a portrait mode versus selective focus mode on a leaf in the bushes here, I think the pixel picked it up a little better because in the Samsung s8 you can see that the selected focus runs out a tiny bit on the right-hand side on the corner there.
However, it's almost similar to the pixel put both very good quality. Now here's a selfie pick with the Sun in the background I can see that the pixel wins here, because you can see a lot more vibrancy and higher quality in the face as well, whereas this way too bright in the Samsung Si and you can see the sky in the background. It's almost white, whereas in the pixel you can see that actually the blue shining through is also the front and the front camera is actually doing really well there now going back to the videos and now here's me just running down the path just to tick the stabilization, so you can see from there that s8 starts jolting a little more now, I can see the pixel is jerking a bit more than s8 it's not as quite as smooth as I, initially thought it was going to be when I first got the Google Pixel. Now, if I'm being honest, I, think there's not a massive of difference in the image stabilization for both phones, I think they both do a perfect job, but it all depends on the type of activity you're doing to utilize that as well, so moving on I'm going to take some show you some indoor pictures I took. So this is of a plant with some lighting that I have in my house now just to see the coloring I think these Samsung s8 stands out a little more vibrant in there, whereas the pixel seems like more natural colors, but again, remember I did have the HDR mode on the Samsung I say the next picture shows my TV screen with Philips LED lighting behind the screen.
Now the pixel stands out much more than this because it brings out the vibrancy in the actual lighting from behind the TV, which you can see shining on the walls, and now this picture is when the Sun has completely set it's a cloudy day from my back garden. I can see the sky in the Google. Pixel is a lot darker with the blue tint, whereas on the SI you see, the clouds are completely great. Now I think the s8 wins on this one I think that's what more realistically it looks like when I took this photo, so it depends on low lighting, the conditions and the mode that your phone is on, but s8 wins on that front again, this is a shot of a street in front of my house and I. Think for me.
Naturally, it looks like the s8 has got a better photo on this one. The pixel has a bit of a greenish tint to it, but overall not too far away from each other. Here's one of a tree now there's a big difference in this one with the pixel most of the tree is hidden in darkness. This was completely at nighttime. The only light that you see there is coming from our lampposts and on the Samsung I sit there on the right.
You can see pretty much all the tree with the brightness coming down from underneath it looks more natural and displays more of a real-life scenario. Okay, so let's have a listen to some audio recordings from each of the phones. I used a voice recorder, app on both the pixel and the is+ and let's see how they both came out. So, let's start off with the Google Pixel audio recording, first, okay guys. So this is the Google Pixel to excel audio recording I'm, using a voice recorder, app to record this piece of audio.
Now it's been reported quite a lot online by pixel users, specifically on Google forums, that the pixel to excel audio, recording quality is a little high-pitched and distorted. But let me know what you think in the comments below on the audio quality here, and we can compare this with the Samsung is+ okay. So now, let's have a listen to the is+, audio, recording and I use a very similar voice, recording app and I recorded it at the same distance from my mouth to the phone, and so the comparison has to be pretty much exact. But let's see how the results came up. Okay, so this is an audio test on the Samsung s.8 plus I've seen a lot of good positive reviews online for Samsung's video recording. But equally there's been some positive feedback on the audio recording quality on the Galaxy phones.
So let me know what you think in the comments below, if you think this quality compared to the Google Pixel 2 is a lot better or if you think you prefer the pixel 2 then do let me know, but this is a good comparison just to see the difference using a voice recorder app, as you can see, even just from the waveforms right there. The SI twins by far, and I know that a lot of people have reported on the pixel audio quality in general and being poor and high-pitched and that kind of stuff. So the SAE quality is far beyond the one that pixel can do at the moment, which is a real shame, because I was hoping that audio would be a little better by Google, but unfortunately they haven't gone that way, but the SA quality is more vibrant. It stands out a bit more, and you know you can compare very easily with one of the top end phones out there in terms of audio. So unfortunately, the is+ wins on that pot, but I did have high expectations for the Google phone and forcing that didn't happen, but hopefully we can see in the future some better updates by Google on the actual audio overall, if I have to hand it to one of them, and it would most likely have to go to the Google Pixel I think, because the portrait mode is a lot better than the Selective focus.
That's one of the reasons why I've got the Google Pixel and generally the quality is almost on par. I mean these two phones are, in my opinion, the phones which have got the best cameras out there today. So I think overall, camera would win on the Google Pixel. The HDR will sometimes take better quality pictures on the Samsung s sake. But again, that's your opinion.
Let me know what you guys think if you've had both of these phones, which one do you prefer and which one has the better video quality image, stabilization, image, stabilization and so on. So thanks for watching guys, I hope that was useful and hope you enjoyed it. If you liked it, please give it a thumbs up, and I'll see you at the next video.
