Google Pixel 4 XL vs. LG V50 ThinQ 5G Camera Comparison By Grant Likes Tech

Huzzah Furman grant here welcome back to another camera comparison. Video today, I've got the Google Pixel for Excel up against the LGA 50, thank you, and so this would be a comparison and some pretty good lighting conditions here, and so, if you're looking for a low-light comparison, I usually do those in separate videos now so be on the lookout. For that low light. Video and now, like I, said I'll, be taking a lot of photos and videos like I, always do and will let you see the differences in auto mode on both of these cameras, and portrait mode, and I'll shoot a bunch of video in different resolutions and frame rates. So it's my goal that by then this will you be. It was judged for yourself how each of these cameras are performing and good lighting conditions and that you can make the choice between them yourself based off of your smartphone camera needs, and so let's go ahead and take a look at the photos and videos, and I'll come back at and of all of this, and let you know what I think everyone so here is a video test in the park with both of these phones.

We shot at 80, 30 frames per second, and so, of course, the pixel does not have that ultra wide-angle camera, so I'll show you that here on the LGA 50 back into lens, and so this should be a good test of the cameras. Here. We've got a lot of good colors, a lot of greens. You can see some purple and the flowers and, of course, check out the color of the sky. You pan around here, and we'll do a little with zoom test, so the 52 times and the pixel for Excel at two times, and then we go ahead and zoom all the way.

In now, the v50 can go 10 times. Digital and all the way in on the pixel, for that is 8 times digital. So you can see what that looks like here on both of these phones, and I'll zoom back out, and we go ahead and do some focused tests so check out the post here on the V 50s. If you lock in to bat, and I've notice, the V 50 does take a little time to focus there. So if I tap there, you go focus away, it did refocus back on the post, and so you can see it's taken a bit to lock in on that post and one more time and there you go, and so with the pixel for autofocus locks in a little faster with seam and refocus as well.

So you can see it there, and I also think there's a little more of that background, blur or natural bouquet from the pixel. For, but let's go ahead and test stabilization and walk down some stairs. Both of these are done well here, stabilization at 1080p. The pixel always has really nice stabilization, and I'm sure that V 50 is doing pretty well here too, but there you go one last patter on the park here at 1080p, 30 frames per second okay, and here we go with the same scene being shot at 1080p 60 frames per second, this time booked from both phones and so the V 50. Even though you've got that wide-angle lens, you can't switch between that lens here at 60 frames per second, and so this is kinda.

What it looks like now pay attention to kind of colors at 60 frames. Sometimes they look a little different I'll pan around here, and we can do some zoom. So I don't have the two times optical zoom option here, but we do have digital zoom, so I'll zoom in that's about two times zoom from each phone right there, and I'll creep up the zoom a little well, five times there with the v50 and let's see if we get to about five times here with the pinch to zoom on the pixel four. So there you go five times on each and max eight times, zoom. On the v50 at sixty frames, so not ten times like it was at thirty and max six times here at sixty frames on the pixel four, instead of eight like it had at 30 frames per second, so a little less digital zoom on both phones and if I zoom all the way back out, we can do a little of focus test again with the V 50 on the post, and again it's having a little of trouble, locking in my top to focus there.

It goes move away and, let's see, if we refocus again, so I'm noticing them have to top to focus I'm, not sure if it's a setting issue but really right now the V 50 autofocuses, not quite there, and here we go to the pixel four there we go refocus the way, pretty quickly again and one more time so again, much better there on the pixel four, and so here you go, we'll walk down the stairs to see how they stabilize at 60 frames per second. So that's a test from each of these phones, 1080p 60 frames per second, alright, and here we are back again this time at 4k 30 frames per second, so the pixel can only record at this max resolution and frame rate, while the v50 can go all the way up to 4k.60 frames per second, and I can also switch between the lenses here on the V 50. So that's wide angle compared to the pixel force main standard wide lens I'll go back into the standard lens that'll be 50, and we can pan over here to the tower so take a look at the sky. Sometimes at 4k phones can often get the color really wrong in 4k for some reason, especially in the sky. So let's go ahead and test out zoom, so there's two times optical on DV 50 and same on the pixel four, and we'll zoom in a little more roughly five times zoom there on the V 50 and you to zoom roughly five times there as well on the pixel, and so, if I go all the way in there's a plane there.

Lets you didn't catch that 10 times zoom there on the V 50 and still only a six time, zoom here at 4k, on B pixel, four and let's do again some focus tests on the post first with the V 50, and it's still having trouble locking in, so I'll top it and there we go and then away we focus and then back in on the post. There we go so with the pixel four. It just locks in pretty quickly, just like that refocus is pretty fast as well. So let's go ahead and test stabilization at 4k 30 frames per second here, as you walk down the stairs, and so I almost expect. Both of these are doing well as far as stabilization, even i4k 30.

But you let me know what do you think and what you're seeing so there you go one last pan here at 4k, 30 frames per second okay. So here is a front-facing camera test outdoors from HP's phones, their Maxima solutions are 1080p, 30 frames per second, so no forty, a recording on either front-facing camera here on the B 50 or the pixel for itself, and it's pretty windy out today. So this should be a good test of the microphones as well. How well did they cancel out and background noise as I kind of rotate the camera around? So you can kind of see how it performs adjust to the changing light here outdoors and let's go ahead and take a little of a walk just so that you can see how well each of these front-facing cameras stabilize or not stabilized, and so I just want to give you a quick sample from each of these cameras outdoors and give an idea of kind of how they perform and this kind of situation, and so now that you've seen all the photos and videos from each of these phones I'll wrap up this video by letting you know how I thought each of these phones performed, and so first starting out with the front-facing photos and video I thought that pixel for actually looked better for both video and photos. I thought they just looked sharper a little better colors than the LAB 50, which looked a little more washed out and muted in its color tone.

To me and audio on both actually sounded. Very good I was surprised by the audio and a pixel for that actually sounded pretty good to me, and we all know about how good LG's audio performance is, and that still holds true here and moving on to rear cameras. So let start off with the still photos and I understand that all high-end phones take pretty good photos and videos in good lighting conditions, but side-by-side comparison. I thought the pixel for Excel would at least look distinctly different, and while there are differences, I think the results were still very close, and you could very well go with either phone and so, as far as what I noticed, I thought. The pixel for Excel had a little sharper colors a little more punchy, colors surprisingly, and the LGA 50 looked a little more muted or actually more towards natural color.

Tones I also thought they'd be v50, did better at macro shots so with natural bouquet, not using the portrait mode effects or anything just using the natural body on the camera lens itself. By getting very close to the subject, I thought that loge delivery were natural and nicer for macro shots on the v50, then on the pixel for and as far as rear-facing video quality actually preferred the LGA 50 at 10. He thought it had the better colors and just better overall looking video quality there, while the pixel four had more muted or washed out colors. All this, except 4k video, where I thought the LAB 50 for some reason just had way off colors. That sky was just a nuclear, really neon kind of blue, and it is nowhere near how it looked in real life.

So for some reason at 4k, the colors in auto mode on the LG TV 50 kind of get out of whack, while the pixel for Excel was still fairly consistent, again a little washed out, but at least more realistic colors there at 4k on the tips of four. And so that's just my quick assessment on how I thought. Each of these cameras performed here in good lighting conditions. I think overall I would still reach for the pixel for as a point-and-shoot camera, because that's just how I like to shoot. My smartphones, I like to just running, gun and I, think the pixel for overall is an overall package.

I still prefer that, but the LG v 50 took some really great photos and videos in auto mode, and if you are a manual camera junkie, you're going to love what you can do with the LG v 50, and so that might be the phone for you. So that's gonna! Do it for this camera comparison between the Google Pixel for Excel and the LG v 50. Let me know which phone you thought did better and why, in the comments below, let's continue the discussion down there? Of course, any other general comments or questions leave them in the comment section as well, and as always, thanks for watching.
