iPhone 11 Pro vs Galaxy S20: Camera Comparison! Which is Better? By Daniel Romero

Hey guys this is going to deal here today we are checking out the Samsung Galaxy S 20 and the iPhone 11 Pro cameras. Now we're going to go ahead and switch over to both of those right now and what you're seeing now is, of course, both of the devices recording at 4k 30 frames per second now we're going to go ahead and switch to the audio on the Samsung Galaxy s 20. So now, you're listening to me on the Samsung Galaxy s 20. This is the audio quality with the front-facing camera home about a couple feet away, and now we're switching over to the iPhone 11 Pro. Now this is the audio quality on the iPhone 11 Pro a couple of feet away. So there you go.

That's an overall look, I'm, just gonna straight-up tell you guys, which one is which it's up to you. You want to be. You know, unbiased or not, but you know. Hopefully you guys can see all the images that I'm going to include in this video and really see which one is better than the other one after using both of these overall, the determined that it really is. A preference thing there are cases which the s20 takes an overall, better image that I like and is more pleasing to the eye and then other cases, the iPhone 11 Pro.

Does that, as far as my opinion goes, this is just my opinion on the images overall I thought that the iPhone overall just did much better skin tones like whenever there's a skin involved. The tones on the f-111 Pro are more lifelike than the ones on the s20 and, of course, it's very different to something like my euros, RP that I'm recording with this right now. But if I go ahead and turn off the lights, let's see a different scene. So it's its all in Auto, so you guys can see this and again, you can see the change there. My hair and my skin are very contrasting on the s20, while on the allotment pro it looks less contrast and the thing is, you might prefer the way that it looks on the s20 and that's totally cool I.

Just for me involves filming something. I would totally prefer the one on the LM pro right now, because it feels like something that I could work with a little better. However, again it's just a preference thing: let's go ahead and turn on all the lights. You can see them there do their thing. I also feel, like the s20 looks a little over X, a tiny bit just right there, seeing it on the phone itself.

But again this is all being recorded with the s20 and the 11pro. So any footage that you see of the s20 right now is being shot with the 11pro and any footage of the 11pro is being shot with the s20, not just as another test. Let's just go ahead and grab these two things right here, the plant and this lens and just bring it up to the camera here, we'll see if it focuses well I'm, bringing two things, of course up to the cameras. Let's bring this main one in here, you'll see how the camera acts there and how it changes, things and I don't know. Let me know what you guys think in the comments of course, just be unbiased.

It doesn't really matter which one is better in these particular situations. They're, both amazing cameras, if you know how to use them properly and everything, of course, of you now on something like film and use the pro mode on the s20. You can get better footage than what you see here, but the point here is to put an automatic which most people use their phones on automatic. Anyway, there you go there, we got a green plant, you can see how both cameras react and act again. These are the front-facing cameras which aren't great, but at this point they should be a main focus of the manufacturers, because so many people use them for ticktocks, vlogging, etc.

, but yeah. That concludes this portion of the test. So we'll move on to the voice over so that we can, you know, look at all the images that I've taken and review them, see them side by side, etc. Alright guys, so now we're moving on to the back cameras and all the photography aspect of these devices and for this portion of the video I thought I. Would let you guys kind of decide on your own? The left pictures will be the iPhone 11 Pro.

The right pictures will be the galaxy s.20 I'm, not gonna, talk about any picture in particular, because I've made this video actually a number of times, I've come to the conclusion that this is really, really difficult. A lot of it comes down to personal preference and, honestly out of all the shots, you'll see here, I think it was 5050 for me. In some cases, I preferred the s20. In some cases, I preferred the iPhones pictures. I think this comes down to again a preference thing and kind of similar argument.

Have you heard about kind of cannon, color signs versus Sony, color science, things like that where, upon first look, someone might prefer one picture just because of the overall kind of colors you have in the image, just as a general rule of thumb that I notice with all these pictures that you might be able to see is that the s20 tends to favor warmer tones and adds a little more yellow to the pictures and the iPhone 11 Pro tends to favor the cooler tones and add some more blue to the pictures? It's clearly evident here in this kind of picture that I took of a very yellow light and the iPhone took that yellow light and turned it completely white and daylight. So that's something to keep in mind as to how they kind of changed that they're. The only other thing that I want to talk about is skin tones, and it's in particular with this picture right here, where you can clearly see that the guy on the left looks a lot better than the guy on the right, and that is just kind of when we zoom in here. You kind of see that the highlights and there's some artifacts around the face in there I don't know what happened with these picture, but it happened, and it is worth noting it didn't happen at any of the other pictures that I took. Maybe it was just this particular angle.

This particular light to this particular focus, but again, I did overall prefer the face tones on the iPhone. For me now both devices are capable of dark mode. Both devices take perfect dark mode pictures without dark mode. I think the s20 has a slight edge over the iPhone, especially in this picture. Here you can see the s1c is a little brighter a little better.

It has a little more detail and overall I think is better and just as a test, I kind of went into a really dark bathroom just to see what these two would do and complete nighttime, and you can see here the difference between the s20 and the 11pro, which one is better I personally think there is a clear winner as to which one was managed to do this particular test a little better. But of course again, I don't want to really speak to the pictures that much this I just wanted to go over some kind of general rules that end up happening throughout numerous pictures. One other last thing that I noticed before we move on to the video portion of this video with the K and 4k was that the Galaxy detect to over sharpen some images and I don't know if that is super noticeable on your end, after YouTube compresses everything and everything. But if you pay close attention there, and you see some parts, you might notice that maybe some things you might not like or particularly actually like about the s20, is that it sharpens the image a little more I, particularly don't like that, because that's something that if I wanted I could do in Lightroom or just edit that myself. But you know if you particularly do like that sharp image and a little more of a sharpness to things you will prefer the look coming out of the s20 in most cases again, this is a really tough decision, and it ends up being like what do you like the most the right side or the left side, and that's your favorite camera at the end of day.

That's what you would choose alright! So now, let's move on to the video portion of the video, and that is that both of these devices do capture some really incredible: video for smartphones, again we're kind of nitpicking at this point, because both devices are able to do such incredible things that dwarfed, what devices just two years ago could do. So that's always worth keeping in mind it's at the end of the day. Whatever device you get, the cameras on these things are kind of a phenomenal. It's amazing what manufacturers have been able to do. These are just like little net picks here and there that we talked about.

So again we have a Que video on the s20 and is that a gimmick yeah pretty much it is, but does it work well, yeah? It actually does work really well. So we have this video of 4k footage from the iPhone and then 8k footage from the s20, and we definitely do get more detail on the s20 video. When we zoom in and look at details, you can clearly see that you can still see details on the s20 and things are looking really, really sharp and perfect. And, oddly enough it doesn't look too over digitally sharper than this one. This one looks actual sharp, and it looks actually perfect, and really it's up to you to set aside some of these looks kind of art, also preferential and in some parts of the video I do prefer the iPhones look and then boom it switches over, and I'd prefer kind of the yellow hues that the s20 is looking and giving to the image.

So it's up to you to see what you like, overall from both what both of these devices are doing here. It is worth noting that the s20 did not focus on things when I kind of came up close to them for some reason, sometimes, and I was not happening on the screen, particularly because sometimes you're recording you're, not tapping you kind of just wanted to know that you wanted to focus on that and the ESTA, the iPhone alum pro nil, that every single time with a tree with the leaves that I pointed at the s20 did not when it does focus. It looks perfect, but it's worth noting that the software there's something just that Samsung is lagging behind on so yeah I. Think the perfect phone camera is somewhere right in the middle, where it doesn't make the picture too cool, and it doesn't make the picture too warm, and we can't have that, so I. Think overall, is the s1t worth getting over.

You know something like a s10 just because of the camera, no I, don't think the upgrade is significant enough, especially if you just use pictures to share to Instagram or anything like that is the iPhone 11 Pro worth getting over the s20 just because of the camera. No, not really, there are other features about it that you should be looking into that are more important overall for the usage and I think a camera. Unless it's you, you, you value it so, so much. It's going to end up being your choice to make the decision on what you take pictures of and based on samples that you see online what you actually prefer, the look of and yeah that's it. There is no better camera here, it's preferential and depending on what you use it for and what you take for.

I. Think in the past, with the s10 I did definitely prefer the 11pro, but of course the s20 is a little better than the s10. So there it is its a tough choice, but that is my comparison between the two cameras, and I'm, not an expert I'm, not a photography, expert I, don't spend my days, photography things and taking pictures of everything and then picking things and stuff what I get rid of my 11-part to get the s20? No, it's not an improvement over my 11 Pro is in some cases it is, but not enough, and it's not worth me going ahead and switching it over I'm, looking forward to checking out something like the Sony, Xperia 1 mark ii, mainly because that is coming from a company that not only knows optics but is really, really good at processing images and has gotten very, very good in the past couple of years at doing so we'll see if they keep updating the cameras and that's pretty much it for this video guys. Thank you for watching I'll catch you in next video goodbye.
