iPhone 12 vs 12 Pro Max vs Samsung Galaxy S20 FE vs Note 20 Ultra | Camera Comparison By SoyaCincau

Hey guys happy 2021 and welcome back to another camera comparison video, so I know it's been quite a while, since we did this kind of video, but now we are back- and we have four fascinating smartphones to compare so this time, I'm going to try something a bit different. So previously you see me comparing devices that have the same price range, but this time I'm going to compare the till and the silo of a smartphone series, or rather a certain smartphone brand. This is actually to see if the more affordable device is able to keep up or on par with the more expensive ones. First, up we have the iPhone 12 out of the iPhone 12 series. This is one of my favorites to me. It has the perfect size and I like that it has a perfect camera, but is it as good as the iPhone 12 Pro max and is the iPhone 12 Pro max really worth the money and since we're comparing iPhones? I think it is a perfect opportunity to compare Samsung devices as well, and that is why I've chosen the Samsung Galaxy, s20, Fe and also the note 20 ultra the Samsung Galaxy s20 Fe is one of the more interesting smartphones to be launched last year because it is affordable but has a lot of what makes Samsung flagship so popular.

But what about the camera? Can it really compete with something like the Samsung Galaxy note, 20 ultra, which is Samsung's best smartphone camera to date? So right now, there's only one way to find out, so before we move into the camera comparison. So let's take a look at each camera, specs of each smartphone. So first, let's start off with the iPhone 12 Pro max, so this device has three 12 megapixel camera with a main telephoto and an ultra white sensor. It also has a 3d TOF LIDAR sensor, as well as a 12 megapixel selfie camera. I also need to mention that the iPhone 12 Pro max comes with a sensor shift optical image, stabilization system, so rather than letting the lens do all the work, this system incorporates a floating sensor to counterbalance hand movements.

However, you will not find this on the more affordable, iPhone 12, and you will also not find the telephoto camera on the iPhone 12. Okay. So now, let's move on to Samsung devices, and we will start off with the Samsung Galaxy note 20 ultra, so this device has a triple camera setup with a 108 megapixel main camera, a 12 megapixel telephoto camera, as well as a 12 megapixel ultra white camera. It also has a 10 megapixel camera for selfies. So now, let's move on to the Samsung Galaxy s20 Fe.

So this device has a triple camera setup with a 12, megapixel main camera and 8 megapixel telephoto camera, as well as a 12 megapixel ultra white camera. It also has a 32 megapixel camera for selfies. So now we have talked about the specs of each camera. So let's start off this comparison with this set of pictures. So the purpose of this set of pictures is to take a look at how well each smartphone handles dynamic range okay.

So the first thing that you will notice is that the highlights of the skies are blown out on the s20 Fe. This means that the dynamic range is not very good on the s20 Fe, since it can't capture the details in both highlights and shadows, it exposed the shadows, and that is why the highlights got blown out. The iPhone 12, on the other hand, does a completely different thing. You lose the details in the trees and leaves because the phone decided to keep the details in the sky. The note 20 ultra and the 12 pro max don't have this problem.

They both were able to retain details in the sky and in the shadows, meaning it has a better dynamic range. Okay, so let's first compare the ones between the s20 Fe and the note 20 ultra. When you put the pictures side by side, you wouldn't really notice any difference between the two. But if you look a bit closer, there are some differences. For example, if you take a look at this building, you will notice that the lines on the s20 Fe are not super straight and some buildings look like they are leaning back.

This distortion is not noticeable on the note 20 ultra and if you were punching into buildings on the left corner, you can also see that the details of the rails are much more prominent on the note 20 ultra, so it definitely has a better ultra-wide lens. Unlike their android rivals, there isn't much difference between the two iPhone's images. They are both equally sharp. The details are there and there's no distortion going on, which is great, alright, so moving on to the wide angle, camera test, I'm actually really surprised to see how well the s20 Fe performs in this category, even though it doesn't come with a 108 megapixel main camera. Like the note 20 ultra, the results of the pictures between the two phones are not that far off and when you're punching into the temple, you can see that the details are all still there, and it really is comparable to the note 20 ultra and when you take a look at the iPhone 12 and the iPhone 12 Pro max, they are also not so far off from each other as well.

The differences between them are almost non-existent I'll say, but the most noticeable difference between the iPhones and the Samsung is the brightness. The iPhones are a bit brighter, while the Samsung are a bit dark and look quite dull. Here's where things start to change, because each phone has different max zoom ranges like I mentioned earlier in this video. The iPhone 12 is the only smartphone that doesn't come with a dedicated telephoto lens, so it definitely doesn't have the same reach. The Galaxy Note 20 ultra can zoom in the furthest with 50 times, digital zoom.

So that means you can see the Chinese characters. Clearly the iPhone 12 Pro max and the s20 Fe both have 10 times and 30 times. Digital zoom, respectively. I think that the iPhone 12 has the worst image quality here, since it does not have a telephoto camera. If you punch it in, you can't really see the Chinese characters properly.

The note 20 ultra, on the other hand, is able to zoom, in so close to the Chinese characters and the details are really sharp. So that's a win for the note 20 ultra, but in terms of the colors I prefer the ones produced on the iPhones, because the colors are more pleasant to the eyes, and they are more natural looking compared to the ones on Samsung devices, but I still give the win to the Galaxy Note 20 ultra, because it can reach even further with its 50 times digital zoom, and can definitely still see the details of the temple. Since the iPhone 12 doesn't come with a telephoto camera. You will notice that the iPhone 12's portrait photos are a little different from the others. We also noticed that, even though the s20 Fe comes with a telephoto camera, the portrait picture is not shot on the telephoto camera, which we find it weird so to match.

The framing we'll try to reposition the subject to match the framing of the other two phones. That is why you will see the angle is slightly different between all four cameras. I personally prefer the ones taken on the note 20 ultra and the iPhone 12 Pro max, because it has a more flattering angle, but that's what I think I know some might even like the pictures taken on the s20 Fe and the iPhone 12, because the angle makes me look a little slimmer, that's it. I think all four images have perfect edge detection because they all did a good job at separating me from the background. My skin tone also looks natural in all photos.

So that's great. Now, let's move on to selfies right off the bat. I think you guys will know which one of these belongs to the iPhone and which one belongs to Samsung. Obviously, the ones with beautification is the Samsung, while the more natural looking ones are the iPhones. I wouldn't say that any of these are better because at this point it really depends on your personal preference, on whether you like your selfies, to have beautification or not.

For me, I like the realistic, looking picture of the iPhones, but do let me know which ones you think looks best so now, let's move on to the macro test. All four phones don't come with a dedicated macro camera, but I want to see how close each main camera can focus to a subject. As you can see, the note 20 ultras picture is slightly more saturated than the others. The raid is brighter than the others, but that isn't a huge deal, but it's funny that when I'm using the iPhone 12 Pro max, the device seems to have problems focusing on the car steering wheel, but that doesn't happen on the iPhone 12. I've tried positioning the iPhone 12 Pro max the same way.

I positioned the other three phones, but it still doesn't want to focus, so I am forced to place the iPhone 12 Pro max a bit further from the subject now. Moving on to one of my favorite modes. In smartphones- and it is time to take a look at some shots taken at night- the iPhone 12 Pro max has a LIDAR scanner, which is the black circle right here. This scanner is to help you focus better in low light. The note 20 ultra has a similar laser autofocus system, but that has a more limited range, but do these actually help? You take better low-light images, so, let's find out so for this test.

I think it is fair to take pictures with night mode off and on when the night mode is off. You'll notice that the iPhone's picture leans more towards a warmer heel. While these Samsung devices have a cooler tone once the night mode is turned on, the pictures are slightly brighter, especially if you look at the skies. All four phones handle noise reduction, pretty well. The s20, Fe and note20 ultra.

Don't have many differences in terms of quality and that's actually perfect. But if you take a look at the iPhone 12 Pro max photo specifically you'll notice that both pictures, including the one with night mode, turned on, have a noticeable lens flare compared to all the other photos. This is actually quite surprising since the iPhone 12 and e12 pro max uses the exact same camera system. I also noticed that there is a patch of color noise on the wall of the house. I suspect that could be caused by the lens flare all right.

So, let's move on to the last category of this comparison, and it is none other than the stabilization test. This footage was shot on each camera's main lens at 4k 60 frames per second. If you watch the video side by side, you will notice that the s20 Fe suffers from minor jittering, which makes the video unnatural, but other than that all four devices did a perfect job stabilizing the video as I'm walking, but you can definitely see differences in terms of brightness and color vibrancy. The footage from the iPhones are noticeably brighter than the ones on the Samsung, especially if you focus on the plants and the sky. The greens produced on the iPhones are much more vibrant than the Samsung and the sky is slightly brighter too.

However, Samsung's footage is closer to what I've seen that day, because the sky is quite dark when we're about to shoot this camera comparison, but do tell me which one you prefer, so now we have seen all the pictures. So can this silo really fight the Thai low? Let's first take a look at the iPhones Apple's iPhones have always been the best when it comes to taking natural and consistent looking photos and the new iPhone 12 and the 12 pro max are no different either. The only difference is that the iPhone 12 doesn't come with a dedicated telephoto camera, while the iPhone 12 Pro max do you'll also be missing out on a larger sensor, as well as a LIDAR scanner, if you're getting the iPhone 12. But to me that doesn't really matter, because if you were to take a look at the comparison, there isn't any significant difference. In terms of image quality, and even though the pro max comes with a sensor shift is, the videos taken on the iPhone 12 is on par with a more expensive, iPhone 12 Pro max.

So if you are planning to get an iPhone, I think the best option now is the iPhone 12. Alright. So now, let's talk about these Samsung devices, the galaxy s20 Fe and the flagship class note 20 ultra to me, what's fascinating about the s20 Fe, is that it has a really attractive price tag for the specs you are getting. The pictures are also very comparable to the Galaxy Note 20 ultra, which is amazing. The only thing that I don't understand is that, even though the s20 FP has its own telephoto camera, the portrait picture is still not shot by the telephoto camera, which is weird hey, but look at the bright side.

At least you get a slim looking picture of yourself just and fun fact. This is also the most affordable smartphone in this comparison, so because the quality isn't that far from the till, I think the silo has more value for money. At the end of the day, I think it's very impressive how close the cheap silo smartphones have come to the most expensive, Dino phones for most people. I think the s20 Fe and the iPhone 12 cameras are good enough. So that's good news because you can save a lot of money but still get like 80 of the camera performance.

Unless you are a hardcore mobile photographer, I think that the iPhone 12 and the s20 Fe is good enough, but that's what I think. So what do you think do?
