iPhone 8 Plus VS S8 Plus - CAMERA Review! By ZONEofTECH

Hello and welcome to the ultimate camera comparison between the iPhone, 8 plus and the Samsung Galaxy S, 8 plus, so I haven't actually done a camera in person, and you know quite a while and I wanted to make up for it by doing. What's probably the world's most in-depth camera comparison between these two that anyone has ever done. So this video contains not five, not ten, but actually 20 different camera test scenarios, so everything from the Rama shots, 4k, video, recording at different resolutions bit rate comparison, storage, space, comparison, night, shots with and without flash, pretty much anything that you can think of when it comes to camera tests. Everything is covered in this video. Now, all the shots that you're about to see have been taken on full auto mode, so Avenue, just the focus I have an adjusted the exposure manually. So none of these shots have any adjustments, not even color correction applied, and I've exported all the shots from both of these devices straight from the devices of not a cloud.

So they have the original quality, no compression, nothing applied and also be sure to watch this video at 4k at 60 frames per second, if you can- or at least 60 frames per second, even if it's NADP or 720p, because the f-18 can actually do a 4k video at 60 frames per second, and only watching this video and 60. That's the only way you can actually tell the difference in smoothness, so grab some captain snacks and enjoy this ultimate camera review between Toni plus and the Samsung Galaxy S8, plus, okay, so section number one I just want to go over through all the camera specs. So on back facing camera, we have 12 megapixel sensors. On both now we have an F 1.7 aperture on the Samsung Galaxy s, 8 vs F, 1.8 temperature or the iPhone 8 plus, so the Samsung Galaxy S8 should be better in low light, but Apple has also improved the sensor on the iPhone 898, plus any icons n. So the iPhone 8 is now 83 percent, better in low light, or at least, if let's 83% more light into the sensor than the iPhone 7 did now.

When it comes to video, the f-18 can view 4k video at 60 frames per second and also 1080p at 240 and Samsung Galaxy s, 80 new 4k, 30 and 720p 40, so video wise, the iPhone H should be better and when it comes to the front-facing camera, we have an 8 megapixel sensor on s: 8 verses, 7, megapixel, sensors on the iPhone 8 F 1.7 aperture on the Samsung Galaxy s, 8 vs, f 2.2. So when it comes to the front facing camera, the s 8 should be better and also in low-light, and also when it comes to video on a front facing camera. The Samsung Galaxy s, 8 can do quad, HD, video and up to 30 frames per second, whereas the iPhone 8 can still do can only do 1080p 30 on front facing camera. So, judging by these specs alone, the s 8 should actually have a much better front-facing camera, both in low-light and just the resolution itself, but if only it should be better when it comes to video. So let's put all of these packs to the test and see ok.

So the first image is this: one: with this boat I think it's a perfect picture, because you get a lot of bright areas to get a lot of dark areas, and you also get the color from the boat. So if you take a look at a Samsung Galaxy s, 8 images, this one is quite a lot darker than the iPhone 8 plus one now in terms of the color temperature. The f-18 is indeed warmer, whereas the Samsung Galaxy S8 has a much cooler image, but the f-18 is sharper when it comes to this picture. So if you take a look at the clouds, if you zoom into the clouds, you can see how much sharper the f-18 is one compared to the Samsung, Galaxy S8 and same applies to the wood next to the boat. Dave 1/8 is again much, much sharper and also brighter.

So we have an F 1.7 aperture on the S 8 vs F 1.8 on the iPhone 8, and it's quite interesting. Seeing that the iPhone 8 is brighter than ESA same applies to the grid on the top, so it's sharper the iPhone 8 and also the chair in the boat. So if you take a look at chair, the colors are better on the iPhone 8 and the chair itself is sharper on the iPhone 8, then on a Samsung Galaxy S8. Also speaking of the colors, the color of the boat in real life was actually yellow and on the iPhone 8 we have this color kinda, where, as on the Samsung Galaxy S8, it's more of like an orange, so the boat in real life, it was definitely yellow. Now the second image is actually quite difficult to master.

So this is a pretty tricky shot, because we have a much darker area on the bottom and the trees and under trees, the shadow, and then we have the sky, which is really, really bright, and obviously we need a pretty good balance of both dark and bright areas. So in this photo we actually get to see how well the HDR mode works on both smartphones and interesting enough. This time the s8 is actually warmer, and I do personally, like the added vibrancy on ES 8, but then again the iPhone 8 is so, so much sharper. So if you take a look at the leaves they're much, much clearer on the iPhone 8 versus the Samsung Galaxy s 8 and then in terms of dynamic range, the clouds are also much more visible on the iPhone 8, but interesting enough. The s 8 has a much better color reproduction when it comes to when it comes to clouds, and especially if you take a look at it greens, there are much greener so to say than the wash of colors on the iPhone 8.

Now speaking of difficult photos, this third one is even more difficult to master so and this one, you have everything that you need. You have bright areas. You have dark areas, you have lots of colors, so it's very, very tricky for these smartphones to master, and I really like the way the s8 one looks. But when it comes to HDR, the iPhone 8 does retain more detail. Keep in mind that the iPhone 8 now does HDR automatically.

So you don't have to select it. So if you take a look at the trees on the right they're much more in focus, then on a Samsung Galaxy s, 8 and the sky is also more blueish on the iPhone 8 versus this grayish tone on yes, 8 and also, if you take a look at the clouds, they're much more blown out on the Samsung Galaxy s 8, so yeah I just think enough on the left. Yes, 8. The sounded focus on the Leafs, but the iPhone 8, on the other hand, is not in focus on the right and the essay is in focus on the right. So it seems that both phones have adjusted focus the focus on different region and in terms of the noise.

If you take a look at the shadows, there's a lot more noise on a Samsung Galaxy S8 when compared to your D iPhone 8. Now the next test is a couple of macro shots now, keep in mind that this was not taken with the zoom lens, there's a different test for that. So these are basically just really close-up shots. So in this first, one I actually preferred the way the Samsung Galaxy S8 one looks in terms of overall colors. But again, if you take a look at the sharpness, Devon 8 is so much sharper, especially if you take a look at the corners of the image.

So this is a bench if you take a look at everything: that's not in the center and so much sharper on the iPhone 8 versus the Samsung Galaxy SII. Now this is because the s8 comes with an F 1.7 aperture versus F 1.8 on the iPhone 8. So you get that slight bulky. They slight blurriness on the s 8, but if you think a look at only the center itself, the s8 is indeed much sharper in the center now. This is mostly because of that extra sharpening, that's going on in post-processing.

Next up, we have the second image. I really love this one I can pretty much use this as a wallpaper. So in this one I love how the s8 looks so, yes, it got all the colors right. The iPhone one looks better in terms of how artistic the picture is, but I think it processed HDR way too heavily on this one. So in this case the s8 looks much more realistic than the iPhone 8, but iPhone each one looks kind of cool now, moving on to the zoom shots.

Obviously the Samsung Galaxy S8 doesn't have a second camera module. Only the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 has that I just wanted to see how a zoomed in shot with the optical zoom on the iPhone 8 plus compares to the digital zoom on the Samsung Galaxy S8, and it's actually really, really good. So obviously they four eight ones is sharper because of that telephoto lens, but the Samsung Galaxy S8 is actually surprisingly good, considering that this is just digital zoom. Obviously this is just something interesting that I wanted to test out. So as a plus, when it comes to digital zoom, quite impressive I would say, especially because of that added sharpening.

Then, in post now, we've gone into a couple of shots, taking a low light with a back facing camera. So in this first am HD, Samsung Galaxy S8 looks so much better than the iPhone II, so we got a much sharper image and then also, if you take a look at the blue tones in the sky, the s8 is much more true to life and the s8 also retain a much more detail in the page. If you take a look at the pavement and then the same thing applies for the trees on the left, so the trees on the left are much sharper on the s8, whereas on the iPhone 8 for some reason, they're quite blurry. Now, when it comes to the actual noise, take a look at a building on the right, so on the building on the right. This is actually an exception.

The s8 actually lost quite a lot of detail, whereas you can still see a lot of detail on the iPhone on the iPhone 8, especially when it comes to you when it comes to the lines. But overall the s8 is definitely better when it comes to this first low-light photos moving on to the second low-light photo. We have this tree and in this one, the s8 overall, if you take a look at the image, the s8 looks better, but the iPhone 8 has a much, much better focus. So everything on the left-hand side of the image. Sorry on the right-hand side on yes, 8 is actually out of focus, which is a bit strange on the iPhone 8 plus.

Everything is perfectly in focus, so when it comes to focus and this image focuses, cells are so much better on the iPhone 8 plus moving on to the final low-light image. We have this one, so this one is actually a pretty good way to demonstrate low-light performance, because this image overall, is a pretty dark one. We only have the lights coming from the buildings in the front, which are also reflected in the water and when this one, the s8 is so, so much sharper than the iPhone 8 1, and also, if you take a look at a building on the left on the top in the blue area, you can see much more. Details have been retained on yes, 8 and same applies to the colors. There are much more vibrant on yes 8, whereas on the iPhone 8 they do feel a bit more washed out.

Also, if you take a look at the sky on the iPhone 8, there's a lot of noise, so low-light overall, the Samsung Galaxy S8- definitely wins this one, but what about low lights with using the flash? So in this first image you can definitely see that the Samsung Galaxy S8 used a flash on this one. So this is definitely a photo taken with a flash now on the iPhone 8. It actually looks quite interesting, so it's much darker definitely, but you can't really tell that it was taken with a flash, so it feels much more natural and also much sharper. So if you take a look at the zoomed in image, there's a massive difference in terms of clarity, it's so, so soft on s, 8 and also on the iPhone 8. If you take a look at the sky, there's almost no noise in the sky and same applies to the building.

It's so much sharper on the iPhone 8 versus the Samsung, Galaxy S8, so flash it seems that es8, the iPhone 8, is better. Now in the second image again, you can see how the s8 definitely feels, like you know, a photo taken with the flash, whereas on the f-18 it looks much more like a natural light. Also, if you take a look at the color they're, much more realistic and so much more true to life on the iPhone 8 versus the ones on the s8 and same applies to picture number three taken with a flash. So on the Samsung Galaxy S8, we do get more light, so the flash seems to be brighter. But overall we do have a much sharper image and a much more natural look with the iPhone eight shot.

So flash wise. The iPhone 8 is better than the Samsung galactic eight. But when it comes to low-light performance, it seems that a Samsung Galaxy s 8 it's better. Now, let's just take a look at some videos taken with the back facing camera, so in this one I just want to test out the dynamic range. So this is a pan 60 frames per second on the iPhone 8 and 30 frames per second on a Samsung Galaxy s 8.

Now a few things I want to point out, so the Samsung Galaxy S8 video is definitely sharper, but that's because of the post-processing sharpening, which I don't really like. This is a personal choice: I, don't really like sharpening, but BS 8 is definitely sharper. Now the s8 is also darker. If you can produce do so, you do lose quite a lot of detail in the trees. If you take a look at the trees and the s8 is also more vibrant, so the iPhone 8 colors are a bit more washed out, but they are more true to life than yes, eight ones.

Now, if you take a closer look at a sky, there's much more detail on the s8, but the tones are actually better on the iPhone 8, so sky wise, the s8 looks closer to how it actually looked in real life, and then I also have a quick video in which I want to show you the difference between 60 frames per second and 30 frames per second, and also the camera rolling shutter. So also you can tell the difference, hopefully, you're watching this video and 60 frames per second seems like there's. This jelly-like effect on yes, 8 caused by the stabilization so seems that this is inertia based stabilization day for night also has a gel effect, but it's significantly, it's significantly worse, me escape than the iPhone 8. Now, if you take a look at just the water, the s 8 is sharper than the iPhone 8 water. When there's a lot of movement, but that's again because of the addition opening now taking a look at some video stabilization and 4k.

As you can see, the s8 is more stable than the iPhone 8, which is quite surprising. I wasn't expecting this. Now. This is most likely because the iPhone 8 this is a 48 60. Video and F only doesn't support cinematic stabilization of software stabilization on 4k 60 videos, also on the iPhone II plus.

We have this jelly-like effect, but it's actually even worse on a Samsung Galaxy s 8. So we have lots of warping and again inertia based stabilization, but overall I would pick the Samsung Galaxy S8 when it comes to how stable this shelf looked for now, let's do a stabilization in 1080p, which does support cinematic stabilization on the iPhone 8 as well, and just taking a look at the video quality alone, it's so, so much sharper on the iPhone 8. Yes, it looks like 720p upscale to be honest in case you're, wondering both of them actually have the same bit rate at around 18 megabits per second. Definitely it has a lot of flickers, so lots of shakiness was still much better than the 4k stabilization, but still not as good as the s8 one, which is very, very smooth in this case. Moving on to an autofocusing speed test, the iPhone 8 is actually quite fast, so it takes about one second or even less, to switch from a closed subject to a pretty far away subject now the s8 is way way way faster than the iPhone 8 and comes with dual pixel technology and in Kate, which was an autofocus.

Yes, the s8 wins this one by mile now moving on to slow-motion, so here's our slow-motion yes, it can do 720p up to 40 frames per second, and the iPhone 8 plus can do 1080p at 240 frames per second, so the Samsung Galaxy S8, as you can see, it's actually sharper. If you take a look at the left hand, side now on the iPhone 8 is much sharper. If you take a look at the rocks, so it's quite interesting but honestly quality wise I was expecting more from the iPhone 8 I mean they both look really, really bad. So this actually looks like 1080p upskilled from your know, 720p, so 720p app scripts NEP to be honest, but overall I do feel like the s8 is a bit sharper. That post-processing sharpness definitely helps a lot in this case now, moving on to low-light video, so the iPhone 8.

This is a 4k at 30 frames per second shot by the way. So the 4k 60 is much, much darker, obviously so 4k 30 on both and if you take a look at the first frame, only the iPhone 8 is so, so much sharper than Samsung Galaxy S8. So if you take a look at the ground, if you take a look at rails on the left and also the building in the front but interesting enough, once you actually start playing the video, the s8 is so much sharper. Also, the s8 has a much warmer tone to the video we're safe on eight plus has a much cooler, tint so playing the video. You can see that on the right on offense, the iPhone 8 does have a lot more noise, so low-light video I would say that the s8 wins in this one as well, okay.

So what about a front-facing camera? So this is a photo that I took same photo on both. You have to take a look at a couple of things here. So first off take a look at this college. Take a look at the sharpness and the color of these images, so color wise, the iPhone 8 is definitely better. We get much more vibrant greens.

We also get a much more realistic skin tones, then on yes, 8 and then also, if you take a look at my shirt, this one was perfectly black but the s8, the s8 one kind of looks some sort of like a blue, so definitely a cooler tint, then a much warmer tint on the iPhone 8. But if you take a look at sharpness alone, the s8 is so so so much sharper. If you take a look at my face and my eyebrows and so on, then the iPhone 8, and that's because the Samsung Galaxy S8 actually has autofocus on the front facing camera, whereas the iPhone 8 does it ok. So this is a front facing camera comparison of the s8 plus vs. gay phone, eight plus.

So if you take a look at the viewing angle, it's almost the same I think the SI plus is a tiny bit wider, but just take a look at the colors behind me by the way. This is the audio coming from the iPhone 8 plus and now this is the audio coming from the is plus. So take a look at the highlights. Take a look at the greens they're much more in focus and by the way the is plus also has autofocus on a front-facing camera. So if I just move my head, you can see that it tries to find focus, and it focused on the leaves and the bushes behind me now, if I'm back in focus, it focuses back on my face yeah, if any plus doesn't have all the focus on the front-facing camera.

Let me know the comments which one do you think looks better, and I definitely think it's yet. Yes, a plus one. By the way, its quad is your video on the sh+ versus 1080p 30, moving on to some low-light shots taking with a front-facing camera. So in this one you can see that es8 is significantly brighter the iPhone 8. So that's because it comes with a much larger aperture, so we have F 1.7, vs, f, 2.2 and a front-facing camera. And if you take a look at my hair, it's so much more visible on the s 8, so sharpness, wise, yes, 8 is better, but the iPhone does retain more detail when it comes to my face when it comes to shadows.

So if you take a look at the shadows, if you take a look at a fence behind me, it does look much sharper on the iPhone 8. Now a front-facing camera test in low-light, taken with a flash. So here the same thing Alex has said- does have a broader flash similar to the back facing one. So it's much brighter, but you can definitely tell that this image was taken with the flash, whereas on the iPhone 8, it's more of like a more natural light. Now, I still think that the s 8 the sharper and overall it is a better in much sharper image and low-light than the iPhone 8 is.

So if you prefer the s 8 1 again on this one, then yeah 8, wonder comments which one do you guys prefer ok. So this is a front-facing camera test of the iPhone 8 plus and the Samsung Galaxy S, II Plus. So there's something else you see the plus has an F 1.7 temperature versus F 2.2 on the iPhone 8 plus so on megapixels versus 8 megapixels on yes, a plus. So let me go to comments if you think one of them looks better I think the S 8 plus does quite a lot more noise reduction from what I can tell from the phones and the iPhone 8 plus is a lot noisier, but yeah. Let me know which one you prefer I think you have a lot more detail, a bit more detail in the iPhone 8 plus.

Maybe that's just me next up, let's take a look at some panorama, shots and see if we have any differences here so resolution wise gave on eight is about 29 megapixels and the Samsung Galaxy S8 is about 26 megapixels. So about the same now the iPhone 8 does have a better image when it comes to dynamic range and if you take a look at the details and the overall color and the color reproduction, it's much better on the iPhone 8 versus the Samsung Galaxy S8, but the s8 actually has a much better stitching. So, for example, if you take a look at the top of the hotel building, the f-18 actually messed that up quite a bit and then, if you take a look at the clouds, you can also see that again and on the bottom platform as well. Also. Another reason why the s8 is better when it comes to panorama, shots and the iPhone 8 is because you know you can see these ducks so yeah.

The s8 just joking, obviously now moving on to a couple of times lapses. Honestly both of these are horrible, so they look awful. So both of these are 1080p, which is quite disappointing. I was expecting to see 4k panoramas, sorry 4k time lapses on the iPhone 8, but they're still 1080p and interesting enough. I've actually recorded five minutes of time-lapse on both so 21 seconds is the total length on the iPhone 8 versus six seconds on a Samsung Galaxy s 8 on auto mode.

Now the Samsung Galaxy S8 also slowed down the time-lapse when a subject stepped in front of the camera, which is pretty interesting again, auto mode on the s8 and when it goes to the nitrate, we have a 32 megabits per second nitrate on the iPhone 8 verses, 17, OS 8, so almost double the nitrate on the iPhone 8. Now, if you take a look at the image in general, the iPhone 8 does have a brighter image, so the essay does have a more vibrant image. Overall, it's more contrast, II, but it did crush the blacks quite a lot so in this sharper. If you take a look at the sharpening on the pavement at least the sharper, but if you take a look at the buildings in the background, there is so much sharper on the iPhone 8, then the Samsung Galaxy S8, so overall time-lapse wise gave on 8 that one takes this one now I want to mention a few things when it comes to the 4k, video recording, nitrate and also the recording space. So the f-18 and 60 frames per second has a bit rate of 106 megabits per second, which is pretty high.

Nowadays, a plus in 4k 30 has 48 megabits per second in the echo on 8 plus in 40.30 has around 50 megabits per second around the same nitrate, if you record in 4k 30 and obviously double that if you double the frame rate to 60 frames per second now when it comes to the actual space, 1 minute or 4k. Video at 30 frames per second takes 170 megabits per second and HTV C encoding on the iPhone 8 and the same video takes about 350 megabits per second on both the s 8 and the iPhone 8. If you use h.264 encoding, so the f-18 is twice more efficient storage. Obviously, if you use the H ETC encoding, which not a lot of devices support at the moment, but they for Nate's still more efficient, okay. So what's the conclusion at all this, which one has a better camera? Well, in the end, they both have some really great cameras and both actually have a few.

You know up send a few downs. So if you care about videos, for example, go with the iPhone 8 definitely go with the iPhone 8. You also get you know better some motion, you also get 4k 60, but if you care about low light, then the Samsung Galaxy S8 seems to still be the king and also, if you care about front-facing camera shots even in low-light, then yes, eight is also the winner here. But if you care about low-light shots with the flash, the iPhone 8 has a much better flash and when it comes to everyday shots, Devon 8 is going to be better with a higher dynamic range, a much better color reproduction, and it also preserves a lot more the detail. So let me know the comments which one of these two, which shots did you actually prefer, which one do you guys think is better for your needs, shall we say and all subscribe to my channel if you want to see more extremely in-depth videos like this one also check out.

If you have enjoyed this video, you might enjoy my ultimate speeder series and which I test out the performance in a pretty similar fashion. I've done one with the iPhone 8 plus versus the Samsung Galaxy S8 plus yesterday, and gave on a plus vs. gave on 7 plus in case you're curious on how that goes also be sure to notifications in my channel by simply tapping on that Bell icon, so that you're notified whenever a new epic video comes out. They have a lot of cool stuff coming soon on the iPhone 8, so definitely stay tuned for that, and also if you enjoyed this video feel free to like. Let me know this.

Video was really really really difficult to make, so every feedback is really appreciated and yeah. This has been pretty much it. So, thank you for watching I'm, Daniel and yeah see you guys in my next one. It's an effect Samuel.
