Pixel 4 XL vs iPhone 11 Camera Comparison By Daniel Sin

Pixel for Excel versus the iPhone 11, so this video is basically going to be like a scenario but for video I want to bet the iPhone is going to win because we didn't hear any updates about the pic so for now, I'm on top of a rooftop right now with the city behind me. So there's barely any lights up here. So this is kind of extreme example of the low-light front-facing camera starting off with the portrait mode. The pixel is something I would prefer just because if you are a photographer you're so used to getting that compressed background which knocks off a lot of information on iPhone there's so much more. That kind of distracts from being a portrait picture on the pixel I can grab a good upper half body, whereas on an iPhone I can almost capture the whole body and if I want to walk closer to match that shot, things starts to look more distorted, especially if you're taking a picture of a person. So that's a con for not having a telephoto lens on these phones, because when you walk up super close and take a portrait picture, the face starts to get thinner or distorted or longer.

So the portrait picture on the iPhone starts to look a bit weird. If you do more close-up shots in terms of just taking portrait mode, pictures on objects and things, I would also gotta go with the pixel as well, just because the whole experience is so much better because I can just type wherever I want to take the picture, and it comes off sharp with the boy a background on an iPhone now I have to play around with my distance, because it tells me that the objects too far or too close and after wait until the background is blurry and I can see the portrait effect. That's when I know, I can take a portrait picture, so I can take portrait mode pictures on a pixel faster than the iPhone now in terms of just everyday use of the ultra-wide versus the telephoto. For me, I would go put that with your wife, because when I'm walking around the city, I can get more epic shot, get more of the environment and I barely use the telephoto lens unless I have to, and if I zoom in to the 2x on iPhone that matches on a pixel, the quality looks so similar. I can't tell which one is better when I start to see the difference.

That's when I'm indoors or in lower light situations, and of course, if I zoom in all the way in with the pixel on the 8x versus the iPhone, which is 5x, the picture quality on a pixel comes out better for HDR I. Think the quality on iPhone is a bit better, because I feel like the post-processing on the pixel. It kind of brings up all the shadows to the point where I can see more visible noise. The pixel also has this dual exposure mode, which I do like using because it's faster to control, exactly just the highlights or just the shadows, whereas on an iPhone I would have to tap around to get my perfect exposure, and then I can actually move up and down to the little Sun icon to pretty much control the exposure, which is kind of the same thing. But it's not separated into highlights and shadows I'm.

Moving on to your low-light for iPhone how it kind of stay away from the ultra wide-angle unless you're in a city with a bunch of lights, then that will look pretty decent during this nighttime shot. I have to say the white balance is inconsistent in both phones, because sometimes the white box is better on the iPhone, and sometimes it's better on the pixel. Now, when you're in New York, where there's a lot of places where there are tiny spots or just big statues, the ultra wide-angle is so much more useful to have. But then again, I would stick with the main camera to get the best quality image. Now, moving on to my night mode experience, I do like the iPhone much better, just because it for one it does it for you automatically, and it's not a separate page or mode to get to its nice on the pixel of that it does suggest you to take a night mode picture and then, when you press on that, it goes straight to your night mode.

Now, comparing the two I would say the biggest advantage on a pixel is that you can actually do night mode on the front-facing camera. So if you do selfies, and it's too dark, definitely night mode does help, whereas on iPhone it doesn't really offer that at all both of them do look perfect in terms of the difference between regular and night mode, but I have to, say the iPhone looks a little just a little more natural because on a darker spot, it's actually dark, like actual shadows, whereas on that on the pixel, it feels like it's trying to bring up those shadows, and you can see more noise now. Moving on to video in 4k 30, their stabilization looks really similar. I can't really tell which one is better. The difference here is that the field of view on iPhone is much wider, whereas on a pixel, it's a bit more zoomed in and in this clip I feel like the white balance is better on a pixel, whereas on iPhone is a bit greenish yellow.

Now the iPhone has 4k 60, which is a huge winner in my books for video, because if you want to do cinematic stuff or just want to slow down your clip, you can actually do that with the iPhone and plus it's also stabilized in 4k 60, which I don't know a lot of phones that has that now, moving on to nighttime I would say, the pixel has a bit more micro jitters. Every time you do a hard step, so I would say the iPhone does have a slight advantage in nighttime video and also in this clip, the pixel seems to have that better white balance, because the lights look like they're white versus the greenish hue on iPhone same with the pictures, I wouldn't recommend ultra-wide mode in nighttime as well. For video, it's cool that you can see more of the stuff like all the whole building, but the quality I can seem more noise, and it's just not as good. So that's the biggest trade-off. I also tried the 2x on pixel and zoom in on the iPhone, and surprisingly I like the iPhone video much better in terms of the quality I, see less noise on an iPhone and the contrast, look is just better and of course, I see less micro.

Jitters I feel like the pixel is a great phone or better in terms of just portrait. Photography, if you like that compress background that 85 millimeter look or whatever the pixel has more of that look than the iPhone. But if you like capturing everything, and once you see everything, then iPhones wide-angle does a good job as well. I would just avoid in really dark situations and, of course the iPhone does have better video, so, and I think it depends on what you like you shoot in how you want to shoot the pictures, so both of these phones are perfect camera phones.
