Samsung Galaxy S20 vs Pixel 4a / Simple Comparison By Daniel Sin

How's it going guys so for the next 4a comparisons. I will be comparing it up to fashion phones and for the first one it ends up being the Samsung Galaxy s20. Now a lot of my friends ask me what android phones to get, and usually my first answer is gonna, be got the Samsung phones or get the pixel phones, and both of these android phones are kind of like the opposite ends. So I'll. Let you know what that means by the end of the video and for these talking headshots, I will be recording it through. My rode wireless go so during the camera section.

That's when I'll be comparing the two microphones on the phone now moving on to hardware. The quality on the Samsung is gonna, be much better. It's glass versus plastic, so there's no competition there. Now they both have that minimal, looking design. But for me, I do prefer the matte finish on the pixel just because of the smoothness and the fewer fingerprints.

Now for the button layout, I do prefer the Samsung Galaxy s20, just because the power button is lower, and it's easier to reach now in terms of size. I do find that the shorter Pixel 4a is more comfortable to use. I do notice that I'm I do reach less on top of the screen, so for one handed operation or the ease of one hand operation, the 4a is going to be the better choice as far as getting into the phone. Furthermore, I do prefer the Pixel 4a fingerprint scanner, just because of the better location and, of course, the responsiveness. The on-screen fingerprint sensor on s20 is not bad.

Just make sure that your fingers are not dry using it, because you're going to have a tough time. If it is now, the s20 does have faced unlock, which is the main way. How I get into this phone, but days like these or times like these. It's not as convenient, and the last thing to mention here is that the Pixel 4a does have a headphone jack for the ones that still uses it now. Moving on to performance is obvious that the Samsung Galaxy s20 is going to be the winner here, since it does have the stronger chip.

Now I am a casual user, so throughout my everyday use I don't feel any performance difference between the two so doing everyday things like going on Instagram watching YouTube videos or even reading a couple articles. They both feel the same now. If I put them right next to each other side by side, then of course, you're going to see the Samsung Galaxy s20 loading up the apps faster. So the whole point here is that if you know you don't need the extra power or processing, then don't spend extra money on it, because the money that you saved, you can buy some extra cases, a battery pack or even wireless earbuds. Now for battery life.

The s20 will last longer here because it does have the bigger battery, but both phones are pretty power efficient. I would say that these phones can last me throughout a day and a half, but if you do want the longer lasting phone, then the s20 is the better choice and of course, if you guys are gaming on these phones, then these phones will not last you. Throughout the day you would have to charge them during the night or at some point also. The s20 does have wireless charging and reverse wireless charging. So if you do need those flagship features, then you're going to have to pay more and for software.

If you want something more simple, then go for pixel. If you want more customizations and options and personalization then go for Samsung, so there really isn't any winners on this side, it's more like personal preference. So for me, I'm going to lean towards the pixel, because I use Google everything I don't have any bloatware or any unnecessary apps. I don't really need so. The whole experience is just more simple and cleaner on the pixel side.

So this is the audio test of the Samsung Galaxy s20 and Pixel 3a for the cameras. They both have one camera on the front and for the back cameras, Samsung has three and the Pixel 4a only has one. So it's pretty obvious that the Samsung Galaxy s20 is gonna, be more flexible in a lot of situations, but let's see how the single camera on the 4a can stack up against the three on the s20. So for 4k video you can shoot an ultra-wide angle lens on s20, and it does have a perfect stabilization. Now the HDR isn't the best, but it does get that good nice epic shot when we switch over to the main camera lens on s20.

The stabilization isn't going to be as good as the ultra-wide, but the HDR seems to be better on the x20, and you can easily see in the shadows. Everything is pretty even and exposed now. This is 8k on s20 and 4k on 4a, and it's not the biggest difference on screen, but I want to let you know that there are a lot more modes on s20. You can shoot in 4k 60, there's ultra stabilization, so you do get a lot of camera features versus the 4a. If you do buy the s20 now for low light, the quality seems to be very close to each other.

I would say the s20 seems to have a much warmer color temperature, and it can handle better with the exposure. As you can tell looking inside, the stores is not as bright, or you can actually see inside better than the 4a now for portrait mode, it's much easier to use on the 4a just because on s20 you would have to wait or move around until they recognize the object. If you're pointing the camera at a human or anything like a simple shape, then it will work very quickly. So one of my biggest gripes on the 4a's portrait mode is how zoomed in it is, and it doesn't have an option like the s20 to zoom out. So if you want to take a portrait mode picture of something in your hands or if you're in a tight space, and you need more room, then the s20 is going to be more versatile.

You can zoom in on a 4a as well, but I noticed that if you zoom in too much, the quality of the picture is not going to be too good for the front facing camera. The s20 needs to see a face, so it doesn't work with my mask on. They both take really similar pictures, and the only difference I can see is the colors. The s20 seems to have a bit more contrast. That makes me stand out a little more from the background on the s20.

You can also zoom out a bit more if you need more room or taking a picture with your friend and if you do have shaky hands, especially if you're taking photos at night. The 4a is going to capture the clever picture for everyday situations. The ultra-wide angle lens is by far my favorite on any phone out there, since it is the widest and the s20 does have a telephoto lens, so zooming in the pictures will be more clear, and you can go up to 30x shifting lenses from the ultra-wide to wide to telephoto. You do notice the color inconsistency on s20, so that is mainly a common issue on phones with multiple cameras, but the colors are more saturated or more contrasting and punchier. So if you do like that, look, then s20 is the way to go now in terms of low light.

If you're in a city where there's a lot of city lights, then they both will do perfect in terms of zooming in that's when you start to see a decrease in quality, but I think the winner is still going to be the s20, since it does have a dedicated telephoto lens, and the software on a Google Pixel does a perfect job cleaning things up in terms of night mode. I would say they both work really well. For me, I feel, like the s20 seems to be a bit more natural looking and whereas on a 4a, it just seems to be really boosted up with brightness. So, as I mentioned in the beginning of the video, I said that these phones are like the opposite ends, so what that means is the Samsung phones are basically for heavy smartphone users, whereas the pixel phones are more towards the casual users. So, basically, if you want or need all those extra features like the wireless charging, reverse wireless charging, extra cameras or even extra camera modes, then pick the Samsung Galaxy s20 when you're picking the Samsung Galaxy s20.

It basically means that you're getting all the features, and you're not really missing out now pick the 4a, if you're, just a basic casual phone user that don't really need much of a phone you're just going to be on Instagram, go on some YouTube videos and that's pretty much it. You don't need the power, so go cheaper, save a bunch of money, it's a simple and basic phone that just works. So that's my comparison between these two phones. Let me know what you guys think or which one is better off for you. If you found this video helpful, please give a like subscribe if you haven't yet thanks for watching, and I'll see you guys later.
