#iPhone15ProMax #S24Ultra - บันเทิง
* I said s24u has a 10x camera but no I don’t mean a dedicated physical 10x camera. It’s using the high res 5x camera to crop in. I say this later in the video but nobody watches that far 😂
The s24u randomly overexposes, havent used raw yet but it also happens in jpg.
The whitebalance is better on the iphone, s24 nearly always too cool.
No updates yet.
Pleasure to watch a good potographers comparison. Both phones amazing.
How is a crop in different than a digital zoom in? Neither is true 10x, so I'm not sure why even say 10x is offered. I guess you could argue S24U has an equivalent 10x at a reduced MP count, but it seems no different than the iPhone zooming in in that case.
@@Rhinotsoplots1000 its a digital crop. Nothing to see here. Calling it a camera was a mistake.
Thank you for this comparison! I watch all the flagship comparisons every year and i respect your opinion a lot! Keep up the good work and dont stop posting videos!!
I was so close to buying the iPhone 15 pro max only because it has cleaner interface, great performance and better camera but then I realized that s24 ultra has them except a bad camera and color profile. However, the reason I went with S24 Ultra instead of iPhone 15 pro max is because I literally edit all of my photos first before I upload them. If you're more of a casual user then go with iPhone. I personally love S24 Ultra because it has a little bit more functionality.
I love my 15pm
S24 is a great phone hindered by a bad software
android is inferior, apps quality is a meh compared to iOS
What a shame
@@Ahmed-ku9yh I agree
@garthfielding9143 to each their own, and I'm glad that you're happy with your choice!
iPhone RAW file?
Your camera comparisons are top tier! And you know what you're talking about... Your shots are just pleasing with both phones, which goes to show you can't really go wrong with any of these phones. It's just about you, the shooter!... Loving my s24 ultra so much
❤ Yes, I was waiting for this video!
Woot woot
S24 at all photos the best…….but what about the video…
Hi Lee.. Do you know why S24 Ultra especially in 200MP mode have a Greenish Tint. Is it because of poor post-processing or the hardware limitation?
How to eliminate those greenish tints at shadow area?
have you tried playing with the profile slider at the top, just below "Apple ProRaw" / "Samsung Expert RAW"? that slider seems to adjust tone mapping, so maybe that'll fix the Samsung skin tone issue you were talking about?
Love this video ❤
In my opinion, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra stands out for its exceptional cleanliness and stunning color reproduction. While the iPhone offers well-balanced shadow reproduction, my comprehensive evaluation leads me to favor the S24 Ultra as the superior overall smartphone.
both are so so good .. Lest we forget, the iPhone has been updated several times and improved .. As for Samsung, it did not receive any improvements and feedback yet
Lmao here we go with the usual 'WAIT FOR SAMSUNG SOFTWARE UPDATES OMG ITS GONNA BE AWSUUUM' same goes for iPhone users when their new flagship gets reviewed LOL.
@@n3hp5 but tbh it does improve the performance a lot, so why not lol.
@@n3hp5yet most of the reviews has the S24U as the clear winner in most categories
Here comes the Samsung fanboy: WAIT FOR A FREAKING UPDATE AND SEE IT WILL BLOW OUT THE IPHONE
Whereas my s23 ultra is still the same from beginning. It just reduced the saturation thats it. Nothing changed on my Samsung even. I assume apple barely updates their phones but still perform better than Samsung out of box. Going for the iPhone 16 after 11 years of Samsung
They are both great in different ways, i gave A 16 points and B 19 points, can't go wrong with either of these
Hi is it possible to copy a big amount of fotos/ videos ( I’m talking about 10.000 or more) with the usb-c cable to the computer (windows) without having to use iCloud?
Yes, Plugging your phone, into a Pc, using the USB chord essentially turns your phone into a Stand Alone, USB Hard Drive or memory stick. Just insure you have enough phone battery to last throughout the entire transfer Process. Also, while on the subject of images, check your phone setting to insure y ou are getting teh veyr best image, possible, every time you take a picture, Always shoot RAW. While this will take much more memory, it will also give you the best possible base, form which, to edit your pictures. There is a reason hy stand-alone, expensive DSLR's have the RAW capability.
i have them both, and it seems like the 15pm have the better and consistance colors. the s24 sometimes makes AMAZING photos but its not consistance,and when im taking photos on food in a plate it blurs the edges, the iphone focus is so much better
Honestly, either would be great depending on which ecosystem you prefer or are married to. Neither beats a good full frame 35 mm mirrorless with a quality lens attached.
100% real camera for proper stuff and a phone for quick snaps when you need it.
the right side's output is like Leica and left side's is like Nicon. Both good but i will take the right side-the one like leica- thank you (which i think is 24ultra?)
I agree “they’re just phones they owe you nothing 🎉”
iphone for human portraits is AMAZING !!!
Nice video as wlays, could you please do something like this with the pixel 8 pro as well?
Not covering any pixel stuff this year. Google didn’t like my constructive criticism on the pixel 7 pro. And cut me from getting review units. I’m not personally gonna buy one and I don’t really want to make content on a company that can’t take constructive criticism to improve their product. But if someone wants to send me one I can make some videos on it.
@@LeeZavitzHello Lee. Could you please let me know honestly for photos images and video quality which phone do you prefer more ? S24 ultra or iPhone 15 pro max? I will really appreciate your opinion:)
Unfortunately really strong noise reduction and oversharpening is baked into the files, so for me with iPhone clean RAW from a third party app (Lightroom, Halide) always wins in daylight. Then use AI denoise function in LR and you will see beautiful results...Anyway, your test - main camera A was clearly better. Consistent colors, WB and oversharpened HDR "look" was not as obvious as with Samsung. However, Samsung really surprised me with their night mode.
I preferred the iPhone shot almost every time before you revealed which it was. On thing I noticed when you were showing the raw shot of the crane, the Samsung has weird HDR cutouts around the crane and cables where the iPhone is much cleaner. It’s like it’s highlighted around thin lines.
RAW is currently broken on the S24 Ultra, the images are being processed like a jpeg. It's annoying because as of now shooting in RAW in the native camera app is not practical. Thankfully Samsung seems to be aware of the issue.
The portrait on the A device is just top notch
@LeeZavitz, You should test the VIVO X100 pro, it takes the best portrait shots.
I honestly thought that A were the photos from the S24 ultra because of the white balance, colors and sometimes less details. Very impressive Samsung with the S24 ultra.
1 - Always disable Scene Optimizer on Galaxy
2 - To have real Raw with Galaxy, never use the Expert Raw mode, but the standard Raw mode
🙏🏽
But Expert Raw mode has more options to use but take worse images. I don't get it. The phone always processing the raw image.
Nice details sir
Thanks for watching
Do you think the S24 Ultra is still oversharpening its photos?Im thinking of getting it or the S23 Ultra or the s24 Ultra.I still think in the back of my mind i should get the Iphone though.....
the question is, why don't you use one of them to record your youtube videos? wouldn't it look better?
You think it would help make my videos look better? Maybe I should.
Hello guys I need some assistance. I am looking to purchase a Samsung s24 ultra or an iPhone 15 pro for product photography and video. Which one do you recommend?
If you are doing a lot of video the iPhone is so much better. When it comes to photos both are great
Thanks for your candid counsel.
still waiting for you to test a 1 inch sensor phone 🙏
i prefer 65-70% photos from B
but photo A portrait looks more sharper nd detailed and maintained highlights better more often.B is often more vibrant and has better color and contrast,sometimes they look soo identical that i cant differentiate
The best of both worlds, the only thing left to do is find out which one is yours.
Many of youtubers defend their iphone that it gave accurate and consistent white balance. Then why my ip13 white balance sucks and the color is muddy?
Is it because it only the base model? Please help
TH-camrs get paid to promote, you don't
That's why.
Which iPhone is the one on the left or the one on the right?
Left
Make a video comparison between xiaomi 14 ultra vs dslr human photography
I'm a samsung fan
But this year, I'm going with the iPhone 15 Pro max
Good job Apple 👌
Does S24 have ProRes + Log? Or something equivalent? Please help me. I find the galaxy's footage too oversharpened, much artefacts, digital shit and when we see the ProRes Log footage from iphones, they look like a real camera.
I heard there’s some 3rd party video apps for Samsung that let you shoot prores. But if we are talking straight out of the phone native camera app. the iPhone destroys it. Apple log is no joke. This is the first year I have decided to shoot more of my TH-cam videos with the iPhone or mix it in with my pro camera stuff because you can grade it to match and it looks amazing
Ye, thats kind a lame for samsung. thank you @@LeeZavitz
Galaxy has high bitrate video
what i mean, is no digitalized codec that looks more professional than the usual stuff like ProRes on apple. @@b.redouane
please can you compare S24 ultra ( with GCam app) VS iPhone 15 pro max
S24 ultra vs dslr portrait video please 😊❤
Great video, I think 200mp allows for a lot of information for better information processing
Wow! Great conparison. In blind test most photos I prefered were B. So samsung. Thats great ordered one. But never did blind test.
Vendo esse review concluo que o S24 Ultra tem muito o que ainda melhorar com atualizações via software. Tem problema de color profile e as vezes se perde, mas é visível que tem mais capacidade que o iPhone. Questão de tempo para ser dominante na maioria das situações.
both are too similar ❤
Could tell which photos came from iPhone from the start. iPhone photos are definitely the pro photographers choice. I could tell right away iPhone photos would be better once Lightroom got a hold of them.
I totally agree with you. iPhone all the way for me.
Even in some situations iphone perform the worst
@@praveen6862 iPhone is just more consistent. Samsung photos have so many issues from color to poor exposure.
The iPhone photos were too cold imo.
@@carver9312 I recommend you visit an ophthalmologist immediately. The iPhone photos were 100% warmer. Even in the thumbnail you see the girls skin tone is warmer and more accurate/pleasing.
Turn off scene optimizer, I know it's on by default and you wanna do these tests "all auto," but the majority of my peers with Galaxy S always turn off scene optimizer. Heck, I'd even say the majority of users do, so yeah, turn that off whenever you run these sort of test
anyway you can do iphone 12 pro vs 15 pro. pro raw. main cameras mostly and do side by side editing to see how much difference there really is. i think this would be super dope.
I dislike the "deep blue" sky on the s24u photos, or on most samsung phones.
But I love the non round corners of the s24u! I don`t understand the weird rounded screens of iPhones and most android phones...
(s24u, redmagic phones and sony xperia phones have "tv-like screens" with no rounded corners.)
I think RAW is messed up on the S24 Ultra. It is being processed like its a jpeg. It was never like this in previous phones. It seems like a bug, not a feature. RAW photos on the native camera app is broken IMO, and this is coming from someone who owns the S24 Ultra.
_Apples, computational, deep fusion, technology is going to work with those photos that’s why they look so good. Having more exposure to detail is better than sharpness_
I actually didn't see any dramatical differencs. But Samsung have to word with HDR, portrait mode and video hdr still yet
I alwas insert my personal biases but this i'm confused
I think expert raw has a bug, try shooting with the pro mode instead of expert raw until they fix it
If I only shows the raw in pro mode the Samsungs files would have less dynamic range and more noise. In perfect light the pro mode raw looks great and more organic like a real camera though. Same with iPhone when you use 3rd party app that lets you shoot raw off the sensor
Iphone is better in portrait photos.
Please do vivo x100 pro.
Thanks for the video. It seems that anything more subjective is problematic on the Samsung. When engineers decide things that have to do with aesthetics, it almost always goes wrong.
As a photographer I perfered A in most of the shots. As I understand it was the iphone? What a shame since I hate the ios and extreme cutout in the screen. What a shame they added more sharpening on iphone recently. The iphone looks more natural, samsung looks like a phone camera, to overdone with processing.
Samsung pictures look totally different if tou chose 12mp or 50/200.
I think A is too warm in most daylight shots
They all look exactly alike. Only difference is color temp. They both look like photos taken on a 1" sensor though.
@bohusbogdan They sure need to finetune the colours and white balance. Faces are often way to much yellow/red. They probably this this so the beach/sunset pictures look good. Hopfully they change this with ip16. Just like Samsung lowered the oversharpening this year apple fixing this and people going to say its a big upgrade.
@aboynamedjamil No it's not they differ quite big with shadows/highlights, contrast and so on.
There’s options to soften your photos at different levels to counteract the over sharpening in the stock auto mode. For image processing it’s called “intelligent optimization” which is set to maximum by default, you can lower to medium or minimum. Then, under the “camera assistant” there’s an option called “picture softening”. This is off by default. You can set it to medium or high to reduce the over sharpening.
My girlfriend and I did the comparison and both agreed that the iPhone did better by far, as we found it to be more precise with the colors throughout the comparison and really enjoyed the portrait mode, and both thought that S24 Ultra was sharpening too much (Almost like AI took over and added white lines on some photos).
As much we both are long-time Android users - I am looking for a new phone (S21+ broke over a little week ago), I am in the market for a phone that can take great photos and use it for other fun stuff like playing games once in awhile. Based on this comparison, I think I might go with iPhone and give it a spin, as I have been tired of my own phone picture quality, even back then.
But I am curious: Do you also think the sharpening on the S24 Ultra photos were too much?
I agree with the sharpening. But either phone will produce awesome images. I prefer the look of the iPhone especially for video. But outside of that, can’t go wrong with either
Great video and honest comparisons. Wanna see comparisons of this phones based on usage , functionality and capabilities. The fact that i couldn't tell which pictures comes from which phone it keep flipping depending on environment makes me believe that iPhone is going to dust . Cos camera ,video ,battery and animation smothnes was the only category they are holding but samsung close it all and passed in few . Its time iPhone start adding more functionality to their just to catch up with samsung. Samsung is still better phone all round. And 90 % of users dosent edit the photos before posting which make the old format of samsung pictures (saturated and colour boosting) more pleasing to the public. 9% will be happy with pro video and pictures. Only 1% is interested in expert raw and pro res or log. Which all already has over 5k professional cameras which for editing phone camera cant beat them. Only look better if not going to edit them . Versatility and productivity wise iphone is like 4th generations phone to samsung as note 20 ultra still has more useful features and comparable cameras to the 15 pro max .
If this doesn’t prove to everyone that it no longer matters what phone camera you go with, then nothing will.
Unfortunately people like fighting.
Even if Samsung wins by 1 point or vise versa, fanboys will argue theirs is better.
In the real world, outside the internet, nobody cares.
The reason the RAW files from S24 Ultra looks weird is because you used the Expert RAW app & not the "Pro Mode" on the actual camera app.
Expert RAW app does some processing to the RAW file which is horrendous. Terrible processing, and defeats the purpose of shooting RAW in my opinion. Samsung needs to fix it with an update because it's adding tons of sharpening also, as well as an overly processed look. It's funny because Expert RAW app givesvyou 16bit RAW files compared to 12bit on stock camera app.
You're not actually getting proper RAW, untouched files from Expert RAW.
You need to use "Pro" mode instead.
Although not a fan of iPhones, gotta admit that portrait RAW file looks nice & full of depth even before editing.
I chose A in every photo except the 10x ones.
15 pro max is looove 🥰
Colors are always worse on samsung, also you can notice less detail in the shadows, and for some reason, there's smearing and oversharpening on the walking shot.. even in raw.. I absolutely do not understand the hype. The only photo that's objectively better with samsung is the lock.
I don't know why people use Expert RAW instead of Pro Mode. You get way more details in Pro.
Expert raw is computational. Pro mode is just raw off the sensor so you get way less dynamic range and more noise. But outside of that you get way more detail cuz the phone isn’t trying to process out the noise. Not great for lowlight but looks great in good light
I got it wrong completely, I overall prefered B much more and thought it was iPhone, but I'm glad it was the Ultra all along since I use samsung's ecosystem!
for my own preferences, the iphone got 11 points and the samsung got 12. I was thinking that the samsung was way better, but they are actually so close to each other and in most cases I can t even tell which pic I prefer. I like the portret pics more on the iphone and I feel like the pics are better exposed, while the s24 ultra has way better zoom and all lenses, which is really useful. Both camera are great but I ll chose the samsung bc of that improved battery that lasts longer, the s-pen that I will need often, the ai features, the DEX mode which turns my phone into a laptop with every screen. I m upset that the difference in the camera is so little, bc now I can t justify the crazy prices
Samsung camera takes red or magenta shots and iphone more on yellow and bit of orange warm.
It would be interesting to see this test done not with the Default camera app on both phone.. the Default camera apps processing is so wired... 🤓
Trust me if I could I would. But then you will have way more people complain about that test because majority of people use the stock camera app (and it’s a more fair comparison) even though if I manually shot the raw images and edit in Lightroom they would look 10x better
@@LeeZavitz Maybe use Lightroom mobile Camera app on both phones would be a pretty good comparison? even tho there are better apps for shooting Raw on both phones.. Its was a great comparison video tho! GREAT WORK! 👍
The iPhone seems to have like a "warm" filter tones on all the time. Sometimes I like it, but sometimes it just looks somewhat unnatural.
The phone itself may not owe you nothing but the company behind advertising their camera system maybe 🤔
I think that if Samsung raised the quality of portrait photos to Apple's level, more people would choose Samsung. I know many people who chose Apple just because it takes better portrait photos. Everyone wants to take a cool photo of a child or at a party. It would be nice if Samsung achieved this through an update. Regards
THANKS
nice video
So the winner for me without an update is the S23ultra!
yes the 23u and no the 24u
thank you for these beautiful photos
Especially if you can find it cheap now that it’s been out for a year
I think you forgot to mention or he just forgot that you can take the exposure up as high or low as you want to on the iPhone or the Samsung pho he didn't know that you could make the photo look way better I think everybody just points and shoots and they forget that they can take the exposure up or down however they want and they forget about that and that's why one or the other wins sometimes it's because they forget that they can change the exposure to all the way up halfway or all the way down or in between any of them and that is why he's saying the iPhone didn't worse because there are a lot of pictures like this that he didn't do very well on the iPhone or the Samsung photos and He just forgot that you can move the exposure to bring it all the way up or down without having to use that computer you can do it right on the phone you just swipe up and then hit that little I looking icon on the iPhone And then you can take a photo at any exposure and it will be way better than the Samsung phone and vice versa I don't know what the icon looks like on Samsung phones but I'm sure it's the same concept maybe Next time you do this test you can take that into consideration and then you'll get better photos on both of them
The natural details of the A are much better !!
The green tint is what I highly dislike about my S24 Ultra 😐
It was easy to identify
yellowish? -> Iphone
oversaturated? -> Samsung
A best camera
Mesmo preferindo samsung, é inegável que o iphone faz um recorte melhor.
Team iPhone 🎉🔥
The iPhone appears more realistic in most scenarios. In fact, I would like to see which of the two mobile phones has a more accurate screen color display.
One thing i noticed in the comparison is that ip15pro max is warmer
seems like a mixed bag
Did man say the iPhone has better portrait cut out? Samsungs portrait cut out has been proven to be better for the last like 4 phones
No. Every test I did the s24u was consistently worse. Which is weird because I remember doing a similar test last year with s23u and it was better than iPhone 14 Pro Max 🤷🏻♂️ maybe Apple got better and Samsung stayed the same?
Turn off optimizer my goodness
I really dislike the contouring and eye brightening the iPhone does. Can that be turned off? It's like having "no-makup makeup applied"
S23 ultra and s24 ultra are both on beast mode for samsung and no iphones are touching them 2 monsters of a phone. Everything bout them two galaxy phones are on 100% point..
I prefer the s24U
Good work my brother
Guys let subscribe 😊
iPhone 15 pro max portrai 😱😱
Seems biased ngl
I got the new S24 ultra and I've not once faced the over exposure issue you mentioned here
I have to say something.
I'm not using any of those phones.
But if you compare the cameras, you have to go all out.
I think if someone wants to get the best picture you have to use 200mp option that's the simplest thing (i phone doesn't have the) it's not a Samsung's fault.
You can compare 48mp -50mp
But if you want to say what is the best camera phone it has to be based on their best performance.
I don't understand why peoples act 200mp option is just a unwanted thing. It's their for get the best picture.
Think you have to get a group photo, think what's ganna be the best
200mp is not a gimmick. I usely take 200mp photos and edit and put on social media.
iPhone Forever❤
I don't know how many pictures you take, but I only get 12 points to camera A and the rest is B
iphone > s24u here, but close.... most because color saturation. Samsung always with this fake ultra blue sky. I was hoping for more neutral colors and no exaggerated HDR optimizations on RAW. Did not happen. And it seems that Samsung exaggerates the "optimization" when the Sun appears. There should be a switch in the settings: Samsung colors Real colors.
I spotted iPhone shoot because since 12 series there are a Yellowish teint on them...
I think the Xiaomi 14 Ultra will easily outperform them, especially in night photography
I feel like iphone takes real images but samsung makes them prettier with software therefore creates illusion that it has better camera. It's weird that it can capture moon but can not do the same for human skin in close range.
That’s because the moon is literally an overlay enhancement. It would be much harder for human faces. But that said as AI gets better who knows what we will see
B iphone?
Prefiero el s24 ultra
A little heartbreaking to realize Im liking the iphone shots a LOT more than the samsungs here. & Im a samsung user. Samsung usually beats iphone but doesnt seem like it after watching this.
so they are almost about the same.. but .. apple 15 pro max has better video overall.. so...i want great pictures and videos.. my vote is apple 15 pro max! ( although im waiting for the iphone 16 pro max in september. Im using a galaxy fold 5 at this moment and im both apple and samsung fan.... :)
