As a user of the Galaxy S24 Ultra, I believe that the choice between different smartphone brands is a matter of personal preference and individual requirements. Each brand offers excellent products, and it is ultimately up to the user to decide which one best suits their needs. It is important to remember that we are all consumers, and there is no need for animosity or hatred between users of different brands.
Yeah I also have a Samsung but I can see obviously that even though it's better in some aspects, it's also very bad in comparison in certain other regions. All 3 phones have a clear winning and worst feature
they have these phones for some days already, had time to review them. they also set a timer in youtube to release the video at a certain time, it's done automatically.
I rewatched the sequence and it def doesn’t “crush” the other, color are 90% the same( higher constrast and saturation with the Samsung ), all of them produced blowout sky when filming a subject inside the car and stabilisation is matching. You may find it better with your taste but it’s not like we are comparing a red camera to a phone where the differences would be drastic.

My big issue with these kinds of videos is no one shoots using Samsung in Pro Mode for comparison which in my opinion gives the best output. Especially Pro Mode 50mp mode with all the dials set to auto. It doesn't over process the final image as much and captures light more naturally. 50mp gives all the sharpness you'd want in a phone photo as well.

Man, it just popped into my mind how much acting a TH-cam creator must do in videos like this. I've been in on this channel since the ground floor, before it even reached 40k subscribers, and have never left. Obviously everything has been improved, but more so than anything, Tom, your acting has gotten so much better over time. I am ATROCIOUS at fake laughing and smiling, so this is coming from a subject matter expert. Let's face it - you were bad at it for awhile as well, but now it looks so much more natural. (Lol, i promise this is meant as a compliment.)
I do prefer the samsung cinematic mode or portrait mode the background blur is not too much more like a movie type of blur but very natural compared to the heavy blur on the iPhone
I find the photos kind of misleading. By default apple gives natural tone while others saturate it to make it look good, Which can be achieved with photographic style on iPhone. BTW Cool Vid.
Natural tones meaning turning a purple wall painting white or a green wall on the ice-cream van to black? U guys really use apple's tongue instead of your eyes
It's hard to choose between pixel 9 pro and samsung s24 ultra. But considering both use a lot of AI and algorithms to embellish the pictures, i think i like the S24 slightly more because you get more enhancement and they don't feel too unnatural. If you like truer tones you might like the Pixel more
To be quite honest, I am disappointed with the performance of the iPhone 16 Pro Max. I'm not hating on Apple, but I was expecting a bigger performance jump over the iPhone 15 Pro Max. And it also did not separate itself enough from the S24 Ultra and the Pixel 9 Pro XL. Sorry. And those reflecting lights are still there. The new coating apparently makes no difference. Just being honest. I'm not buying the 16 Pro Max anymore.
Don't, I have tried Samsung twice, in 2023 and now in 2024, I returned to iPhone in less than a month both times, you're going to hate it. Just warning you, from OS, to speed, to camera quality, trust me, stick to your iPhone.
@FATHOLLYWOODB123 he can try for 15 days and then return it and take his money back with return policy. So he can try. I use s24u its faster than any iPhone at launching daily apps like social media and the online content inside the apps also loads faster. For cameras quality i think the video speaks by itself, i mean look at this contrast disaster on the newer iPhone next to 1 year old Samsung 3:33
Have been thinking about making the conversion from Apple to Samsung for some time. This might be the year. The iPhone 16 really needs to go back in the oven until it's fully baked. The iPhone 16 feels like it was pushed out the door too early from a Kickstarter campaign.
This coming from a trillion dollar company with the best engineers is honestly disgraceful. They keep touting how great their Shiney new cameras are. In smartphone land processing is king and pixel has it locked down for some time now.
The video was very engaging. I appreciate your honesty and thoroughness. I completely agree with your assessment that the Pixel is the best point-and-shoot camera. The iPhone seems to be lagging behind, and while Samsung offers many features, the Pixel's images are more balanced and natural-looking. In my opinion, the Pixel excels by maintaining consistency and continuous improvement ✨😎
I think because he used the "In-Frame" option for the sound there. Later on in the "iPhone Features" chapter he demonstrates the effect of the different options and when using the "In-Frame" option it sounds exactly the same. However when he uses the "Standard" option it sounds much better.
I think the standard sound was way better than any of those other settings. I hate it when phones try to cancel out sound in video and then you end up with this hollow sounding audio. Just record everything and do it at high quality.
No picture in the blind test I chose the iPhone All my choices are between the Galaxy and the Pixel The Galaxy is the winner in this comparison for sure We are waiting to see what the Galaxy 25 Ultra will do.. I think it will beat both together
I think i like the iPhone 16's results the least. For comparison it would be great to have an argentic/analog picture of the same scenes to have a point of references in terms of tones. Purely on aesthetic (not technical quality) i'd say S24 Ultra, then Pixel, then iPhone. Now if i knew what the scenes were looking like IRL it would maybe change my mind.
Every test seems to show the same thing on iPhone, it tends to lean on the underexposed side. This can be fixed pretty easy though as you can just set EV comp to +0.3 or +0.7 and turn on ev persistence in settings. On my iPhone 13 Pro I actually did this but -0.3 because I found it liked to over expose a bit. Colour wise, the other brands definitely push the vibrancy and saturation higher whereas the iPhone tends to keep things more true to life. Now I actually prefer this as I find overly saturated pics sickening to look at, but I understand that some people like this. They can turn on the vibrant picture profile which will make images look more punchy. I'm quite impressed by the Samsung, it has its problems but its certainly a HUGE improvement over how things used to be. The Pixel I find to be good. But there isn't really anything else to say about it. Its not special. Its just... good.
Samsung is still the king in overall tests. Iphone without a doubt has the better video and applications support, probably the main selling point. Feel like Pixel doesn't belong here, in my opinion the worst in photos and videos. Would love to have an Honor in the middle of these phones.
This guy is delusional ... The Pixel doesn't belong here 😅😅😅 In what world are you living in? Pixel has the best camera point & shoot camera hands down and you're saying it doesn't belong here because you're a Samsung fanboy understandable I guess 🤦🏽♂️☠️
@@yaboipookiepook Samsung fanboy? Calling me a fanboy just because I have a different opinion. I'd never use a Samsung, it's UI is terrible! I love Pixels, my favorite android phone, I just don't think it perfomed that well in these test. My opinion, you can have yours and I respect it
@jrm7895 Chinese phone, your comment reeks of nonsense. If you're gonna come, please come with a more non-sensical argument-based gesture. Geez 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
I would say it’s all subjective, but for me, I know I’m biased towards the iPhone when it comes to photos as an iPhone user as well as videos which nobody can deny iPhone is King
Photo comparison is interesting because one of the larger criticisms of iPhone photos in the past is that it has a tendency to overclock saturation especially on blues. I’m surprised to see it more muted now.
S24 ultra shocked me 😮😮😮 pixel is king of photo, and iPhone takes the crown in the video department, but seems like the s24U is an overall and still manage to outstand them
Keep in mind Tom, most us aren’t creators, its all about the point and shoot, so the Pixel is head and shoulders the easy pick here. Also, to paraphrase Marques, smartest smartphone in the room
I’m rather impressed by the pixel here. It has come a long way in the video department. While I carry both a iPhone and pixel device on me at all times, I used to always take the iPhone for videos but now I kinda toss it up and choose video boost on the pixel more often
@@jemiljmathew9090 Go ahead and use Android then. We like natural feeling more over any other oversaturared/image processing/being too colorful pictures/videos.
Pixel maybe, s24 never, too bright, too much exposition, pictures look flat, blown away, small difference between subjects and the sky for example. Just compare the dynamic range on s24 and pixel
Ain't no way any people with proper sense in photography would go for Samsung. Samsung has the most typical midrange phone photos. I am still figuring out how people likes oversaturated, overexposed photos from a 1200$ flagship phone. Its supposed to give Raw DSLR like photos
Great video as usual Tom! I do like the look of the S24 Ultra and Pixel photos, but the iPhone still seems to be better for video overall IMO. I currently have the 15 Pro Max, but I've decided not to upgrade this year due to the new iPhone not having any features I actually need over the 15. What phone do you currently daily drive now Tom? I am thinking of possibly getting the S25 Ultra next year, I'm currently torn.
@@tawsiaislam2855 TBH no one wants colourless flat photos in this generation. Even professionals grade their photos in Lightroom ao I Guess it doesn't actually matter even if the photos are slightly saturated. You can always adjust in Lightroom.
In overall, Pixel is pretty good but no where close to Samsung S24 Ultra and iPhone 16. You can't go wrong with either for the latter 2. I'm leaning towards the Samsung S24 Ultra. The best overall. Video has improved a lot and very much acceptable although the iPhone is still better at it. I'll be getting the Samsung S25 Ultra/Note next year if nothing goes wrong...
Pixel isn't close to Samsung? Lol tell me another joke. Pixel literally has the most amount of details in its photos and the dynamic range is miles ahead than Samsung. Keep wasting money Samsung fangirl
Wow, what a great video! Never knew all of the top dogs are THIS close to each other One question tho, does this tripod make their videos more stabilized? 🤔
Pixel takes better photos, hands down. iPhone photos look like they've been over-sharpened and the clarity is turned up way too high. They're just not that great, in my opinion.
I would like to see some comparison of the HDR picture modes of all three phones. When i bought the S24 Ultra, the the vibrant colors and dynamics in the pictures blew my mind, because bright objects are now also bright in pictures. The pictures now look more like real life, like looking trough a window.
@@kunalthakur.307 I think samsung is the king of portrait for edge detection and how the image looks usually don't need extra edit for posting on social media
You are just an android fangay😂😂. 15 Pro Max (not even 16) Crushed, dogwalked, demolished s24 ultra mid. 16 pro is better in all photos and there is no exception😂.
I was going to switch from iPhone 13 Pro to Samsung but this video has convinced me to upgrade to iPhone 16 Pro Max. Thanks. the fact that it has the new Tone Balance tool and it works in a mindblowing way. Apple basically said, we controlled how the image looked in prior phones, now you have full control. just the way I want it
Good job with this one man. I know you put a lot of time into it! Had to watch this twice! Keep up the good work. You're one of my favorite reviewers! 🔥
@@frenchtoastenjoyerThis is a lie Samsung is actually BETTER on Snapchat. It’s the only social media app where Samsung is the best for photos it is a higher resolution and uses the full HDR algorithm . And the quality on insta is about the same these days just select “upload in highest quality in the settings problem solved”
Maybe go to an Apple store and compare those instead of watching the videos. You will get it why it's important to have natural pictures over oversaturated and over processed images/videos. It just looks like the barbie movie compared to how more natural iPhone looks. Samsung is very good in taking pictures from a long distance but why would you perse need that when you take pictures of your self/friends/family anyways.
Pamiętaj, że S24U to konkurent iPhona 15 Pro. Nie liczy się rok wydania, tylko przedział technologiczny. Samsung S24U miał premierę na początku Q1'24, a iPhone 15 Pro w Q4'23, co jest po sobie bezpośrednim wydarzeniem, a nie jak niektórzy myślą S24 wydany w Q1'24 vs iPhone 16 w Q3/4'24. Apple ze swoim najnowszym telefonem przegrało ze starym telefonem Samsunga. A co dopiero będzie, jak za 3 miesiące Samsung zaprezentuje bezpośredniego konkurenta czyli S25U XD
I'm impressed that you didn't complain when the 13 Pro Max or 14 Pro Max was saturated, instead you kept pushing it, but now that the tables have turned and the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is experiencing saturation, you're suddenly taking notice.
Erickson, you're speaking as though, that's a bad thing to knock against Pixel. Actually, it's a feature that actually helps my argument, rather then goes against it.
Point is, you wouldn't have to wait 12-24 hours sending files to a cloud if the Pixel recorded good video to begin with. iPhone videos are high quality, ready to send, edit as soon as you hit stop record and it takes it even further with native Log. The Pixel is behind in video.
@EricDejuanOOO Honestly, I use the Video Booth on Pixel and maybe when they first introduced the feature on last year's iteration but since then I've never waited 24-48 for a video to process so please come with some more Intel when you're trying to come with that argument against Pixel ☠️🤦🏽♂️
Rather than making fun of a phone you don’t like , how about we take a deep breath and just appreciate how far tech has come . And for once just appreciate how different systems deliver when it comes to photography. Is that too much to ask for in 2024? Can we be civil ? Mm?
If you have the slightest idea of what a good photo or video should look like then 95% of the times the iPhone is by far the best choice. The photo of the red tesla is a good example. If you are the average “Joe’, the pictures especially of the Samsung with the Vivid filter applied by default will look better to you, especially if you have no training or passion about photography.
Atleast half the photos from iphones come out with way too warm colors, is dull and lacks any character. The other two phones give a punchy vibrant photo that looks good. And believe me, atleast 90% of the users are not going to edit more than 10 photos a month. These are not film grade cameras, so the average joe should get good pics .
You definitely don’t know what a good picture is, all the noon day pictures on the iPhone was over processed, the colors were too warm and was not pleasant at all, yes the iPhone did a lot better in low light for me.. videos is a no brainer, iPhone takes it every time, let’s hope that future update on the 16 fixes the pictures although I am not planning on buying the 16s

I've been in on this channel since the ground floor, before it even reached 40k subscribers, and have never left. Obviously everything has been improved, but more so than anything, Tom, your acting has gotten so much better over time. I am ATROCIOUS at fake laughing and smiling, so this is coming from a subject matter expert. Let's face it - you were bad at it for awhile as well, but now it looks so much more natural. (Lol, i promise this is meant as a compliment.)
I do prefer the samsung cinematic mode or portrait mode the background blur is not too much more like a movie type of blur but very natural compared to the heavy blur on the iPhone
I find the photos kind of misleading. By default apple gives natural tone while others saturate it to make it look good, Which can be achieved with photographic style on iPhone. BTW Cool Vid.
Misleading cos your opinion differs? Wow
Its because they target people who want ready to share photos
Did you just said natural? Oh come on
iPhone 16's photos are too unsaturated
Than even 15's
Meaning... You didn't like the results 👍
Natural tones meaning turning a purple wall painting white or a green wall on the ice-cream van to black? U guys really use apple's tongue instead of your eyes
s24 ultra still taking the overall best photos in my opinion. Could be a software fix for the other 2?
when it comes to high end phones quality mostly depends on software.
@@avatarxs9377 Unless you're talking about really long distance photos. Then hardware is still very important
They are all top and you can't choose wrong. But as a S24 Ultra user i would say: 1. Pixel 9 Pro , 2. S24 Ultra and 16Pro
you're living in filter era! Imao😂😂😂😂😂
It's hard to choose between pixel 9 pro and samsung s24 ultra. But considering both use a lot of AI and algorithms to embellish the pictures, i think i like the S24 slightly more because you get more enhancement and they don't feel too unnatural. If you like truer tones you might like the Pixel more
Bro wants filter
The S24Ultra is already making the iPhone 16 sweat in these comparison, imagine when to launch the 25Ultra. 😂
I ordered the IPhone 16 Pro Max and should be arriving this Friday, but definitely the Galaxy S24 is the clear winner here.
Yea for photos def
Nah. S24 is loser and its night and day difference. You guys just blind.
Clear winner in producing photos looking like a midrange phone. The pixel and iPhone looks like natural DSLR image
To be quite honest, I am disappointed with the performance of the iPhone 16 Pro Max. I'm not hating on Apple, but I was expecting a bigger performance jump over the iPhone 15 Pro Max. And it also did not separate itself enough from the S24 Ultra and the Pixel 9 Pro XL. Sorry. And those reflecting lights are still there. The new coating apparently makes no difference. Just being honest. I'm not buying the 16 Pro Max anymore.
Yes lens glare is still a problem, and that freaking yellow tint
me too tbh
Me too
I was waiting for this..this will decide if im switching to s24 ultra
Wait for s25u
Wait 3-4 months get the S25 U
@DEWIESMYB w8 s25u , the cameras won't be much different but the chip will be improved a lot.
Don't, I have tried Samsung twice, in 2023 and now in 2024, I returned to iPhone in less than a month both times, you're going to hate it. Just warning you, from OS, to speed, to camera quality, trust me, stick to your iPhone.
@FATHOLLYWOODB123 he can try for 15 days and then return it and take his money back with return policy. So he can try. I use s24u its faster than any iPhone at launching daily apps like social media and the online content inside the apps also loads faster. For cameras quality i think the video speaks by itself, i mean look at this contrast disaster on the newer iPhone next to 1 year old Samsung 3:33
every apple vs samsung s24 ultra comparison makes me love the s24 ultra even more
Have been thinking about making the conversion from Apple to Samsung for some time. This might be the year. The iPhone 16 really needs to go back in the oven until it's fully baked. The iPhone 16 feels like it was pushed out the door too early from a Kickstarter campaign.
This coming from a trillion dollar company with the best engineers is honestly disgraceful. They keep touting how great their Shiney new cameras are. In smartphone land processing is king and pixel has it locked down for some time now.
Finally a video pratically explaianing everything. This helped me take my decision.
The video was very engaging. I appreciate your honesty and thoroughness. I completely agree with your assessment that the Pixel is the best point-and-shoot camera. The iPhone seems to be lagging behind, and while Samsung offers many features, the Pixel's images are more balanced and natural-looking. In my opinion, the Pixel excels by maintaining consistency and continuous improvement ✨😎
S24ULTRA still beats this new phones wow😮😮😮
@@udugbesibenjamin8285 no
9:40 S24U sounds like a premium microphone meanwhile iphone sounds like a muffled $5 mic 😂
😂
I think because he used the "In-Frame" option for the sound there. Later on in the "iPhone Features" chapter he demonstrates the effect of the different options and when using the "In-Frame" option it sounds exactly the same. However when he uses the "Standard" option it sounds much better.
No it doesn’t? And you can just change the way it sound by turning off the audio audio mix thing
@@astrosnoot7943
Shut up it's obviously clear
And creator of the video himself didn't change any settings just straight out of the box
@@NAJIONTOP Alright calm down! Ok so if you don’t like the way it sounds default then turn audio mix on then! I just thought it was already on.
I think the standard sound was way better than any of those other settings. I hate it when phones try to cancel out sound in video and then you end up with this hollow sounding audio. Just record everything and do it at high quality.
you looks different (better) with glasses, and WOW THAT WAS FAST (First iPhone 16 video?)
thank you! Yep my first vid, more coming!
No picture in the blind test I chose the iPhone
All my choices are between the Galaxy and the Pixel
The Galaxy is the winner in this comparison for sure
We are waiting to see what the Galaxy 25 Ultra will do.. I think it will beat both together
I think i like the iPhone 16's results the least. For comparison it would be great to have an argentic/analog picture of the same scenes to have a point of references in terms of tones.
Purely on aesthetic (not technical quality) i'd say S24 Ultra, then Pixel, then iPhone.
Now if i knew what the scenes were looking like IRL it would maybe change my mind.
No one will say this, but I think 24 ultra was better
Every test seems to show the same thing on iPhone, it tends to lean on the underexposed side. This can be fixed pretty easy though as you can just set EV comp to +0.3 or +0.7 and turn on ev persistence in settings. On my iPhone 13 Pro I actually did this but -0.3 because I found it liked to over expose a bit. Colour wise, the other brands definitely push the vibrancy and saturation higher whereas the iPhone tends to keep things more true to life. Now I actually prefer this as I find overly saturated pics sickening to look at, but I understand that some people like this. They can turn on the vibrant picture profile which will make images look more punchy. I'm quite impressed by the Samsung, it has its problems but its certainly a HUGE improvement over how things used to be. The Pixel I find to be good. But there isn't really anything else to say about it. Its not special. Its just... good.
Samsung is still the king in overall tests. Iphone without a doubt has the better video and applications support, probably the main selling point. Feel like Pixel doesn't belong here, in my opinion the worst in photos and videos. Would love to have an Honor in the middle of these phones.
This guy is delusional ... The Pixel doesn't belong here 😅😅😅 In what world are you living in? Pixel has the best camera point & shoot camera hands down and you're saying it doesn't belong here because you're a Samsung fanboy understandable I guess 🤦🏽♂️☠️
@@yaboipookiepook Samsung fanboy? Calling me a fanboy just because I have a different opinion. I'd never use a Samsung, it's UI is terrible! I love Pixels, my favorite android phone, I just don't think it perfomed that well in these test.
My opinion, you can have yours and I respect it
@@yaboipookiepookyou are delusional with your chinese phone
@jrm7895 Chinese phone, your comment reeks of nonsense. If you're gonna come, please come with a more non-sensical argument-based gesture. Geez 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
I would say it’s all subjective, but for me, I know I’m biased towards the iPhone when it comes to photos as an iPhone user as well as videos which nobody can deny iPhone is King
Iphone turning portrait off was a feature in the Huawei p40 pro plus, i think 4years or 5yrs ago.
Huawei used to be a great option, before the US ruined things...
Photo comparison is interesting because one of the larger criticisms of iPhone photos in the past is that it has a tendency to overclock saturation especially on blues. I’m surprised to see it more muted now.
Iphone always was dull.
For audio, Samsung galaxy s24 ultra is clearly the best.....the sound is insanely crisp!!!
I’m actually surprised by how good all 3 were. Close enough to where you can’t really go wrong with any.
S24 ultra shocked me 😮😮😮 pixel is king of photo, and iPhone takes the crown in the video department, but seems like the s24U is an overall and still manage to outstand them
I like the samsung over all.

Keep in mind Tom, most us aren’t creators, its all about the point and shoot, so the Pixel is head and shoulders the easy pick here. Also, to paraphrase Marques, smartest smartphone in the room
I am searching for this type of video on whole internet and i find one, no it's the only one !! Good job
I’m rather impressed by the pixel here. It has come a long way in the video department. While I carry both a iPhone and pixel device on me at all times, I used to always take the iPhone for videos but now I kinda toss it up and choose video boost on the pixel more often
No doubt : S24 Ultra😍, value for money option than the other 2
If you’re content creator, you wouldn’t even touch Samsung or Google. Apple is King for content creation.
@@Adamtendo_player_1
What if we r not interested in iPhone?
Bro, there no huge gap in video quality, I personally like OPPO FindX7Ultra's video more😂
@@jemiljmathew9090 Go ahead and use Android then. We like natural feeling more over any other oversaturared/image processing/being too colorful pictures/videos.
@@bassproduktions8080
I have VIVO X100 PRO, it has Zeiss's natural mode. No issues 🥳
@@jemiljmathew9090i thought you were Samsung fanboy cuz you act like them
What this shows is the latest iPhone isn’t very good except for video but most of us just take pictures.
Tf pixel and s24 photos look better in most of the images.
I conclude that the Pixel is best for photography
Pixel maybe, s24 never, too bright, too much exposition, pictures look flat, blown away, small difference between subjects and the sky for example. Just compare the dynamic range on s24 and pixel
@@diogor8968for you, maybe. But it's a matter of preference. All of those phones take really good photos
Probably cause the iPhone got no updates, and those two had a year already lol
Ain't no way any people with proper sense in photography would go for Samsung. Samsung has the most typical midrange phone photos. I am still figuring out how people likes oversaturated, overexposed photos from a 1200$ flagship phone. Its supposed to give Raw DSLR like photos
Great video as usual Tom! I do like the look of the S24 Ultra and Pixel photos, but the iPhone still seems to be better for video overall IMO. I currently have the 15 Pro Max, but I've decided not to upgrade this year due to the new iPhone not having any features I actually need over the 15. What phone do you currently daily drive now Tom? I am thinking of possibly getting the S25 Ultra next year, I'm currently torn.
The Samsung s24 ultra seemed to be the best of the lot. Even the video has improved so much and it's right up there. Amazing video.
The S24 has a 'ready to post' colour style. While iPhone is more like muted style colour, which is more flexible to colour grade.
You can always capture RAW on any of those phones if you want to colour grade
@@KalpitWankar-j4o yeah, but the file gonna be huge
@@KalpitWankar-j4o even Raw photos are processed on Samsung. It doesn't give you true Raw
@@tawsiaislam2855 TBH no one wants colourless flat photos in this generation. Even professionals grade their photos in Lightroom ao I Guess it doesn't actually matter even if the photos are slightly saturated. You can always adjust in Lightroom.
S7 edge is clearly the winner here .
HTC One M7 i think won
Asus Zenfone 10 is beating them all.
The only beast ever made @@Thetechchap
iPhone 3GS is the better
Samsung killed it, doing pretty well against the new arrivals, is this with the new 6.1.1 3GB update ? If not still looks great
My s23ultra have still not got one ui 6.1.1 yet😢
Thank you so much ! Heading to the S24 Ultra for sure.
So I should go for a s24 instead of iPhone 16?
I personally always used iPhone but if your looking at it from the most important angle which is the camera, Galaxy defiantly takes it
In overall, Pixel is pretty good but no where close to Samsung S24 Ultra and iPhone 16.
You can't go wrong with either for the latter 2. I'm leaning towards the Samsung S24 Ultra. The best overall. Video has improved a lot and very much acceptable although the iPhone is still better at it.
I'll be getting the Samsung S25 Ultra/Note next year if nothing goes wrong...
Pixel isn't close to Samsung?
Lol tell me another joke. Pixel literally has the most amount of details in its photos and the dynamic range is miles ahead than Samsung.
Keep wasting money Samsung fangirl
Coping mechanisms kicked it hard lol
@@tawsiaislam2855 exactly!
Can we get a reference photo from a DSLR or a separate camera? Just want to know how colour accurate it is.
Wow, what a great video!
Never knew all of the top dogs are THIS close to each other
One question tho, does this tripod make their videos more stabilized? 🤔
S24 ultra is looking good. It captures the warmth of the sunny day perfectly. I like it.
Imagine if the S24 Ultra is already this good what more when the S25 Ultra will be release a few months from now 😂😎
Pixel takes better photos, hands down. iPhone photos look like they've been over-sharpened and the clarity is turned up way too high. They're just not that great, in my opinion.
And yet people are praising Crapple here
@@jrm7895crsamsung
I would like to see some comparison of the HDR picture modes of all three phones.
When i bought the S24 Ultra, the the vibrant colors and dynamics in the pictures blew my mind, because bright objects are now also bright in pictures.
The pictures now look more like real life, like looking trough a window.
Bro, appreciate your work! I think you are the quickest one to do well detailed comparison videos.
S24 4:41 has the option to add blur to portrait
so does the samsung, but it's artificial, doesn't always work well (and sometimes not at all). the iphone is using real depth info it captured
@@Thetechchap All portrait blur is artificial. The iPhone just use depth data to artificially add that blur.
@@QuicknStraight You're quite right - but that is at least more accurate based on the actual depth of the scene
@@kunalthakur.307 I think samsung is the king of portrait for edge detection and how the image looks usually don't need extra edit for posting on social media
S24 Ultra is ❤
IPhone with the ton of contrast as always 😂😂😂😂 killing the shadows making them just black 3:33
Yes they are aggressive with the image processing i think since the iphone 13 series
You are just an android fangay😂😂. 15 Pro Max (not even 16) Crushed, dogwalked, demolished s24 ultra mid. 16 pro is better in all photos and there is no exception😂.
@Honamiichinose we see the same video don't we?
@@Honamiichinose🤣
Disgusting how they do that, anyone know any photographic styles tricks to use to fix the nonsense that apple calls a photo?
I was going to switch from iPhone 13 Pro to Samsung but this video has convinced me to upgrade to iPhone 16 Pro Max. Thanks. the fact that it has the new Tone Balance tool and it works in a mindblowing way. Apple basically said, we controlled how the image looked in prior phones, now you have full control. just the way I want it
Good job with this one man. I know you put a lot of time into it! Had to watch this twice! Keep up the good work. You're one of my favorite reviewers! 🔥
samsung is seriously the best but when it comes to instagram stories, the quality of the images will get reduced significantly.
True is there any solution?
Not just instagram but most social media apps snapchat is way worse
@@frenchtoastenjoyerThis is a lie Samsung is actually BETTER on Snapchat. It’s the only social media app where Samsung is the best for photos it is a higher resolution and uses the full HDR algorithm . And the quality on insta is about the same these days just select “upload in highest quality in the settings problem solved”
@@mohdniyaaas nope, it's Instagram’s fault. some apps are not as great as on the iPhone.
@@frenchtoastenjoyer ikr. it's so annoying 😭
Damn i was planning to switch from s24 ultra to iphone 16 pro max 😢
Me I'm more into videos then pics I'm switching to iphone
Maybe go to an Apple store and compare those instead of watching the videos. You will get it why it's important to have natural pictures over oversaturated and over processed images/videos. It just looks like the barbie movie compared to how more natural iPhone looks. Samsung is very good in taking pictures from a long distance but why would you perse need that when you take pictures of your self/friends/family anyways.
Pamiętaj, że S24U to konkurent iPhona 15 Pro. Nie liczy się rok wydania, tylko przedział technologiczny. Samsung S24U miał premierę na początku Q1'24, a iPhone 15 Pro w Q4'23, co jest po sobie bezpośrednim wydarzeniem, a nie jak niektórzy myślą S24 wydany w Q1'24 vs iPhone 16 w Q3/4'24. Apple ze swoim najnowszym telefonem przegrało ze starym telefonem Samsunga. A co dopiero będzie, jak za 3 miesiące Samsung zaprezentuje bezpośredniego konkurenta czyli S25U XD
@bassproduktions8080 There is nothing natural about the iPhone pictures. Smooth pictures, too grey to be a natural sky ? Come on
What a stupid mistake that would be
I'm impressed that you didn't complain when the 13 Pro Max or 14 Pro Max was saturated, instead you kept pushing it, but now that the tables have turned and the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is experiencing saturation, you're suddenly taking notice.
All you tubers the same😒
Exactly !
Taking notice and saying that he prefers it. So who is the one actually complaining here? 🤷♂😂
Being British, you don't have so much bias towards Pixel or iPhone. Good video...

@@Thetechchap 😂😂😂
Holy crap Video on the Pixel 9 is so far behind.
You really Do Not believe what you just said 😅😅
@@yaboipookiepook Yes, that's why it needs cloud a.i. (Video Boost). On device video on the Pixel 9 Pro is years behind even Samsung.
Erickson, you're speaking as though, that's a bad thing to knock against Pixel. Actually, it's a feature that actually helps my argument, rather then goes against it.
Point is, you wouldn't have to wait 12-24 hours sending files to a cloud if the Pixel recorded good video to begin with. iPhone videos are high quality, ready to send, edit as soon as you hit stop record and it takes it even further with native Log. The Pixel is behind in video.
@EricDejuanOOO Honestly, I use the Video Booth on Pixel and maybe when they first introduced the feature on last year's iteration but since then I've never waited 24-48 for a video to process so please come with some more Intel when you're trying to come with that argument against Pixel ☠️🤦🏽♂️
Samsung galaxy S24 Ultra the best 🎉
pixel smoked s24 in photo, and iphone smokes all of them in video, samsung is not the winner lol, iphone is better and pixel

I Can’t wait for the S25 Ultra! 🌌🌌
Galaxy cam is superb
so basically the biggest difference are the colours?
Always has been
On point video, just the Tech Chap way.. S24 Ultra nails it in the photography department much more than the Pixel though.. Much Love :)
Rather than making fun of a phone you don’t like , how about we take a deep breath and just appreciate how far tech has come . And for once just appreciate how different systems deliver when it comes to photography. Is that too much to ask for in 2024? Can we be civil ? Mm?
We are just so happy that there is a video release 👍🏻
It's hard to choose between the S24 and the 16 Pro Max
What do you mean? They’re the 2 most different in terms of processing. Also the only right answer is pixel
Pixel 9 pro xl is better as iPhone 16 pro max 😂😂
If you have the slightest idea of what a good photo or video should look like then 95% of the times the iPhone is by far the best choice. The photo of the red tesla is a good example.
If you are the average “Joe’, the pictures especially of the Samsung with the Vivid filter applied by default will look better to you, especially if you have no training or passion about photography.
Na it would be pixel ,even though not consistent but when it does good ,it does way better than any iPhone
Atleast half the photos from iphones come out with way too warm colors, is dull and lacks any character.
The other two phones give a punchy vibrant photo that looks good. And believe me, atleast 90% of the users are not going to edit more than 10 photos a month.
These are not film grade cameras, so the average joe should get good pics .
You definitely don’t know what a good picture is, all the noon day pictures on the iPhone was over processed, the colors were too warm and was not pleasant at all, yes the iPhone did a lot better in low light for me.. videos is a no brainer, iPhone takes it every time, let’s hope that future update on the 16 fixes the pictures although I am not planning on buying the 16s
I'd say I prefer the iPhone as it's more relistic... besides the sky lol
