Update - Google's Panorama Resolution has now been fixed, in a recent software update!
The resolution might be higher than in your video, but probably still not high enough in order to compete with the iPhone as the resolution is still low.
Andrew Garfield does tech videos now? Im sold
Been doing this for years, w d mean 😕
@Mike-uy7ph in Earth 616 he has?
@@Mike-uy7ph I don't think you get the joke sir😂
He lost his Gwen. So yeah he got no work to do.
😂😂😂😂😂
While the Pixel 9 Pro XL is steadily becoming a top contender in the smartphone world, it still has room to improve, especially in video performance. The Pixel’s camera system is impressive, but it needs to catch up in video capabilities compared to the iPhone 15 Pro Max. Hopefully, with the upcoming merger with TSMC, we hope to see enhanced chip performance in the next model, making the Pixel even more competitive. 😊
For photos, I still think PIXEL reigns supreme. Pixel has been doing AI since Pixel 6. It's Apple who needs to catch up.
The new tsmc chip for pixel canot enhance the video performance bcz the chip can enhance the video the Samsung should be done in 24 ultra they cant
Only the thing is software
@@xdadev nonsense
@markgt894 No, it's not
Traded in my Iphone 15 PRO Max for my new Pixel 9 PRO XL 512gb Hazel color.. and after using 1 week...love it!!
is gallery fast in pixel 9?
@@sahilsaini4574 yes.. 💪
Eww. As long as you don’t use other Apple stuff you’re fine
*Photos :* Both are great. Pixel has better HDR
*Portraits :* Iphone
*Videos :* Pixel with video boost else the iphone
*Selfies :* Pixel
I will choose iphone any day against pixel. As phone is not just about selfies
Pixel camera only supports 4K30 HDR while the iPhone can do 4K60 HDR since the iPhone 12... nice try Google. 👎
Thanks!
@@CLOSEUP001 Exactly, ios can't even do 50% of stuff Android can. So for most rookies, ios is great. It's basic.
@@xdadev liked your own comment , feeling proud?
Really Love Pixel camera results
@metelway it's all preference
@@metelwayAre you illiterate?
I completely forgot that this channel even existed. Thankfully pixel search got me back into this
The audio on iPhone is better? Excuse me, I might be deaf, because I heard quite the opposite
While the noise cancellation was superior on the Pixel, it did so at the expense of the bass. The iphone audio had a more rounded sound overall with both highs and lows captured well.
I agree. The Pixel sounded far better than the iPhone during the selfie video comparison. Pixel retained much richer and clearer sound, while the iPhone sounded tinny and poor quality in comparison.
Pixel audio overall sounded better to me as well
You must check your ear 😂lol
@@srmillar2268 Alright, doctor
14:06, the pixel is clearer than the iphone.
❌
I definitely agree. It seems the iPhone did a digital crop while the Pixel actually used the telephoto camera
Pixel 9 pro is telling Samsung and apple to step it up
For the first time, till the half video, I got less objection about the pixel's camera performance, that is very satisfying.
Do a video of the performance of this device in social media apps but not only taking pics, film videos too comparing it to the s24 ultra and the 15 pro max
The true comparison will be between the Pixel 9 Pro XL and the iPhone 16 Pro Max, which will be launched in a few days.
Nice comparison. I am more inclined to say its more of who is taking the picture that determines the quality in todays phone market. I see parents take kids pics at sports events and they look horrible. Then they ask me to take a pic of them with their kid and the photo looks 10x better because I use the right modes or framing. I am a pixel guy, but the distances aren't drastic enough to notice in most cases. If we didn't pixel peep every photo and compare...they both are great. Were obsessed with comparing phone cameras on who's is better, while real photographers are taking the real pics worth having.
What really bothers me is iPhone almost always has a yellow or blue tint in their pictures-videos.
This can be fixed easily with Photographic Styles in iPhone. Check it in the settings ;)
This yellow comment is really getting old . Learn how to use the iPhones cameras within its settings
Great review as always. Two questions for you that would really help me out. Does the pixel do cinematic video from the front camera with background blur? If I recall correctly that was lacking on past models. Also, when you do the video boost, can that video be exported (after being boosted) or is it only for viewing in Google Photos?
Great review Daniel!
It'd be cool if you could draw a comparison on the camera experience. Like how smooth the transition between different lenses are.
9:57 “The Pixel is ever so slightly more detailed”
THE BIRD IS LITERALLY JUST PIXELS WHAT??
Dan, it's fantastic better than my 15 Pro Max and S24 Ultra, best phone I've ever had! ❤😊xx
Exactly best phone is the phone you currently own😂 for example i have vivo 1 inch sensor these pixels iPhones can't stand in front of that sweet 1 inch sensor pictures.
I recently had the chance to clean up around 70,000 of old photos and back them up, taken with smartphones the last years. Let me tell you what:
1. Photo quality? Doesn't matter that much at the end. Only memories matter.
2. Zooming in like 20x? To capture what memory? Hell no, I didn't even have even 5x zoom that was a good memory / capture
3. The most appealing focal length for photos is 28mm, it's like the 1.2X for todays 24mm camera phones.
20x is great if you want to read a menu written with fontsize 11 on a opposite side of a road.
@@mkDaniel That's binoculars then, not a camera. Totally different purpose.
I see the trend of relying on "AI" instead of hardware so they can charge you continuously instead of giving you the hardware from the start
Software creation cost money too, it shouldn't really be one over the other but rather a great balance of the two.
If u want true hardware, get a dedicated camera foo
It's only $20/month after the first year. And it only takes 9 hours for "video boost" to process your 10min clip before you can share it with your friends. Yes, there's a 10min limit for video boost
Video boost doesn't need the AI subscription ig
15:28 man the iPhone sounds way better - as if it was recorded on a proper microphone
What? I find the audio from the pixel to be better.
Vacanță plăcută 😁 I prefer the 15PM because I own one:)
Mersi! :D
Sometimes the Pixel is significantly better, sometimes the iPhone is significantly better, sometimes the Pixel is slightly better and the iPhone is slightly better sometimes.
It depends on the scenario.
I have the P9PXL and I'm always mindblown by it.
I know many people with the latest iPhones, they're the ones that always ask me if i used a professional camera. 😂
That's why i love pixel, I love surprising people with my pictures making them think i used an expensive DSLR camera.
You are officially in my top 3 for smartphone photo/video comparisons. Nice work 🙏
I remember thinking how the Pixel 8 Pro design was really human-centric and organic while iPhones & Samsungs just looked like cold pieces of glass. The flat sides of the Pixel 9 is Google taking a step in the opposite direction. Their MO has always been tech with humane designs that are made to blend with nature and everyday life. Leave the techy-futuristic designs to other companies.
I think they both need to make a 4k and 8k capable phones
Night Zoom is clearly better on the Pixel but you gave it to the iPhone?
wtf spiderman started youtube channel
Incredibly detailed test. Google has improved but still not quite where Apple and Samsung are esp with videos.
@ 7:38 Pixel crushed the iPhone comparison picture, but maybe sun was a bit hidden by. the clouds
LMAO!!
Iphone Crushed pixel most of the time what ever it’s video, portrait, night photo
Even in terms of CPU Iphone’s A17 Pro just Crushed pixel’s tensor g4
Just Imagine if Apple’s one year old device can beat google’s latest device then the 16 pro max will kick pixels ass very Hard 😂
@srmillar2268 clearly your an apple fanboy and biased af
@@garry2744 Cry pony 😂
@@srmillar2268😂 sad!
Could it be that you have often mixed up the devices? I disagreed with about a third of your ratings!
Sometimes it's subjective.
I have pixel 6 pro (tmr updating to 9 pro). I never used the panorama mode. I used horizontal line photosphere.
6:58. No way did you rate the Pixel’s Raw Photo higher than the iPhone here because of “shadows”. The sky looks like an artificial blueberry candy.
It’s a raw photo he’s rating it based on what’s for
While using S23U last year, I had to borrow friends Pixel 4a for some decent pictures of my dog (it looks like shutter lag and motion blur still plague Samsung phones). Damn, that camera performance was light years ahead of Samsung.
I switched to Iphone 14 PM, but still prefer Pixel results when it comes to pictures. Videos are whole another thing, I can't really understand why they (or any Android company) don't invest more time and resources polishing it.
It is weird how i had you followed for years now and i barely could find your channel to see if you have any updates, this youtube shitty algorithm is killing the creators
You left out Apple Log, cinematic mode for video enhanced action mode, the iPhone also shoots images with all the depth information to turn them into portrait images anytime you want, ability to shoot spatial videos
Why are people comparing pixel 9 pro xl with iphone 15 pro max when the latter's price is almost twice than the first?
Welcome to Romania! I hope you like it and enjoying your holiday here!
He is romanian 😂
Camera is a small part of what the phones can do , like gaming individual software , AI technology and much more to compare.
9:54 This is the initial video boost file, which is much, much worse than a default 20x zoom video! The difference between a normal 4k 20x video and a video boost 20x video is much, much smaller on a Pixel 9 Pro XL!
It can only get better with up dates yes . Give it a few months
Pixel did what every TH-cam reviewer said was impossible, fix video in post. It's going to be hard to beat, once perfected.
Shiba is now head of security ?
I love these comparisons but I feel like there is a big of a difference between these two. When saying some of the videos specifically are better on google, that is after offloading to the server. That is cool but its raw performance still lacks in comparison to the apple which is fine. In my own opinion I believe that in these newer phone comparisons using AI should not be a factor as it is all post processing. Good video though!
Just wait until iPhone 16 pro max
Just wait until the samsung S25 ultra
@@bizzybone428 bruh s25 ultra will have no difference from the rumours
Whole comparison is pointless because IPhone got all bugs cleared and camera improvements through the year and pixel just launched and need to fix through further updates..This guy is official marketing genius for iPhone
The pixel is the best alternative to iPhone its not as boring like it used to its simple and easy to use but still is productive enough and not as boring as ios, for being android you have capability of sideloading app and emulating and its much more costimization and as more features than ios.
Ok, but why would I prefer blurred picture 5:53 ? ... I think Pixel is better there too because it's not blurred
Now let’s see the pixel 9 pro vs the 16 pro max in a couple weeks.
Bro where you disappeared..ohh you were holiday in Romania. Ok ok. ❤ from India. I was waiting for your videos.
Sir Alex Ferguson Stand 😍🔴
Amazing to see the year old iPhone still keep up. Bring on the 16 pro max
16 pro max is not going to be much different
@@bizzybone428wrong
It seems like he's got an iPhone bias. Just some of the words he uses for Google are heavy for Google's camera than iPhones.
Pixel is just 5-10% up from a one year old device. Lets wait for 16pro.
Appreciate the amount of effort and depth in this video, but with that said, why does no one ever mention/cover the Pixel "Astrophotography" mode in the night mode comparisons?
This mode lets you take longer exposure night shots (up to 4 mins for a dark night sky, auto stacking lots of shots) and using this mode in any situation where you have a tripod/something to rest your phone on, will get you very detailed and well balanced night photos... It's weird to me that the mode isn't even mentioned because I've found it really useful and fun to play with
We used to test this but sadly, since we're based in the UK, we almost never see any stars. Only clouds :(
@@ZONEofTECH fair enough, I'm also based in the UK so can feel your pain 😂
I like the iPhone much better if only I could afford it
you forgot to try night time panorama photos . the Pixel would have demolished the iphone on that category.
This was a good year for iPhone as it still keeps up pretty well with the new pixel and the Samsung that came after, let’s see how much the new iPhone raises the bar now
Honestly most flagship phones within the last 3 years have kept up.... There's not much leaps and bounds in the camera tech, just more refinement & trying to cater color temperature, blur, etc to what is perceived that people want.
@@amazingman333yup what is perceived the people want is the right way to say it agree
Very complete and nice informaton on your video... thanks¡¡¡
American phones are far behind Chinese in camera comparison VIVO X100 Ultra not only beat these two but also beat their successors
Low key bro looks like Andrew Garfield 😂✨
I hope Pixel phones are available GLOBALLY.
they aren't?
Google need to upgrade their camera hardware to match xiaomi and vivo. Software tricks are wearing out
Why is it that no-one talks about parallax distortion in the cameras ??? Maybe ... building DO lean !
Pixel is better 18:17 amera than any other phones
using pixel 8 pro and not convinced to upgrade to 9 pro/xl. will wait for s25u or iphone 16 pro max instead
You don't seem to be healthy. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
i prefer the shots from the iPhone the most!
stop by Prague, is not super far from Romania, then we can have a date
Pixel
Watching on my 15PM 😍
Spigen is the best!
Overall pixel killed iPhone in every shadow pics and low light pics
Huawei is the best smartphone camera
Romanian viewer here 😊 hello and welcome!
Can you do s24 ultra, pixel 9 pro xl and 15 pro max camera comparison?
iphone just can't take RAW photos, it looks oversharpened. Pixel wins. The pics you can take on RAW mode with the Pixel its a photographers Oasis
It's insane that Google is charging premium prices for a phone that clearly isn't a premium phone. Any modern flagship can shoot 4k and sometimes even 8k on device but Google has to 'videoboost' your videos on their servers and send it back to you.
Not to mention their video quality overall is not consistent.
Seems the Pixel 9 Pro is a skip for this year.
Hopefully the Pixel 10 with the first completely Inhouse produced tensor 5 chip (rather than todays modified exynos chip) will be Google's Apple A-chip moment
9:53 ahahah the more detailed :D
Welcome to Romania ❤️👋 hope you'll like it here
Sau mai bine spus..."Bine ai revenit acasă!" Daniel...e român 😊
I love the pixel photos and videos
HEY kislux I have been watching you for years and im so proud of where you have made it! I love you so much! Also thanks for making my day
J’ai toujours dit que le iPhone 15 pro Max, le mettre dans la photo et vidéo naturel et réaliste❤
Best Camera of Pixel 9 pro
Pixel 9 pro xl
what would u think would be better for like concert night video shots?
Clearly you do not know how to take macro photos. Also pixel panorama is much better especially at night you did not test.
That photo with zoom enhanced looks terrible! (3:49)
Is there a better one for sky photography at night?
I will prefer google pixel over iphone
I bet pixel cant beat honor magic 6 pro camera
iphone 15 pro max portraits selfies are the worst
Also, who takes that many portrait pics?
14:52 that's because Google had a larger sensor, so the background naturally getting blurred
Dinner get me wrong, googles selfie is still worse, but this point is incorrect.
The pixel 9 pro XL already has trouble facing the iphone 15 promax in most tests so imagine the iphone 16 pro Max... I’m laughing in advance 🤭
Point Should be Noted 👍🏻
Why dont you try the nightsight for panorama?
when compare results of both camera . you should add more protrait shots of humans . so we can see the clear difference . mostly people takes shot of human . in this whole comparison there is only one human shot .
what a bias camera comparison .
you should show people how bad edge detection of pixel phone . you should show how pixel show slightly red tint when capturing humans . you should show you cant get dslr like bokeh in pixels portrait because they are not able to take 5x portrait because of their poor edge detection .
by just showing details shadows boost which can also done easily by post editing .
Like cars ….Mercedes and the rest ….iphone and …
Warum nicht den pro Modus beim Pixel benutzen
Dann hätte man 50 MP Bilder
Iphone 15 pro max front camera is worst but i don't know how you are showing so much clarity . I doubt if you are showing the real thing.
Maybe you just suck at taking photos, why the heck would he be faking it
15 pro max user here, I am not sure why people say such things, the camera is extremely good, people just make random comments without any knowledge or experience about the device
@@kanavgoyal8832it’s a very good camera , people like posting delusional comments . The 15pm cameras have been more consistent than any other phones in the US now if it only had android inside of it . Own both problems solved
