Thanks for watching! Are you someone who wants the more well rounded smartphone camera or the one that can get a more professional result?

Quick notes
1. Samsung has released a camera update. It actually came out the same day this video released and improves upon some of the issues I highlighted in this video.
2. After staring at these photos even longer I do want to give the iPhone credit for it's white balance. Even thought I preferred the jpeg images from the Samsung for their resolution and overall look, the iPhone did a better job with the white balance.

I’d definitely like to see the S24 used for street photography. Samsung has made great improvements with the camera and video.

I love the portrait photos of the Galaxy.
S24 ultra photos are really pleasing to my eyes.

The best camera is the camera you have with you. I am a retired photographer that got tired of carrying gear everywhere and am also pretty tired of extensive post processing. I use a S24 Ultra now as my primary camera because I always have it with me and the pictures it takes are almost always exceptional right out of the box. I lean toward the "postcard" look anymore because it packs the most wow factor. And the Samsung's auto processing packs in a lot of wow into a small space that I prefer and feel a photograph actually needs to make it appealing and attention getting to the average eye. I call it the punch factor. This is of course personal preference. But most of the people I show my pictures to seem to feel the same way. There's a reason people like postcards.

just got your Momento book in the mail the other day after watching your YT vid on making it. Been thinking about making an art book of my work with some essays thrown in. Thanks for sharing, the book is dope!

Today’s update has improved the S24 Ultras cameras a lot.

I'm not anything close to a photographer, but I take pictures daily for my work (dog walker). The comments I got about my pictures once I switched from iPhone to Samsung have been night at day. People LOVE the pictures now. Could be coincidence that phone cameras are getting better in general, but man it's very noticable. I don't do much editing other than crops, and have been just using point and shoot

For the last three months, I've been using a 15 pro, a pixel 8 pro, and 24U. After trying them out, I've decided to stick with 24ultra.

The fact that you have to look for the evidence to see the difference, got to show how far the smartphone camera has come, that was not possible years before

My husband does not like the iphone for the same reasons you listed (he shoots a Z8) I'm still thinking about the Samsung for reasons other than the camera. I would not mind a phone I can do my night neon shoots so I do not have to figure out how to conceal my camera for safety.

[justineforres]

Could you please do the iPhone 15PM vs Pixel 8 pro when you can.

[hypnoticdropbear]

Its pretty clear that from the macbook and shoe photo that he is a iphone fanboi

[joel.wuestehube]

Fascinating, Samsung seems to have really stepped it up to get more natural photos in the last years. My S20 was a inconsistent nightmare

When I'm editing my photos on Lightroom from my Samsung, the final outcome of the edited image is fine.

[ashouhdy]

@9:23 i can see the digital processing you refer to .., ,, the Samsung natural look is truly much better !! 😮

[VR_UNLOCKED]

Just thinking of this video, u just dropped it !!!

[typos]

How about installing a gcam port on the s24 ultra and then checking out the RAW files from that ? Gcam manages to get more detail from the ultras cameras and the RAW files are better too.

[ZenStence]

Are you using high efficiency or most compatible in iPhone?

[karshism]

Why didn't you take any photos and video in low light?
