Hi everyone, I'm just a regular guy that likes to make videos. I like to review tech and show the camera capabilities on the newest mobile phones.

As for s23's cam, by default, its point and shoot is really more vivid and somehow saturated, meaning, a ready to share photo. But if you want a more natural look, just switch off the scene optimizer and auto hdr in the settings and you're good to go. That's why samsung gave options like that, so people will be able to choose. Only people who dont know how to tweak camera options always complain about oversaturated photos.

As an overall package I i still choose the 23 plus. Battery, modem software features, charging speed are way more important. The only thing I hate about Samsung picture is the way it does color. I wish they tone it down. Seems like color is too orange or yellow or saturated.Look at your skin tone. As an Asian myself I hate that my skin looks like a sunburn

Vivid-er photos does draw the eyes faster than "realistic" colours. My old backup photos from Samsung seems much more eye catching than the ones from other phones. Sad reality but it's a reality nonetheless.

That was great, thank you!

At max discounted prices with no trade-in's / other discounts factored in, I'm inclined to go with P8P (but haven't yet run it through nearly as extensive photo scenarios).

December 2023: P8P 256GB @ $734
September 2023: S23+ 256GB $699

Pixel cameras and app may be better and snap photos faster in some/more situations
(really a toss-up, depending on your preferences in terms of automated processing/saturation, etc.).

Pixel 8 Pro has 12GB of RAM to S23+ 8GB (mention as a potential benefit for future processing / "AI" tweaking headroom)

Samsung Expert RAW camera has direct Adobe Lightroom integration (not sure if it is as seamless in Pixel)

Beyond the cameras and apps:

Pixel 8 Pro gets 7 years of Android updates, feature drops, and security patches (into 2030). S23+ gets 4 Android upgrades with a 5th year of security patches (into 2028). Last update ends on Android 17. Not sure I'd still be using a 6+ year old device, but maybe as a backup...

Google's software releases occur the fastest of all and in a more holistic/unified fashion. Samsung releases piecemeal in Europe, then eventually the US on newest hardware platform then, other past models lag behind.


Pixel 8 Pro uses UFS 3.1 vs S23+ UFS 4.0

Hey man
Did you mess with the camera settings on your s23? I'm getting photos that aren't even close to what you get

[mernik]

I thought it was just me my s22plus takes better pictures than pixel 7pro

[naanidelahoya]

Samsung camera are the best for my opinion

[sviraci]

And how is "smoothnes" on the s23+? Same bad Like on the Ultra? Because comapred to the Pixel is stuttering and hickups noticabale

[paranjaysahoo]

Samsung through and through, but the low light wide angle photo from the pixel are just so good

[edmondov]

Is there a way to adjust the colors to more natural on the galaxy?

[ar]

I'll take Pixels over Sammys any day!

[SocialPerspective]

Right at the end u said S22 instead of S23 !

[hienho]

Whenever people say that Samsung photo stands out more because of their saturate colors, I tend to disagree. When I look at pictures, the one closest to natural and true to life stands out more just because my eyes tend to look at realism rather than pictures that try to brighten their subjects for social media purpose.

[gregorysampson]

I take the Pixel 8 Pro, over the Samsung, plus Google is dropping software upgrades to fix issues. Team Pixel 8 Pro all day every day

Plzzzz plzzzz plzzzz review vivo x 100 pro and vs with s 23 ultra

[canismajoris]

What about a Huawei P70 Pro Art Edition or Red Magic 9 pro?

[rotrose]

The question is : why is always Samsung the worst in this domain? We find a lot of Chinese phones have much better camera system than Samsung specially vivo x 100 pro... Samsung must cooperate with Hasel blade, Zeiss or leica to improve the photograph section
