We have lined up the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, Xiaomi 13 Pro, and Vivo X90 Pro, as well as the Xiaomi 12S Ultra, to see how Samsung's 200MP camera holds up against the heavy hitters with 1-inch camera sensors.
Three of these phones have a 1-inch type sensor, one has 200 million pixels, all of them can capture 8k video, and some can zoom to the moon and back from the comfort of your pocket.

Gotta respect GSM arena for their honest reviews

[bloomylicious]

I think I'll always take a bigger sensor over megapixels, just wish we could get better lenses with variable apertures too

That's a whole lot of info to cram into a 10 minute video and they did a brilliant job at it; every relevant aspect of the still photos each phone takes was covered in a concise yet thorough manner. Kudos!

great camera comparison, we need more comparison videos like this, even if its bit longer..

[boahzard]

Your videos are detailed..I love them ..keep up

[RealLifeTech]

Youtube's compression really f'ed this one up. Sadly the detailed shots got converted into a blurry mess 😕

[David-Dumont]

U should do it again with the s23 ultra, Iphone 14 pro max, Xiaomi 13/13 ultra, Oppo x6 pro, Vivo 90 pro plus, Huawei p60 art and Honor magic 5 ultimate. That'd be proper

[petertrex]

It's a bit of pity that Find X6pro was not included. But ig that phone released literally a week ago so...

also, People tend to turn off Ziess NC until X80pro but on 90p+ Ziess NC is way better than the default.
I wish you guys would included those ones and 2 leica modes.

We need mirrorless camera vs smartphones notably the 13 pro since it does output very camera like photos

[PatrickMorris]

What mode was s23 ultra shot in? The standard mode doesn't do much processing, I have to set it to 50 or 200 do get much processing

[pedropcs_exe]

Damn, the night mode on the Xiaomi 12S Ultra is amazing. Really didn't expect so little noise.

[Musica-zpzn]

hey..it's me again.. we need this comparison with video too :)

[RKFX]

What about the camera issues that no one is mentioning ? scanning documents come out blurry and it's on IP14pro, s23, pixel7pro

[Musica-zpzn]

We need video comparisons.... specially in 8K

[salimrajan]

Xiaomi 13 pro is the best overall on this lineup! Better night shots and faster charging❤

[areldcookie]

Samsung should bring back their variable aperture!!

[azuDemagen]

Extremely well done. The differences between 12S and 13Pro are interesting, considering that they share the same sensor and processing. Hopefully you will revisit this format in a bit when P60, X6 and new Honor become available.

[thebenjermen]

Great video, but if I didn't see you and was only listening then I'd 100 percent believe your voice was ai lol

[RayKhuboni]

Xiaomi 13 Pro is the best smartphone here. The level of detail in an image captured is good. A bigger sensor is definitely suitable, and some clever AI processing would help with the lacking capabilities.

Nokia N95 5mp to Samsung S23ultra 200mp. Our generation is lucky to came across all this technology
