Low-light photography is a challenging task for smartphone cameras, as it requires capturing images in conditions where there is limited light available. In our testing, the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus's rear-facing camera performed better in low-light situations, with more detailed images and better noise reduction.

However, when it came to the Sony Xperia XED Premium's rear-facing camera, we noticed that it struggled to capture enough detail in low-light conditions, resulting in noisy images. However, the Sony Xperia XED Premium did have an advantage in terms of resolution and aperture, which may help improve image quality in low-light situations.

**Slow-Motion Comparison**

Slow-motion mode is a feature that allows users to capture fast-moving objects at high frame rates. In our testing, both cameras produced impressive results when it came to slow-motion video recording. However, the Sony Xperia XED Premium's rear-facing camera seemed to have an edge in terms of smoothness and stability.

The Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus's rear-facing camera, on the other hand, struggled to maintain a steady frame rate in low-light conditions, resulting in choppy footage. However, when it came to capturing high-speed objects, both cameras performed admirably, with good detail and accurate color representation.

**Audio Comparison**

Finally, we compared the audio quality of both devices, including their stereo sound capabilities. While both cameras produced decent audio, there was little difference between them. The Sony Xperia XED Premium's rear-facing camera seemed to produce slightly better audio quality in some situations, but the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus's rear-facing camera was still capable of producing good audio.

In conclusion, our comparison of the Sony Xperia XED Premium and Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus cameras revealed that both devices have their strengths and weaknesses. The Sony Xperia XED Premium's rear-facing camera excelled in bright sunlight, with good dynamic range and accurate color representation. However, it struggled in low-light situations, resulting in noisy images.

On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus's rear-facing camera performed better in low-light conditions, with more detailed images and better noise reduction. However, it struggled to maintain a steady frame rate in bright sunlight, resulting in overexposed images.

Overall, we recommend considering your specific needs and preferences when choosing between these two devices.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhat's up YouTube saf here on super saf TV and welcome to the camera comparison super saf style between the Sony Xperia xed premium and the Samsung Galaxy S8 plus so in the usual style we'll be looking at both the front and rear facing cameras and images as well as video 2 do also look out for the audio icon in the corner of the screen and that will indicate to you which device the audio is coming from and I'll be switching between these two to give you guys a better idea of the differences in audio as well so we're currently in my car and we have plenty of light coming in we're going to be heading Outdoors doing some outdoor tests and then we'll also do some low light tests so let's get straight to it so we are now Outdoors we're still using the front-facing cameras but we're going to be testing out the stabilization so I'm just walking right now and uh let's go ahead and turn this into a bit of a run we've now switched over to the rear facing cameras we're filming at 4K and uh just to give you an idea of the differences in quality now let's go ahead and take a bit of a walk at 4K now we've switched over to 1080p uh to see the stabilization so let's go ahead and do a bit of run now we're indoors in room lighting with the xeria xed premium testing out the autofocus seems to be doing okay now with the S8 Plus in the same lighting and this definitely seems faster with the Dual piix a of focus so that was the video now before we move on to the images in terms of what we're working with here the Xperia xed premium has high resolution for both the front and rear facing cameras but the S8 plus has a wider f1.7 aperture for both the front and rear facing cameras now all images that you'll see have been taken on automatic I've not tweaked any settings the only thing I've switched off is beauty mode on the front-facing camera and that's to really see the quality of the images from both devices starting off with some selfies I think both are doing good here you can see that the Sony is favoring the Shadows a little bit more and I think the S8 is doing more of a balanc job in terms of the dynamic range the background isn't as blown out as as what we have on the Sony but the Sony does have a wider angle of view so you're going to be able to fit more people in in your selfies with the Sony going in 100% you can see that we can crop in further on the xed premium because we do have a higher resolution but I do think the colors are a little bit on the greeny to Yellow side I think the S8 does have more natural skin colors there's also some softening happening on the exed premium and remember I did switch off the beauty mode now some of you may like that so that is going to come down to your personal preference now moving on to a low light selfie so this is outdoors under Street lighting the S does seem sharper here the xed premium does look a little bit blurry especially towards my top and once again it seems to have a bit of a green yellowy sort of tint uh I think the colors are more natural on the S8 the S8 also has a front facing flash which illuminates the display to give you some more light I couldn't find a similar option on the xed premium Now moving on to some outdoor shots so we've got a macro shot here and both of these were taken at roughly the same distance you can see that we've got a wider angle view on the xed premium but both seem to be doing a very good job going in 100% you can see that we've got lots of detail on both and we've also got a nice shallow depth of field the SE does have better dynamic range however the white petals are a little bit blown out in some cases here on the XA premium Now an outdoor wide charts here both are doing really good going in 100% because of the high resolution that you have on the Sony you can crop in further but in terms of quality I think both are doing very similar you can see that there is definitely some sharpening going on on both of these as well uh you're only going to be able to notice this if you go in 100% now here is another wide shot and in this shot the S8 does seem to have better dynamic range there's more details in the shadows and also the clouds we can see more details in the clouds whereas those are being a little bit clipped on the xed premium to test this even further I went to an even more tricky situation uh once again the dynamic range on the S8 is definitely winning out here for me we've got similar detail in the clouds but the Shadows are definitely better here on the S8 plus compared to that of the xed premium Now moving on to some low light tests so we've got an indoor low light test the S8 does seem sharper here and a little bit brighter I think the colors maybe slightly better on the xed premium but to really take this test further went Outdoors at nighttime and the S8 is definitely brighter here and also sharper going in 100% you can see much more detail on the text here and although you can crop in further on the exed premium the text is not as sharp finally a shot using the flash I think both are doing pretty good here there still seems to be a bit of a green tint on the Xperia XZ premium now this is similar to what we had with the front-facing camera as well I think the colors it tends to lean more towards that greeny side so guys that is the super saf style camera comparison between the Sony xperior xed premium and the Samsung Galaxy S8 plus now to conclude I think for the front-facing camera the S8 did seem better overall in terms of dynamic range as well as sharper video for the Sony you did have a higher resolution and also a wider angle of view so you are going to be able to fit more people on to the Selfies that you take with the Sony and you also going to be able to crop in further now for the video from the rear facing camera I think quality-wise both were good the S8 plus definitely has better autofocus that dual pixel auto focus is definitely faster I would say for 4K I think the S8 was a bit more stable but at 1080p the Sony was stable with that intelligent active mode outdoor images I think both are good but the SA did have better dynamic range we saw that in many different situations the Sony however is wider with a higher resolution so once again you are going to be able to crop in further into your shots with the Sony now when it comes to low light I think the S8 was definitely better I think that comes down to the fact that you've got less megapixels that are being crammed onto the sensor and you do have a wider aperture slow motion wise Sony obviously has the higher frame rate 960 frames a second which looks at absolutely epic but one thing to bear in mind is that it's very difficult to capture you have to press it at the exact precise moment of when you want that action and that can sometimes be hit or miss so that lighter scene actually took me about 10 tries to be able to pinpoint it at the exact point because that slow motion is a very very quick burst nevertheless it is a pretty Epic feature but it's just something to bear in mind now for the Audio I think both were pretty much the same for me I think both did really well both of them do have stereo sound which is great but you can always go back and have a listen and decide for yourself that's what I think anyway what do you
