iPhone 12 vs Google Pixel 5 vs Samsung Galaxy S20 FE - CAMERA Comparison! _ The Tech Chap

The depth and character of an image with that aggressive auto-HDR is just evening everything out. Another example, it's a similar look across all three. I'm not a huge fan of the S20's portraits though, the colors are just way too saturated for my liking, but I guess if it's going straight on Instagram then maybe that's what you want.

Okay, let's switch to some low-light photos although we're not using their night modes yet and the iPhone shot here is the brightest. But the white balance has turned my ambuy yellow light into a purely white light which has kind of changed the tone of the whole shot. The Pixel 5 and the S20 are more true to life, but it's interesting how they're all quite different. It is good to see that with all three we can use night mode with the ultra-wide.

So this photo was in almost pitch darkness like I couldn't see anything on the screen when I took this so I think the Pixel does have the most detail if you look closely at the petals on the flower. But the iPhone, while softer is much much brighter one more outside and again using night mode and actually they all came out really well. The iPhone is the brightest on the outside but then the lamps and the inside lights are the most blown out.

But it does go to show that you really can't go wrong with any of these phones. Now I do appreciate the Pixel is the only phone with a dedicated Astro Photography mode, but on a tripod in my back garden no edits no extra lenses or anything this three and a half minute multiple long exposure really is stunning and actually if I apply a small color edit to all three to get the most out of them although the S20 can't really keep up.

But yeah if you're a stargazer then the Pixel is absolutely the one for you. Almost done now, I promise but let's switch to the front camera for a few selfies starting in low light and firstly without and then with night mode again it's good to see that we can use night mode with a selfie camera as well.

I think the iPhone's done really well here sticking with selfies but this time in portrait mode. And I think both the iPhone and the Pixel do a great job here, but in slightly different ways. If the iPhone is the Instagram me then the Pixel is reality me. The S20 FE doesn't do so well here, the colors are off, I look somewhat beautified even though it's all turned off.

And yeah it doesn't quite keep up. But what about front-facing video? Well I've got the S20 FE and the iPhone shooting at 4K because they can from the selfie camera. The Pixel is limited to 1080p but in terms of quality, you've got quite a bright background here also the colors of the leaves and the detail in my face.

What do you think? How do they compare? I'm also switching between the microphones and all three you'll see a little speaker icon so you can get an idea if you're using this phone to vlog or whatever take videos, uh what the sound quality would be like. Can't see the Pixel has the narrowest field of view and actually this is just at one time but I can punch into 1.4 well it's a little bit close for my liking so you are getting more in the frame on the iPhone and the S20 and also that 4K uh video as well.

So what do you think in terms of just quality, maybe sick of my face by the end of this? I'm telling you extra points to the iPhone that we can also shoot with Dolby Vision HDR with the front camera again. You'll need to watch it back on your iPhone or Adobe Vision compatible display or TV but if that is something that you're interested in having a fancy high dynamic range then yeah I guess that's extra points.

So what do you reckon which camera do you think came out on top here? Let me know in the comments below for me. I think the iPhone and the Pixel are kind of neck and neck they each have their own qualities but I do feel the S20 FE falls behind a little bit though it's still very good but it would be my third choice here if I absolutely had to pick one then I think I would probably go with the Pixel 5.
