- Reviewing the best camera phones in 2024 including the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, Xiaomi 14 Ultra, Pixel 8 Pro and more! These are my favourite smartphones for shooting photos and video, offering slick camera experiences and results. I've tested them all, from that Samsung S24 Ultra to the Honor Magic 6 Pro, Xperia 1 V and Huawei P60 Pro - and you can expect more hot smartphones to launch soon in 2024!
Check out my review of the best budget cameraphones for cheaper alternatives.
Google's flagships are still two of the best camera devices for shooting great looking family photos. The Pixel 8 Pro and regular version can capture slick pics day or night, while the 7a is great on a tighter budget. If you're more into video, check out the iPhone 15 Pro Max or Samsung's Galaxy S24 series, especially the Samsung S24 Ultra. And Xiaomi's latest 14 series phones are ideal for camera lovers, especially the Xiaomi 14 Ultra with its expert video controls.
Last year's Huawei P60 Pro is still easily one of the best camera phones in 2024, although the lack of Google services will put many punters off. And if you like DSLR style Pro controls, check out the Sony Xperia 1 V.
So those are my favourite cameras on any mobiles right now. Did I miss out your pick of the best? Let us know below and check out my reviews of these phones here on Tech Spurt!

Gotta say Chris, I watch your channel for your humour, not just the tech. That, and I see eye to eye with alcoholics.
Yeah He's like a guy in a podcast while you laying down to your sofa drinking beer
@@UltraVegito-1995 Amen
"eyes to eyes with artichokes". .. Now that's deep my man, respect, (oh feck auto correct has made it weird)
I watch for the anime wall papers
Love ya Chris! 💋
Photos on the Xiaomi 14 ultra looks absolutely gorgeous
Thoroughly explained of each phone. Well done Tech
Before watching I guess vivo x100 pro is on another level.
I like your channel, content and I'm watching this video, even I don't care about any phone camera😄 Even the best one there is far from my canon camera and lens, but I still watch it, i would say it's for sure 15 years behind it😄🤷♂️ It's the thing how you talk, your enthusiasm about every detail💪
Wow, I can't even imagine how much work you must have put in this massive video, cheers!
You are truly a Tech Spurt 👍🏾
I still love your pictures and videos, you and the family are having a good time and I love it. About your excellent collection of phones my GOD! The wonderful tech in today's phones makes me wonder what a full fledged camera would have under its hood. The terms you use, it's like you are speaking another language and the Vivo actually has cameras from three different manufacturers and 3 different countries? Now that's crazy, no wonder these phones cost as much as all of granny's teeth. Thanks this was fun 👌👌👌👌👌👌
I've just come back from Hong Kong and the Camera Kit comes as a free gift with the Xiaomi 14 Ultra. 44:45 Not sure whether that's the local or the global version mind but even then. And its cheaper... Swear to God sometimes we get done proper like a kipper here in the UK.
The deal seems to have gone now, but I received the photography kit, and the Pad 6 tablet included as gifts, which I've been very impressed with!
The deal is back today.. Just purchased with free tablet as well!
@@MarkJohnson-qw5jz Nice, Enjoy! You'll love the phone. The tablet has really surprised me as well, lovely refresh rate and screen.
@@MarkJohnson-qw5jz any links
@@piczoo how have you found battery life? I have followed closely on Reddit and facebook and lots of people seem to say it’s awful (like 2 hours SoT while using mixed camera and media etc). And lens fogging?
Hey guys, I need a advise: I want to change my phone with a excellent phone but in small size. I have 3 candidates: S24 (but I'd prefer to get it in the US because of the Snapdragon chip), Xiaomi 14 or wait for the Pixel 9 pro that is expected to be 6.5". Which one would you choose?
It's nice to see and hear you in every video. It's a great pleasure to read the comments. Many thanks!
I think this is the first time I have seen uncle Spurt say something nice about the iPhone. It’s refreshing and makes your opinion more credible. My dad always said “Give credit where credit is due”.
Thanks for video.
Which android smartphone is the best - camera, battery life simple interface to use?
OnePlus 12
I crack up every time I see your cat's little white moustache!
I have only one request please tell me where u get the sick looking wallpapers
Pls tell me pls❤❤❤
As an iOS user who came from a Pixel 6 Pro to an iPhone 13 Pro Max and now using a 15 Pro Max I have to say I am not massively impressed with any iPhone cameras. The OS and ecosystem for me feels far more premium than any other device I’ve used, but it amazes me that my Pixel 6 Pro from a couple of years ago is still a better choice for photography than the current top-spec iPhone.
All of them are excellent at taking very beautiful images👍♥️ but neither of them are perfect😉
Love your content Sir
Vivo 100x pro is so good
i was hoping you would give your opinion on which you find the best camera... there is no final thoughts to this video...
How do you manage when juggling several phones and keeping track of family on the move in a train etc?
Even just carrying & using two phones can get quite trick at times. You do visit some great places to test a camera, so well done.
No Oppo Find X7 Ultra?
Can we get a review of that phone plzzzzz
the p60 pro telephoto punches way beyond what it suggests on paper. Out of about 5000 photos that I've taken with the phone probably 4000 are with the telephoto as I simply can't find any compromise with it. A big reason for not using the main camera as much really is how wide angle it is as I have to be way too close to something to bring out the best it can do.
Omg at 11:00 that is the city where I live, I hoped you enyojed it!
What are your picks for really good camers pho es eith no ai
Where can I get the Xiaomi 14 Ultra's wallpaper in good quality for my phone?
Thank you for video OnePlus 12 best option for 2024 💪😍✨
does the Xiaomi 14 Ultra have overheating issues?
have there been firmware patches for bugs?
how does HyperOS compare to MIUI? What did they remove/cripple/break in the "upgrade" ?
It's improved hyperos
@@MotoX78 this doesn't answer the questions. How is HyperOS "improved HyperOS" ?
Which phone would you recommend to get refurbished?
No Oppo find x7 ultra Chris? You should reach out for a review sample, i imported one to the UK a month ago and its a real beast
It is a Chinese phone without support in eu. So u have really hard times to buy one in eu beside importing it
@@Giorgiio69yeah so what I live in the US and just ordered in on Giztop . Anyone can do it
Which phone is the best? I am looking to buy a new phone and the main thing I want it to have is an amazing camera. So of all of these which has the best camera?
I am a oneplus user. And most of my friends use iphone not the latest one though.. 14 being the latest one. One young girl use pixel 6a and people were impressed with the photo quality even the iPhone user. It's rare in our region using pixel phone they soon started developing interest in pixel phone. Some of my friends don't know pixel phone. Even me I like the outcome of photos from pixel. I am someone who is more focused on gaming performance so pixel is big no for me but the impression that leave behind is astonishing.
My father is eighty years old. He is an elderly man and has a medical crutch. Is it possible for my father to use a modern smart phone? Are there any problems or drawbacks? Can you answer?For example, what is a simple phone and how much will it cost in dollars? Do you mean economic category?
Honestly shit, a near one hour long tech spurt video? YES PLEASE!
Please make a budget laptop video
One plus 12 with that price, can't beat that combo 💪🏻
oppo find x7 ultra? though it's difficult to buy in EU and GB
Photos are over exposed in that phone , xiaomi overpose when its human subject but oppo overexposes all of them
My uncle I you so much ❤❤ and your videos
OnePlus 12 is awesome 😎
i really can't get over with your previous name as Recombo.
Shenanigans count: Massive.
I love the 1V. You have to learn to use it but then you have the best smartphone camera I have ever seen. The 24 mm performance in particular is uniquely good.
Do you think Google relies too much on AI to make their photos better? Cuz they dont upgrade their cameras too much year over year.
Xiaomi 14 ultra pictures are miles ahead
Vivo for photography all the way.
Was the list in incrmental order of recondition or random
40:56 I'm having some Shining flashbacks from that portrait shot
Sir, I hoped you paid well that girl model in the photos, she definitely deserves a raise. 😌
Watching from Bangladesh 🇧🇩🇧🇩
cant afford:( good review
I wish u could in future ❤
same here in Cyprus...1400 euro the phone with free photography kit and free S3 smartwatch
can download google camera and deny network permission on P8P
You should have reviewed the s24 plus cause for you are not interested in the s pen or the zoom, then the s24 plus is as close to the as you will get.
No Honour magic 6pro?
Isn't this the one he is reviewing at 51:14?
*Can't end a day without spurting at Tech Spurt uploads for a moment*
Is a 'spurt' an 'upload' or a 'download'...? 😉
🤔
if someone is just starting, i recommend pixel series, if they want to dive deeper, xiaomi 14 series, if they absolutely are serious about photography, i recommend sony
What about S24 Ultra?
@@mxxxnmxxxs4313 s24 ultra is good but I think pixel 8 pro is better value for money, the main sensors are basically the same size (which is the thing that actually matters) and it has a more balanced overall camera system being all similar resolutions unlike the s24 ultra's inconsistency. The camera app itself on the pixel is also more user friendly in my opinion and the fun AI features of the pixel match the s24 ultra. In my country Australia, the pixel retails for 1349 while the s24 ultra starts at a whopping 2199 AUD. Most people would prefer the pixel look over the s24 ultra anyway too.
You got a camera comparison vid like this one for budget phones? I've been looking for a new phone but nothing fits the bill. Just 2 of my criteria literally rule out about 75% of my options in the UK: fast charging (min 50W) and no miui/hyperOS. A bunch of remaining phones are then eliminated by my budget of around £300
I tried the oppo find x5 (non-pro), it was great in some ways, underwhelming in others. I took photos with it side by side with my older, cheaper poco f3 and at times the F3 produced objectively better photos! Given one of the main reasons I was upgrading was because of cameras, I gave the oppo back.
Oneplus might have 1-2 phones that fit my bill (I've looked and I'm pretty sure there was something that I disliked about them, can't remember what tho), there's the nothing phone (meh), and... That's about it
Could get a flagship from about 2 or 3 years ago?
Probly better cameras than new mid rangers, and can find one on ebay refurbished for a pretty good price?
I recently liked a post on Instagram that showed photos taken on an A55. They looked really good
@@RedFoxRoaming which one tho? Samsung's all charge slow and have exynos chips. Pixels have bad battery life and Tensor isn't the best. Oneplus are out of budget for the most part and Xiaomi are out of the question cuz I strongly dislike MIUI
OnePlus 12 has blurry images when u zoom in picture.
You forgot one of the best, Oppo findx 7 ultra !
This video needed a lot of shenanigans
I would love LOVE a review of tje Xiaomi and Vivo phones that purely focuses on the long term software experience compared to Samsung and Pixel. All well and good having great cameras, but whars the user experience like with the OS
He should start using warzone mobile for game testing
Pixel 7a most budget bang for the buck
Nope
iPhone 15 is
@_techfan nah iPhone 15 only got a 60hz screen
@@AnasKhan-ni9xx iPhone 60hz is smoother than pixel 7a 90hz
@_techfan nah I can already tell you rock a old iPhone 6 and think you're better than modern midrange androids.
I'd honestly like some of what you're smoking.
@@AnasKhan-ni9xx I use pixel 7a and iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 is definitely smoother
I'm looking for smartphones for night concerts
Hey everyone! I'm on the hunt for the best video-centric Android phone of 2024.
After 24+ hours of research, I'm leaning heavily towards the Xiaomi 14 Ultra, but I'm open to other suggestions.
I'm a content creator, vlogger, and love shooting cinematic videos, so I need a phone that can handle top-tier videography.
I'm not interested in iPhones, and ideally, I'd like to keep the budget under $120,000 INR (but I'm flexible if there's something amazing out there).
What do you guys think? What are your top 2 recommendations for the best videography phone in 2024?
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 Please help me genuinely
You missed the oppo Find X7 Ultra.
How long duz the battery lasts on Samsung s24 plz
4 hours sot
Terrible ik
@@_techfanSoT depends on the connection and apps being used. If you play Genshin all day then of course your SoT will be terrible.
How long do oppo a9 2020 last

Every company should provide the camera kit for their top flagship phone...like Xiaomi did
Maybe is a bit pricey phone but I think Xiaomi 14 ultra is jack of all trades
x100 pro my fav

Sony Xperia 1 V 🤩
Im very happy with my S23 Ultra. It has still one of the best cameras Although it was released at the beginning of 2023. Now with the AI update it has become even better!
I have to say otherwise sir. S23U is mediocre at best.
Dude It is still a Brand New Phone
dont let u Trick by Marketing
1 year is not old
Since s22 u dont need to Update. Theyre all the same.
There are many examples of pics and videos where Vivo is 3 heads better
Wish has best zoom x100 ?
Xiaomi 14 ultra
I am just trying to convince my wife that I need the Xiamoi 14 Ultra that I saw in the official Xiaomi shop in Kuala Lumpur this morning for £855, including the camera kit. Only here for two days so I need to get a move on.
That's a great price. Don't know what you're upgrading from, but it's a great little toy
Tell her that you need the best camera to capture all her beauty and all the lovely memories you'll make. That did the trick for me once 😅
Get it if you can afford it, the camera kit itself already cost $200 USD
@@figoxorBrilliant! 👍🏾
wow
S20FE king number 1
Nice to see you sober my man, but to be honest I prefer it when you let it all go, so to speak like ya kna
Uncle spurt, why you never test Oppo, i remember you did so many tests on Find x5 then you stopped :(
Not available in Europe so he probably doesn't care
Wait sony xperia 1 mark 6
Pixel 7a? :))))
bots again but xiaomi 14 ultra 🔥⭐
well done
How you know which phone camera best, u never do camera comparisons in details ,I never saw you expect sitting on table and explained.
But. Get the Google 8 Pro now, or wait for the 9 Pro???
I love my Pixel 8 Pro , best android skin , especially the macro mode , I use it all the time on my girlfriend’s breast
And what your girlfriend's husband thinks about it?
🗿
People owning iphone 13 pro , s22 u , pixel 7 they shouldn't upgrade for camera
Pixel 7a
Subscribed and impressed!
Xiaomi has serious condensation issues which cause the lens to fog up.
Not true.. I've had mine for a couple of weeks with no issues.
@@Avgeek1564have you experienced excessive heating?
No Oppo X7 Ultra on this list?
This guy actually looks like Zinedine Zidane 😂
No Oppo x7 ultra?!
You look like pep guardialo 😂and man city are winning the prem this year.
Honor magic 6 pro is my choice. That quick shutter has no rival in the android world.
TEAM galaxy, vivo and huawei!!!!!!!
I have a Huawei p60 pro and an Instagram page for photos, many times people ask me what camera i use, they dont believe when i say these photos is with a smartphone
Verdict?
Asus' flagship was left out on this video
Samsung s24 and Samsung s24 Ultra
