    Personally I think pixel photos look more professional. Just like a shot on a professional camera , aesthetics matching perfectly. When comparing Samsung it looks more bluish and sometimes less detailed and on the iPhone it looks more warmer and mute. Anyone who doesn't focus on editing can post a pixel photo directly in social media.
    Great vid bruv 💙. Keep em coming

    You can tone down the HDR in camera settings - more settings - turn off Ultra HDR.

    • @ItsTomRich
      @ItsTomRich  11 днів тому +1

      This is different - that’s actual HDR colour mapping. I’m talking about how colours are represented in normal photos on the pixel

    Being the only phone in the market where the exposure and shadow sliders require you to switch to another page in the camera app in order to access them, instead of being directly in the viewfinder - is still a step down and added inconvenience that just doesn't make sense. Not that a large part of their decisions make sense to begin with but yea..

      @@ItsTomRich Did you use it as your main phone for a few months? I have used 5a and very disappointing except the photography. Under sunny day, while I was recording a video, it would stop the recording stating the phone was too hot. Annoying af. Hopefully, there is no more such issue.

      Whoever is praising Chinese phones for videography, surely hasn't tried the iPhone 15 Pro Max vs Chinese phones side by side... I agree in terms of Photography Oppo/Vivo has leapfrogged the competition but pixel 8 pro is still the king of Photography

    • @SK1Pintheflesh
      @SK1Pintheflesh 11 днів тому

      ​@@HansTechTalk Well I know the capabilities of the Pixel 8 series cameras are outstanding, producing more vivid colours rather than true to life (which can be adjusted to the users preference) but the camera hardware on the chinese smartphones already gives it an edge over the Pixel 8 phones, besides the latter does more processing than the former here. And as for iPhones, I think that one speaks pretty much for itself.
