      Samsung won every portrait picture battle on every other channel. It has laser auto focus, which is widely used to measure distance. Hence the accurate depth-perception. It is the only phone that can fool people as it looks like it's from a DSLR, no matter the lighting situation. Sadly it's not this dominant on video. Again, every other big tech reviewer came to the same conclusion. MrWhosetheBoss, MBKHD and so on.

      ​@@Samosayummyyayas said multiple times, people like what the initially liked many years ago, in 2019 apple had insanely good portrait mode better than anyone and it stuck with people as the idea of what a good portrait shot should look like, therefore people like the new iPhone's portrait more cause it reminds them of that one time, idk if im explaining it right but take this example:
      I like Eminem's rapping style because I was first introduced to it and it was regarded as the best at the time that's why no matter what other rapper comes better (noone has btw) I will always subconsciously choose Eminem's rapping style to be better

      I had almost all high end Samsung and for me Samsung makes overall the best pictures except portrait images. But the iPhone (I have the 15 PM) makes fantastic portrait shots and videos are definitely much better than any phone. But all other types (night, panorama, etc etc) are much better on Samsung phones. And Android is miles away better than iOS. The iOS 18 in general is not bad, but the calendar app, alarms and specially the gallery…wow, it’s way too bad on iOS! Really THAT bad. I use my wife’s S24 Plus and it’s much better. I bought the 15 PM because battery life and video is stellar, but as soon as Samsung has a S2x Plus with cameras as good as my 15 PM, I’ll change immediately. Or Apple fixes the iOS, which I doubt. Perhaps in iOS 25 …

    I'm not a professional, but I’ll share my own thoughts on each picture. The 1st place gets 3 points, the 2nd place 2 points, and the last one 1 point. Based on this scoring, the iPhone 16 Pro came out on top for me with 67 points, making it a clear winner. The S24 followed with 58 points, and the Pixel came in last with 55 points.
    What's interesting is how often each phone produced the worst result. In my opinion, the Pixel took the worst shot 12 times, the same as the S24. The iPhone 16 Pro, however, only ranked last 5 times and managed to deliver the best picture 11 times, just like the S24. However, due to the number of poor shots, the S24 fell behind.
    In conclusion, if you want a camera that consistently delivers good quality, the iPhone is the way to go. But if you’re looking for the best pictures in certain categories and don’t mind some drastic variations in quality, the S24 might be a good choice. The Pixel isn't worth considering if it’s more than €200 more expensive than the S24; otherwise, it could make sense.

    I like your intent to be unbiased, and the photo results were the best of what you had to work with at the time. It must have been challenging to enjoy a night out with family while also focusing on this project. I would say there was a missed opportunity here. I would have given each of you a theme and challenged each of you to take your top 10 shots from a day of shooting with each phone. It doesn't have to be about having the same exact photo, just matching the parameters. Then come back and compare. The results may have changed how everything got tallied up in the end.

      @@iqbalhardito3020 Ahh - Google! Thank you for finding that.
      JerryRigEverything on UA-cam does a teardown of the iPhone 16 Pro Max, and we can see the sensors are rectangles, but we only have the width of the sensor to go with in figuring the focal length for lenses to be normal, wide, and tele.
      A normal lens (what the eye sees) is equal to the hypotenuse of one half of the sensor. And in the days of film, the diagonal of a single frame of film. A telephoto lens is longer than that, and a wide lens shorter than that length.
      From Google:
      “The iPhone 16 Pro Max has several camera sensors with different sizes, including:
      Main camera: 48MP Sony IMX903 sensor with a 1/1.14" sensor size
      Ultrawide camera: 48MP sensor with a 1/2.6" sensor size
      Telephoto camera: 12MP sensor with a 1/3.06" sensor size
      Front camera: 12MP sensor with a 1/3.6" sensor size”
      So the ultra wide lens sensor is 1/2.6" which is 25mm/31.5mm assuming a square sensor.
      And the main lens sensor is 1/1.14” which is 25mm/28.5mm assuming a square sensor.
      And from JerryRigEverything we know the sensors are not square. We still don’t know the actual sizes of each sensor. Why is that important? Well…
      …again the focal length of what would be a normal lens is equal to the diagonal of the sensor. A wider angle would be shorter than the diagonal, and a telephoto longer than the diagonal. Actually it’s the length of a hypotenuse of one half of the sensor.
      31.5mm squared = 992.25mm
      25mm squared = 625m
      And 992.25mm plus 626mm = 1617.25mm
      The square root of 1617.25 = 40.21mm assuming the sensor is square.
      Thus a “Normal” lens for an iPhone 16 Pro Max would need a focal length of 40.21mm. Longer than this would be a telephoto lens, and shorter than this would be wide angle lens. Again assuming the sensor is square.
      Apparently Apple gives sensor size in inches but lens focal length in millimeters. I converted the ultra wide and main sensor sizes to millimeters. And Apple’s terminology for the Main lens calls it a Wide lens, but not as wide as the Ultra Wide.

    So, to break it down:

    Telephoto Lens- Galaxy and Pixel trade blows
    Front Camera- Pixel wins (by a country mile)🗿
    Extra modes:
    Portrait mode: iPhone and Galaxy trade blows (Pixel's is a disaster, my goodness☠️)
    Macro shots: Pixel and Galaxy trade blows (tho it might have been a one-off when iPhone's messed up the focus, I dunno)
    And then video wasn't mentioned here, but I'm pretty sure we all know that iPhone wins in that category by a landslide lol. However, a boosted video from the Pixel will absolutely give it competition, but that does take a long time to process.

    Max, with the macro shot of the flower - you guys need to understand something, the iPhone although it has a 48MP ultrawide sensor, it's still pixel binning so the sensor is really the same 12MP sensor divided to 4.. AND besides that, when the iPhone uses macro mode, it uses a 12MP state not the 48MP (pixel binning) state. So it order to have better macro shot you should disable macro and move closer to the object with the ultrawide lens. That way you'll get a much more detailed macro shot

    This is the problem with tech nowadays - consumers/non-photographers see an overly sharpened image and think it's 'better', which in turn makes phone companies throw even more post processing at their photos. Phone photography is in an absolute state right now. We need *less* processing, not more! Marques Brownlee has a whole video on this. For what it's worth, I'm an iPhone owner.

    I don't get how extremely biased they were at choosing photos, some images were shot really bad, kinda on purpose. While sometimes all images were terrible, so I didn't give any points. Overall 8 points for iPhone, 6 points for Pixel, 10 points for Samsung. The rest of the pictures were with complete flaws or terrible at all

    Thanks for the work and enjoyable commentary! The Pixel gives extraordinary results in some shots but looks a bit flat in others and what's going on with what is and isn't blurred, hopefully an update will improve. I was disappointed not to see a clear winner in my scoring, would have liked to have seen some action shots, but I'm going to assume the iPhone does best in video, unless you shoot 8K in good light, in which case the S24 probably edges it?
    Anyway! My gut tells me I should check back in a couple of months time to see who has done best with updates, I suspect it will probably be the Pixel, though by then will the S25 be on the horizon?!

    It’s not a surprise. Android fanboys always think it’s better because more MP, the iPhone destroyed them!
