That selfie and nighttime portrait shots from S21 Ultra really blew my mind
They got a software update not so long ago. Further improving the portrait, night mode and 4k video and its absolutely staggering
Yeah that's just the perk of a big sensor
We're at a point where all of them look super good. Nothing to compare anyways 😂
dekuuuuuu
Exactly
No shit. You're just trying to cover the oneplus. Tbh its bad "HaSseLBlaD" 🗿
...except for video, when the OnePlus 9 Pro records 8k at 30fps and 120fps at 4k 😀

S21 ultra has 3x portrait now with latest update and camera really improved!
Yeah I see now.
Did they improve the main sensor?
@@deadlyalliance8281 yes.. in video much better than before
@@CK-ox2br how? What are the actual patch notes?
Not gonna lie that's what I don't like about android phones, they release a smartphone somewhat raw and not polished then it takes about 3 to 6 month for the update to come out to fix certain issues related to camera! While camera works solid from day 1 of new iPhone release, they might add new feature with update but not much bug fixing or improvement going on. Everytime new android smartphone comes out and the youtubers be "Samsung addressed this issue and there is will an update fixing current issue and etc". When you buy iPhone you can say it just works fine from day 1.
S21U wins for me. man, they really nailed it this year.
They would crush if they stick to the setup like Apple and refine them!

I don't think I would be upset with any of the cameras on these new flagships!!
Still oneplus 9 is newer and kinda disappointed me, despite the BOLD advertisements and statements about Hasselblad partnership! Soon we might see Galaxy Note 21 ultra and iPhone 13 Pro and Oneplus 9 pro will fall behind even harder. iPhone 12 pro max was released last year!

S21U (Exynos UK) just been updated for portrait mode on the 3x zoom lens - white balance much improved also.
Much awaited and guessing more improvement on the way. That's Samsung for you. They keeps improving with the updates and also bringing more features.
X3 portrait of people is so bad..... The smoothening is awful, it seems out of focus.. i hope samsung will fix this quickly
Really!? I just got a update this morning on the SD version. Hope I got that feature
Actually you can now take portrait with the regular camera. It was restricted to either ultrawide or telephoto prior to this.
They updated the s21 series and each one have their own changes between the s21, s21+ and s21 ultra. They added 3x for portrait on the s21 ultra and added portrait for the main on the s21+. Kind of confusing but either way I'm glad they're updating things. Samsung really supports their devices, that's actually why I picked them this time around 😊
They're all great. There's also barely any cues to figure out which is which, awesome nowadays that you can choose your favorite brand and get an amazing camera.
They all have an area of expertise. For Apple, it would be video quality. For Samsung, it would be zoom shots. And for OnePlus, it would be the ultrawide lens. Pick your favorite.
@@Tom_Stevens617 Oneplus also has very good video performance
@@GeraltOfRivia69 Yes, but the 12 Pro ekes out a win. See, this is the thing. All 3 phones have very good cameras. Their area of expertise is where they are only slightly better than competition.

12 pro max, 9
The S21 Ultra wins for me!!😊
If only we could get Apple’s video, Samsung’s zoom and selfie cameras and OnePlus’ ultrawide all in one phone, what a killer that would be!
I mean, it would probably cost over 1500 bucks, but I'd still buy it anyways considering how good the phone would be overall apart from the camera too
You can. There is one.
@@ocb05 which ??
@@kapilaseth9399 mi 11 ultra.
@KNAX_NO4H iphone 13 series will only get slightly bigger sensor in the ultrawide. It will come nowhere close to the OP9 Pro ultrawide hardware (sensor 50 MP, f/2.2, 14mm (ultrawide), 1/1.56", 1.0µm).
As per telephoto, the iPhone will only rumored to get periscope zoom in 2023, so 2.5 more years of waiting. Meanwhile Samsung will become zoom king for another 2.5 years until Apple solution comes.
i'm in love with my s21 ultra camera!!
S21 ultra king of the camera
Samsung take my money.
My money is on S21 Ultra.
Right now, S21 Ultra has got the best cameras.

I feel like with the ultra wide shots, I was able to pick out the oneplus 9 because it has better distortion control at the edges. They also seem to really crush the blacks in comparison to the others.
Another great video guys!
Thanks Matt!
What about m11 ultra vs p50pro' vs dlsr...........cant wait. :)
@@MaxTechOfficial hey bro, next time plz compare video, cause thats the main strength of iphone,
S21 ultra 🔥🔥
Shout-out from Liberty Lake here! Nice to know we have a local youtube celeb in our area. Keep up the good work Max!
The OnePlus or "Hasselblad" colors always remind me of the Red (cinema camera manufacturer) colors. Very natural and neutral.
Really impressive night performance of the Oneplus and great colors with the main and UW cameras... it's a shame that they didn't put the same effort on the selfie and tele cameras, also portrait mode is behind the other two. You can have night mode on the selfie and tele if you install the GCam (works great in mine)
So mine was:
S21 Ultra - 13
12 Pro Max - 9
OnePlus 9 - 8
It was all so tight! But OnePlus is Ultrawide king, S21 overall, and 12 Pro Max is just great. It was tough but S21 has suuuuch a great camera modules...
For me, it was 12 - 12 Pro max
11- S21 ultra and 7 for op9 lol
For me, it was

@@ranjitshah246 exynos is a pocket cooker! piece of sh*t
Having Vadim and Max side by side tripped me up the entire time
Why??
I’m sorry but everyone who thinks they’re the same are dumb. They don’t even look like brothers to me.
Such a fun video and great way to compare! S21U wins with 13 for me. 12 PM and OP9P are close with 9 and 8. So interesting how each have strengths in certain situations and all are good enough that it is largely subjective based on tastes. I rely on zoomed shots much more than ultrawide, so S21U is my fave.
Till now I did not know they both are different person even after seeing almost every video 😂😂
😐lol
Awesome having all of you in the video. great stuff.

I chose One Plus shots before knowing what phone were they taken from because of 1 reason that I think you guys didn't notice: Color accuracy is just insane on the 9 Pro!
Agreed!!
Great cameras, just as we're about to get into the new era of mobile cameras with the upcoming 1 inch mobile sensors. I almost wish I had waited on the S21 Ultra, as I got it just a month or so before hearing the 1 inch sensors are coming, but I'm happy with it so far anyway.
Love to see you all together :)! Thanks for the great video!
The new S21U update adds the 3x lens to portrait mode which is really good.

the new update is so poor. i need a astro mode for my s21 ultra. 4 minuts record like the google pixel.
@@zieoxdrive7160 you can use Gcam
is it possible to share the sample pics? cannot see much details without zooming in.
I always love this videos, the last time s21 won for a big margin. My scores were 13 s21 ultra, 9one plus, 8 iphone pro max
This was a great comparison. It was fun and definitely showed that personal choice matters. The iPhone and S21 cameras are certainly not enough to sway one from ios or Android. I just switched to Apple for the first time ever, for my phone, for different reasons. Great video!
Was there any software improvement on the focus of the 12 pro max? I know you can take close up photos with the telephoto, I feel like lately my phone isn’t as good as auto focusing but maybe the macro shots look a bit better?
I always watch ur camera comparisons at 4k 😂😂 btw u guys are best. 😁
Deep fusion is clearly working on Textures and patterns, it’s funny when 12 MP sensor is producing more detail than higher MP. 😅

You should change to view the images on a bigger screen, like a TV.
You guys didn't do the justice with the s21 ultra's macro shot. With the focus enhancing mode s21 ultra's macro shots are the beast
Yess...
I feel like macroshot and detail are different things, even though s21 ultra might be able to focus closely the detail of skin is next level for the iPhone!
Great way to make a camera comparison more interesting and fun
Great job guys👍
Very good content and very objective appreciation ! I like this test!
I want to see:
iPhone 12 vs OnePlus 9 vs Samsung S21 vs Pixel 5
S21 ultra any time
Awesome video. I loved that the test was blind to help get rid of biases. More people need to do more UA-cam videos like this one!
Somebody forgot to put out an April fools video
OnePlus 9 pro - 7
iPhone 12 Pro Max- 9
S21 Ultra- 14
the same! )
Really appreciate the video. I love the blind tests. The only caveat for me would be your purposeful limiting of camera shots in order to keep the playing ground equal. Why? If a camera has superior optics, shouldn't that be part of your ranking? Limiting the macro to a distance that the iPhone can handle is a good example. Same with zoom. There's no contest in these two areas with the ultra on 10x zoom vs iphone's 2.5x, and a 4cm oneplus macro compared to 11.43 cm on the iphone. Cheers!
Omg I am at the 4th picture and this is by far the hardest video... all those pictures are soo simmilar!
overall Samsung S21 Ultra is the Winner and king phone 2021 🥰
Might be in camera aspect but speed wise 12 pro max tops the table
@@manojprabakar9244 it's useless even when you try to cover it by saying "longevity".

Such a great comparison video format. Very good for picking which phone take best photos (in your opinion). Please make another video like this for iPhone 13 pro, and Pixel 6 pro.
I picked the s21 ultra most of the time.
I thought they were two if the same people
Left guy is like john travolta
I was looking for such comparison of camera pics.... Thank you so much sharing these reviews 🥰🥰🥰
iPhone 9, Samsung 10, OnePlus 11... and I've heard that there have been updates that help with OnePlus, so it would be interesting to see how they would compare now. Looking at comments, there seems to be a preference for Samsung for many and for the restit seems the scores are fairly even when averaged out. I then look at cost (don't forget to add a charger if it didn't come with it to even out the pricing), repair ease, ability to sideload the apps I want on my phone, support, etc. my preference is leaning towards the OnePlus Pro.
I got 11 for the iPhone 12 Pro Max, 10 for the S21 Ultra and 9 for the OnePlus 9 Pro. Very close!!!
For me, it was 12 - 12 Pro max
11- S21 ultra and 7 for op9 lol
Good to see iPhone still holding up with that humble hardware. S21 Ultra is just the best flagship. No flagship in the recent past has blown the competition to this extent.
It's that exynos variant s21 or snapdragon? Btw great comparison master on eyes and tests👍 Blessings
Btw, i take it your S21 runs on snapdragon?Maybe do another comparison of the
Exynos vs snapdragon S21 ultra?
S21 Ultra wins easily , quality is almost same as iphone 12 pro max but S21U gives you far more features like u can use Ultrawide as macro , far better zoom, more features like Director's view .

Guys, I’ve seen many such reviews between them. It’s always the lady pics the iPhone pics the most. So the conclusion is ladies will love the pics from iPhone ✌️
Cause they are good? U are trying to say that the iphone camera is bad? Always mekong excuses and shit the android users
Usually iphone 12npro max on portrait shots and video is unbeaten from any phone existing . But this video is very nice show capability of those 3nphones . Thanks for this video great job. Any of those 3 phones are great it's personal preferences if you want to buy one of those 3.
Have you used 1.4 setting on iPhone portrait mode or standard 2.8 aperture ?

Pause and give a slight shake.
Guess you can see something illusional
Yh cool
Wait! they're actually two different guys....OMG!! For the longest time I just thought you just gain and lose weight b/w videos. LMAO
😂
I'm so happy after I told S21 gonna win to myself before watching the video!
really enjoyed this!
It's very nice having 3 different opinions, makes it mo better!
12 pro max for me takes the cake
iPhone: 12
OnePlus: 7
Samsung: 10
3 very good phones. Conclusions I take from this video (in random order). 1) they can all take beautiful and bad pictures. 2) zoom S21 all the way 3) night time, mostly 12pro. It makes pictures look more like nighttime. Sky is more black. 4) ultra wide OP9. 5) selfies S21.
What I miss in the video is true white balance. What's beautiful is objective, but starting with correct white balance helps. How mutch room does the file allow for editing without looking ridiculous? I did see a difference between my screen on the TV Vs your iPad of you film it. So settings of your display will influence how you see the pictures. I would go with OP9 if it wasn't so close to the price of the other 2. But I hope my phone will last at least half a year more. Next models will be even better. Sensor size is growing. The least I get is that the" older" models will get cheaper.
It is a very efficient way of letting buyers know which phones provide the best quality pictures.
It will be nice to include some Xaiomi phones also !
11 for One OnePlus9, 10 for S21 Ultra, and 9 for 12 Pro Max
iPhone wins quite a number of shots. To proves, megapixels isn't everything. just saying. Even with only 12MP, you can still have great quality photos.
MP is nothing unless the quality.
I think what give the 12 Pro Max the advantage in certain shots is the LiDAR Scanner. It really does help the camera know exactly what to focus on in low light or portrait shots. But wow it's crazy just to see how far the camera tech has come. I mean even 5 years ago, this level of camera quality would be unthinkable. Yet here we are. All these flagship devices are just killer. It feels like it simply all comes down to personal preference in most shots.
A wash same number for each!
Good idea for a comparison. I Enjoyed getting a chance to view the images and reach my own conclusion.
For Me:
15 - Samsung S21 Ultra
8 - Oneplus 9 Pro
7 - Iphone 12 Pro Max
I feel like at this point you know the characteristics of iPhone 12 Pro Max, and Samsung S21 Ultra to easily pick them out of the crowd. I missed picking iPhone for a few pics, but for the most part I could easily tell which one was iPhone now. And OnePlus was just crushed blacks which left S21 for the other. I think it's time to bring on the parents for the blind test lol.
did you try it with the latest 11.2.2.2 update though? ( Oneplus )
Great comparison. Can't go wrong with either of these three phones.
I'm loving the camera on the S21 Ultra.
S21 Beast 🔥
Op9 5
S21 14
Ip12 11
Good comparaison like always !
I have the 12 pro max and S21 ultra and i love macro photography so i was suprised about the winner on this section, i've been doing a lot of tests about the macro and the iphone is really bad for close up shot, it can't focus closer than 8cm compared the the Samsung which has a really good auto focus and gets really close. I get to the same distance as the iphone with a macro lens clip on with the samsung without it and it's way more clearer on the samsung.
So i wonder, did you juste use the 2,5x zoom for this ?
I really wanted to keep the iphone but the awful focus close up and 60Hz display make me want to sell it and keep the Samsung.
If anybody knows if the iphone 12 pro max can do real macro without any additional lenses (which will not happen from what i've searched because it's just the lens that can't focus this close) let me know !
Does the 9 Pro stop have issues with the purple hue or has that been fixed?
1st: Samsung 2.iPhone 3.OnePlus
Omg I was waiting for this video rather than becoming an april fool🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great test but next time keep the photos on camera for longer! They're shown for a couple seconds and then the camera keeps switching back to you for too long, guys. It makes it hard to follow, especially your comments. Keep your appearances less frequent and shorter!
I still feel being bias towards the iPhone, Eg. @9:23 in the selfie portrait iPhone in the middle completely messed up the dynamic range behind and overexposing the back and you guys didn't bother to point it out. I have seen the same type of bias in SuperSaf's one of the videos.
I mean look at how the S21 KILLED IT at 14:36 and 16:53. The detail is so much better. S21 is indeed the king!
On 16:53 the iPhone was much better.
Fact: You just can't beat Samsung and Apple camera setup and their crazy optimization.
OnePlus 9/9Pro 👎
They have by far the best computation for photography and videos.
Yeah at this point I think it's Samsung, , Google and the rest! Google's software is really good but they lack in hardware, their phones don't have big battery, the chipset is not Snapsragon 8th series, and then camera hardware itself is old, and it doesn't have telephoto lens which is good for zooming and portrait shots, when you take portraits on pixel it is very wide field of view. Pixel 5 has same camera sensor as pixel 3, they only upgrade it through software but hardware is lacking behind!
